Communalism e terza rivoluzione
2015
This paper analyses the thought of political philospher Murray Bookchin from the points of view of his Communalism and of his peculiar vision of a third devolution for the XXI century.
Del Comune, o un’etica per il XXI secolo?
2021
This article proposes an ethical reinterpretation of Dardot and Laval's analyses of the concept of the "commune", published in 2014. The circulation of ethical arguments and the activation of a line of thought related to public ethics can indeed contribute to finding an answer to some objections moved to the proposal of the commune. This is the intention of my contribution, which focuses in particular on the question of the subjectivity implied, or rather evoked by the theoretical-political proposal of the French thinkers.
Social Space for Self-Organising: An Exploratory Study of Timebanks in Finland and in the UK
2018
The article examines the challenges to self-organisation and upscaling of alternative economies from the viewpoint of defending and negotiating social space. Timebanks in Finland and the UK are presented as examples, analysing the difference of defending such social space in the contexts of a traditional welfare state (in the case of Finland) and an austerity-driven government with a “Big Society” ideology (in the case of UK). Both systems of government present different kinds of pressures on timebanks, pushing them to a given ontological categories and to action in accordance with pre-defined political goals. This difference, along with timebank reactions and the question of prospects of o…
The Community of the Self
2016
The essay examines the hermeneutical criticism of Hegelian recognition, showing that this is based on the thesis of a reductive vision of the meaning of the negative in the Hegelian dialectic. According to hermeneutical thinking, despite his criticism of the abstract universal and his understanding of negation as relationship, Hegel doesn’t get definitely rid of the merely ‘logical’ sense of negation in terms of exclusion or elimination. Thus he conceives recognition as a definitive overcoming of diversity, and therefore of otherness. However, reconsidering the radical Hegelian recognition of reciprocity, the essay attempts to reverse this critical thesis showing how the very hermeneutical …
L'attaccamento ai luoghi come modello interpretativo delle relazioni dell'uomo con la cultura. Una ricerca su un campione di ragazzi tunisini della c…
2014
L'attaccamento al luogo è un essenziale bisogno umano in grado di nutrire il senso dell'identità di individui e collettività, a prescindere dai cambiamenti della società. Intento principale in questo lavoro di tesi è quello dell'integrazione, legato al fenomeno dell' intercultura. Il lavoro di tesi è riferito nello specifico nella città di Mazara del Vallo, centro nevralgico di incontro di culture. Ho scelto di indagare la percezione del luogo da parte della popolazione immigrata, coinvolgendo in particolare gli adolescenti che costituiscono la cosiddetta "seconda generazione", e confrontandone le opinioni con quelle espresse dai coetanei autoctoni. L'aspetto più propriamente statistico rig…
Language in Complexity. The Emerging Meaning
2017
This contributed volume explores the achievements gained and the remaining puzzling questions by applying dynamical systems theory to the linguistic inquiry. In particular the book is divided into three parts, each one addressing of the following topics: a) Facing complexity in the right way: mathematics and complexity; b) Complexity and theory of language; c) From empirical observation to formal models: investigations of specifici linguistic phenomena, like enunciation, deixis, or the meaning of the metaphorical phrases.
La comprensione dell’altro tra spiegazioni mentalistiche e pratiche situate
2014
This essay presents current criticisms against a “mentalistic” interpretation of the practice of understanding others as providing some reasons for a redefinition of the structure of the problem rather than for its deconstruction. More specifically, I hypothesize that the problem of reconciling the practical status of our understanding with the reflective stance needed to understand and assess apparently “out of context” behavior is a legitimate one, and that the analysis of the normative structure of cooperative interaction provided by John Searle and Paul Grice can provide us with the tools to deal with this problem.
Dalla parte dell'ascoltatore. Un approccio pragma-retorico alla comprensione
2019
L’intento principale del saggio è mostrare quanto possa essere vantaggioso guardare al fenomeno della comprensione linguistica utilizzando l’apparato concettuale della retorica classica, messo in fruttuoso dialogo con la pragmatica contemporanea. La legittimità di tale operazione si fonda sulla convinzione che sia proficuo estendere lo specifico punto di vista della retorica al discorso ordinario nel suo complesso. Tale estensione non implica in alcun modo negare la specificità del punto di vista retorico sul linguaggio ma mira anzi a sfruttarla, per fare emergere aspetti altrimenti poco valorizzati. È vero, infatti, che la retorica si occupa tradizionalmente di un tipo particolare di disco…
Creativity in Conceptual Spaces
2014
The main aim of this paper is contributing to what in the last few years has been known as computational creativity. This will be done by showing the relevance of a particular mathematical representation of G"ardenfors's conceptual spaces to the problem of modelling a phenomenon which plays a central role in producing novel and fruitful representations of perceptual patterns: analogy.
Computational Intelligence and Citizen Communication in the Smart City
2016
Information and communication are at the core of the intelligent city of tomorrow, and the key components of a smart city cannot prescind from data exchanges and interconnectedness. Citizen communication is an integral part of the smart city’s development plans: freedom of information and involvement in collective decisions, e-democracy and decision-making feedback can be greatly enhanced in an intelligent city, and, among other smart city components, foster a new era of participation and wise decisions. In this contribution we describe the methodologies that can be implemented in order to correctly develop automatic recognition systems for citizen communication, paying special attention to…
