Institutions et mécanismes de gouvernance des transactions :

2013

Institutions and governance mechanisms for transactions : the case of logging in Cameroon Following Masahiko Aoki (2010), we postulate that transactions between actors integrate not only an economic dimension but also a social dimension. This means that transactions’ equilibrium cannot be analyzed only in economic terms. They also include relational aspects that we define as social aspects. Through the study of a local forestry exploitation in Cameroon compared with a communal forestry exploitation in France, we highlight two crucial factors : the dissociation of the functions of mayor and chief of village and the coexistence of payments in cash and payments in nature. The first factor unde…

Sicilian Palaentological geosites: Knowledege, protection and exploitation of the palaentological heritage

2009

A view of the vegetation and economic exploitation of the forest in the Late Neolithic sites of Les Jovades and Niuet (Alicante, Spain)

1992

SummaryThe results of the charcoal analysis obtained in two open air sites of the Late Neolithic, although contrasting with what is known so far about their economy, as well as with the results of different palaeoamblental studies undertaken in other sites, mainly caves with long sequences, within the same area or in other near areas, form the main interest of this paper. We will begin presenting the data pertaining to both sites individually which, in the final part, will be assessed in order to reach a better understanding of the relationship between men and their natural environment during the Neolithic period.

Voluntary Agreements to Promote the Use of Reclaimed Water at Tordera River Basin

2015

The voluntary agreement to promote the use of reclaimed water is an economic policy instrument (EPI) which focuses on improving water management by using reclaimed water. Following a win-win strategy, this EPI was implemented in the Tordera river basin (Spain), an area with endemic water scarcity problems and high competition among users for water resources. The assessment of the EPI suggests that significant positive outcomes have achieved from an environmental and economic point of view. Thus, the demand of freshwater has decreased and the availability of water is guaranteed even during summer period allowing therefore for the maintenance of economic activities (agriculture and golf cours…

Pedagogia interculturale

2015

Il volume mette a fuoco gli aspetti teorici ed operativi dell'educazione interculturale: i concetti, le analisi, le prospettive e le indicazioni operative. Un testo per capire come la globalizzazione e la crescente compresenza di più usi, costumi, lingue e religioni rendano la prospettiva della didattica interculturale sempre più centrale, e ineludibile, anche per la scuola italiana. Per superare le visioni che leggono l'emigrazione e i contesti multiculturali in termini di disagio e di rischio e considerare le culture come realtà dinamiche, in continua evoluzione e il loro confronto come una grande risorsa, anche dal punto di vista educativo. Uno strumento pensato per quanti hanno a cuore …

Appropriate technology in a Solovian nonlinear growth model

2007

We propose a Solovian growth model with a convex-concave production function and international technological spillovers. We test the empirical implications of the model, analysing the effects of the productivity slowdown that followed the oil shocks of the 1970s. We argue that this slowdown, altering the world income distribution, affected the pattern of international technological spillovers, taking the poorest countries further away from the technological leaders, and therefore unable to exploit their technologies. The result is the emergence of a poverty trap for low-income countries.

Building sustainable contextual ambidexterity through routines: a case study from information technology firms

2020

The purpose of this paper is to explain the role that routines play in achieving sustainable organisational ambidexterity in information technology (IT) firms. Our exploratory analysis of four case studies reveals the key importance of routines in setting the context for sustainable ambidexterity. Companies build up contextual ambidexterity through routines derived from normalization of processes, normalization of skills, and normalization of results. The findings of the study show that routines support IT professionals to decide whether to exploit or explore in each particular case. Firstly, the enabling character of explicit routines as a result of the normalisation of work processes and …

La migración femenina, el trabajo doméstico asalariado y la violación de los derechos humanos

2015

The feminization of migrations, especially in the Mediterranean countries of Europe, is associated with new forms of exploitation of migrant labor. This article aims to analyze from this point of view the market of domestic and care work of migrant women in the homes of Italian families, placing it in relation to the deficiencies of national social policies. The analysis of this phenomenon in the Italian context - developed with the support of a series of interviews with migrant workers - reveals about these women and their families of origin the violation of certain fundamental human rights : primarily the right to the family unity, bound by the rules of family reunification, by the cohabi…

On Apache Log4j2 Exploitation in Aeronautical, Maritime, and Aerospace Communication

2022

Apache Log4j2 is a prevalent logging library for Java-based applications. In December 2021, several critical and high-impact software vulnerabilities, including CVE-2021-44228, were publicly disclosed, enabling remote code execution (RCE) and denial of service (DoS) attacks. To date, these vulnerabilities are considered critical and the consequences of their disclosure far-reaching. The vulnerabilities potentially affect a wide range of internet of things (IoT) devices, embedded devices, critical infrastructure (CI), and cyber-physical systems (CPSs). In this paper, we study the effects and feasibility of exploiting these vulnerabilities in mission-critical aviation and maritime environment…

Ancianos maltratados, ancianos que maltratan: abuso, negligencia, 'mobbing' y otras formas 'normales' de maltrato

2011

El artículo repasa la tipología más común del maltrato 'físico, emocional, sexual, económico-, así como la negligencia; y el abuso de confianza y la explotación por parte de las personas más próximas, como otras formas de maltrato consideradas 'normales'. La experiencia de la autora se basa en el ejercicio profesional coordinando un SAD para mayores durante veinticinco años, y recogido en su obra, '¿Se puede?'Trabajo social en domicilios de ancianos', premiado por el Colegio profesional de Cataluña y publicado en el 2009. A partir de ahí, propone una reflexión sobre una situación cada vez más extendida, pero que es encubierta por los propios mayores, y que exige a los profesionales informac…
