Learning From Mistakes: The Role of Phages in Pandemics

2021

The misuse of antibiotics is leading to the emergence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria, and in the absence of available treatments, this has become a major global threat. In the middle of the recent severe acute respiratory coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic, which has challenged the whole world, the emergence of MDR bacteria is increasing due to prophylactic administration of antibiotics to intensive care unit patients to prevent secondary bacterial infections. This is just an example underscoring the need to seek alternative treatments against MDR bacteria. To this end, phage therapy has been proposed as a promising tool. However, further research in the field is mandatory to assure…

Gilles Deleuze i Félix Guattari: per una política menor. Una anàlisi sobre la crisi del model representatiu, o com assumir el repte d'articular la vi…

2016

En aquest treball analitzem les alternatives que, principalment des dels moviments socials i a través de les noves subjectivitats emergents i no assimilades pel sistema de poder establert, es proposen per a l'articulació de les relacions en el camp social, al marge del model neoliberal i de les formes de representació tradicionalment vinculades a aquest model; tot plegat, emmarcat dins els darrers cicles de lluites sorgits al voltant de l'any 2011. Així mateix, posem el focus d'atenció en els precedents que trobem per aquest costat, a saber: les lluites protagonitzades pel moviment obrer durant la segona meitat del segle XIX i principis del XX -la qual cosa ens permet analitzar algunes de l…

Cultural institutions as agents of urban and community regeneration in the (post-)pandemic city. The case of the «Laboratorio Zen Insieme» in Palermo

2022

Although all cities in the world have been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, its impacts on the territories, yet to be understood, are unevenly distributed, revealing extremely varied imbalances depending on the places. However, it is clear that the virus and its variants have aggravated pre-existing socio-spatial inequalities, creating new ones and bringing attention back to those implications between space, planning, public health and citizenship that are at the origins of contemporary urbanism. In a reference framework in which the crisis is globalized but unequal and in the absence of a welfare system capable of responding to the urgencies of the most marginalized social contexts and g…

Olsen 2018Settore ICAR/21 - UrbanisticaSettore M-GGR/01 - GeografiaSacco and Blessi 2009). In the current (post-) pandemic context and through the lens of a southern European perspective the purpose of this article is to critically reflect about the role of culture as possible vehicle of urban and community regeneration. In particular we will focus on the activities of the no profit organization «Laboratorio Zen Insieme» in ZEN2 one of the last large popular and peripheral neighborhoods built in Palermo at the end of 80s in order to explore and understand how cultural practices work as agent of urban and social transformation capable of addressing emerging issues especially in the pandemic scenario we are experiencing. Thecasestudy has been conducted through analysis of documents participative observations (Honer and Hitzler 2015) and qualitative in-depth interviews with key actors involved in the conception organization and management of the activities carried out by Laboratorio Zen Insieme with representatives of local institutions and non-formal conversations with participants of the workshops heldin the neighborhood. The experience we narrate finds that cultural practices have re-conceptualized their design and functions as strategies of urban and community regeneration and at the same time have contributed to answer to emergent issues in developing proximity and local based strategies facing up to problems inherent civil rights educationalpoverty socio-spatial justice and have changed the image and identity of urban places they inhabit.In this sense the research provides a framework for development of strategies and legitimization for cultural practices and a point of discussionabouttheirrolein urban development.Although all cities in the world have been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic its impacts on the territories yet to be understood are unevenly distributed revealing extremely varied imbalances depending on the places. However it is clear that the virus and its variants have aggravated pre-existing socio-spatial inequalities creating new ones and bringing attention back to those implications between space planning public health and citizenship that are at the origins of contemporary urbanism. In a reference framework in which the crisis is globalized but unequal and in the absence of a welfare system capable of responding to the urgencies of the most marginalized social contexts and groups a response to the new social and individual needs has been offered by cultural institutions that play a role of territorial agency often independently or in the absence of political institutions. Far from the idea of entertainment and divertissement it is in fact increasingly clear how the practices of cultural innovation experimenting with various forms of action and participation can in some cases play a fundamental role in the processes of social cohesion and community building representing an antidote to the worsening of the phenomena of marginalization and socio-spatial inequalities within cities and territories (Colantonio and Dixon 2011

Critical Naturalism

2021

In this paper I map the conceptual framework of naturalism, its ontological implications and its current projection in the field of neurophilosophy. I show how critical naturalism formally differs from radical ontological naturalisms, both global and sectoral, in order to become a critical instance. Its theoretical implications lead to a definition of natural causality from the emergentist perspective and to metaphysical scenarios ranging from ontological pluralism to noumenal monism. En este artículo llevo a cabo una cartografía conceptual del naturalismo, de sus presupuestos ontológicos y su proyección actual en el ámbito neurofilosófico. Muestro cómo el naturalismo crítico diverge de los…

Case Studies of Macro-and Microplastics Pollution in Coastal Waters and Rivers: Is There a Solution With New Removal Technologies and Policy Actions?.

2020

This opinion paper on microplastics pollution has selected different aspects and case studies of micro and macro-plastic litter pollution in coastal waters, and rivers. We point out a discussion on this topic and ask ourselves if there is a solution to the global problem by developing new microplastics removal technologies as well as policy actions. The first two case studies are related with macroplastics marine litter in beaches, a third report describes a new simple sampling device for microplastics in coastal and nearshore areas, five case study assess microplastics pollution in worldwide coastal environments, sediments and catchments (India, Mexico, Australia, Europe and the Nordic Sea…

I beni relazionali nei gruppi di formazione universitaria: un contributo di ricerca

2009

The aim of the study is to identify relational goods in the transcriptions produced by sound recording of a median group experience at University of Palermo. In particular, the present work proposes to analyze the most representative qualities of this phenomenon and summarized them in the following indicators: 1) emergent fact; 2) recognition; 3) solidarity. Our theoretical hypothesis is based on the fundamental group analytic epistemological assumption that defines relation as the beginning of the development of human psyche and considers the Group a primary matrix in which originate subjectivity and human relationship (Lo Verso, 1994; Mitchell, 2000). Therefore, the group becomes the elec…

Vino e mercati emergenti: il caso della Colombia

2014

Il vino, dal punto di vista economico, è uno dei prodotti più importanti e complessi dell’agricoltura; a livello internazionale, il mercato mondiale del vino è stato, negli ultimi anni, oggetto di profondi cambiamenti che hanno interessato la produzione ed il consumo. La produzione mondiale viene dai Paesi tradizionalmente produttori come la Francia, l’Italia e la Spagna, e dai nuovi produttori come gli USA, l’Australia, il Cile e l’Argentina. In Colombia, le prime indicazioni dell'arrivo del vino, risalgono al 12 ottobre dell'anno 1492 con Cristoforo Colombo; le prime importazioni di vino iniziarono già nell'anno 1534, ma subito dopo, sotto la pressione dei commercianti spagnoli che si ved…
