The impurity of praxis : Arendt and Agamben
2023
AbstractIf politics is understood as a foundational and open-ended activity, a general problem that arises from such a framing concerns the question of how to sustain the possibility of continuous openings without converting action into permanence and closure. In this article, we approach this problematic by treating Hannah Arendt as an exemplary figure in the current of political thought that emphasizes the indeterminate nature of action. We focus more specifically on how Arendt addressed the question of sustaining action by exploring the role of forgiveness, promises, divided power, and principles of action in her thought. While we show that the task of sustaining the indeterminacy of act…
Biopolitika Mišela Fuko un Džordžo Agambena skatījumā: kopīgas perspektīvas meklējumi
2017
Šajā darbā tiek apskatītas Mišela Fuko un Džordžo Agambena izpratnes par biopolitikas problemātiku, meklējot kopīgu perspektīvu šo abu autoru skatījumā par to, kas ir biopolitika un kādas ir tās varas attiecības un tehnikas, kas tiek realizētas biopolitikas kontekstā. Šīs kopīgās perspektīvas iezīmēšana balstās Džordžo Agambena un Mišela Fuko darbu interpretācijā, norādot uz līdzīgo, kas atklājas koncentrācijas nometnes, Panoptikona, populācijas pārvaldības un izņēmuma stāvokļa analīzē. Abu autoru biopolitikas koncepciju atklātie kopīgie aspekti ir aktuāli arī mūsdienu kontekstā, tādējādi norādot ne tikai uz vēsturiskā analīzes produktīvajiem aspektiem, bet arī paverot ceļu jaunām perspektī…
Ķermeņa lietojums” Džordžo Agambena politiskās ontoloģijas kontekstā
2022
Šajā darbā tiek apskatīts Džordžo Agambena Homo Sacer projekts, meklējot ķermeņa lietojuma paradigmas izcelšanos un funkcionēšanas mehānismus modernajā Rietumu pasaules pārvaldībā. Maģistra darbā uzmanība vērsta uz Agambena politiskās ontoloģijas priekšstatiem, par vienu no šīs sistēmas pamatelementiem izvirzot ķermeņa lietojuma konceptu. Darbā, balstoties uz Homo Sacer grāmatu tekstiem, rasts skaidrojums lietojuma un tādējādi arī ķermeņa lietojuma nozīmei modernitātes un nākamības politiskās ontoloģijas kontekstā. Pētījumā secināts, ka ķermeņa lietojums, līdzīgi kā citas paradigmas, ir būtisks kailās dzīvības pārvaldes mehānisms, ko iespējams pārvarēt, tikai skatot esamību dzīves-formas ie…
Il sacrificio di Ifigenia fra Ditti-Settimio e Draconzio
2022
L’intervento si propone una disamina dell’episodio di Ifigenia nell’«Orestis tragoedia», presentato e analizzato sia in rapporto alla tradizione classica – in particolare, ovviamente, quella latina – tenuta presente da Draconzio nella delineazione della vicenda e nella presentazione della figura della figlia di Agamennone, sia in rapporto con la tradizione tardo-antica, in particolare con la narrazione di Ditti-Settimio. Attraverso l’analisi dell’episodio in questione, si cerca di mettere in risalto i fattori di continuità e di innovazione nel trattamento del mito di Ifigenia (e dei miti classici in generale) da parte del poeta africano. The intervention proposes an examination of the episo…
Quo plura possis, plura patienter feras. Agamennone modello di sapienza nelle Troiane di Seneca
2022
The paper deals with the quarrel between Pyrrhus and Agamemnon in the Troades, with an analysis of Greek and Latin antecedents, focusing in particular on the characterisation of the Achaean commander. The character of Agamemnon, who embodies the suffering of the defeated, shows a new model of royalty in line with Senecan ideology.
The peer review game: an agent-based model of scientists facing resource constraints and institutional pressures
2018
This paper looks at peer review as a cooperation dilemma through a game-theory framework. We built an agent-based model to estimate how much the quality of peer review is influenced by different resource allocation strategies followed by scientists dealing with multiple tasks, i.e., publishing and reviewing. We assumed that scientists were sensitive to acceptance or rejection of their manuscripts and the fairness of peer review to which they were exposed before reviewing. We also assumed that they could be realistic or excessively over-confident about the quality of their manuscripts when reviewing. Furthermore, we assumed they could be sensitive to competitive pressures provided by the ins…

The implicit motor learning use as a therapeutic tool in frail elderly people
2016
To write, take, walk, talk is a part of our daily. Our motor ability is used to change depending on our environment and our skill, acquired thanks to our experience, learnings, and according to our age. We strive to find optimal solutions, to be more performants, more efficient. But we must be able to discern to act well and act to better discern. This « perception-action » coupling is the basis of the organization of motor control. Human can discern through several sensory systems (Visual, auditory, proprioceptive) intrinsic informations, coming from his own body, and extrinsic informations, from his environment. All of these informations are in the service of the movement and actions of d…
PGC-1α, Inflammation, and Oxidative Stress: An Integrative View in Metabolism
2020
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ coactivator (PGC)-1α is a transcriptional coactivator described as a master regulator of mitochondrial biogenesis and function, including oxidative phosphorylation and reactive oxygen species detoxification. PGC-1α is highly expressed in tissues with high energy demands, and it is clearly associated with the pathogenesis of metabolic syndrome and its principal complications including obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular disease, and hepatic steatosis. We herein review the molecular pathways regulated by PGC-1α, which connect oxidative stress and mitochondrial metabolism with inflammatory response and metabolic syndrome. PGC-1α regula…
