In the name of security : Governmentality apparatus in a multilingual mine in Arctic Finland
2021
This critical sociolinguistic study explores how mining work is governed in the name of security in a mine in Arctic Finland. Although the mining industry is dominated by multinational corporations, mines themselves tend to be concentrated in peripheries where a mobile and multilingual workforce is recruited. Mining is a high-risk business: industrial accidents and environmental damage can be severe. Discursive practices play a crucial role in risk management. In this study, the nexus of language, security, and production in mining work is analyzed by applying the Foucauldian concept of 'governmentality'. The data comprise ethnographic observations, work-related documents, and interviews co…
Further development of integrated threat theory and intergroup contact: a reply to Aberson (2015)
2016
ABSTRACTThis essay furthers a dialogue about the theoretical and statistical merits of Croucher's [(2013). Integrated threat theory and acceptance of immigrant assimilation: An analysis of Muslim immigration in Western Europe. Communication Monographs, 80, 46–62] study exploring the relationships between threat from an immigrant group, belief that an immigrant wants to assimilate, and intergroup contact. Key points of divergence include assertions that (a) the relationships in the original piece are counter to previous literature/relationships, (b) the correlations presented are implausible, (c) the magnitude of the relationships is too strong, and (d) the manuscript has “odd” multiple regr…
Linguistic recycling : The process of quoting in increasingly mediatized settings
2020
“She said that he said that they said…” – This issue of the AILA Review focuses on practices of quoting by which language is recycled in new contexts, transgressing formerly clear boundaries in environments of increasing mediatization. In the introduction, we first present working definitions of our topic’s key terms (Part 1). Then, we go through the topics, outcomes, and main interconnections of the ten approaches as discussed in the papers of this issue (Part 2). Based on the insights from the discussion so far, we develop a systematic framework to analyze the formal, functional, and procedural aspects of linguistic recycling (Part 3). Finally, we touch some of the white spots of this iss…
La font de Llíria: Edició del primer milacre vicentí publicat (1822)
2014
El present treball estudia el primer milacre vicentí de què es té constància que va ser imprés: La font de Llíria. Editat anònim a València, el 1822, per primera vegada, és una mostra del teatre popular i de carrer del segle XIX i, a més de ser reeditat en diferents ocasions, arribà a inspirar altres autors posteriors. The present work studies the first trext printed wich is considered a milacre (dramatic piece about Saint Vincent Ferrer). La font de Lliria was published anonymously in Valencia, in 1822, for the first time, and it is a sample of popular theater of the nineteenth century. It has been reedited on several occasions, and it has come to inspire later authors.
Una trona sense tron. Predicació i interferència política en el barroc valencià
2014
Resum: La predicació valenciana durant el barroc presenta algunes diferències substantives amb la castellana, com ara l’absència d’un to tenebrista i condemnatori. Una altra divergència és que la ingerència política en la predicació no solament és menor, sinó que la proverbial legitimació de la monarquia adquireix entre els predicadors valencians uns matisos que la singularitzen, perquè l’enfocament «legitimador» s’adreça més als orígens del Regne —i, doncs, a Jaume I, pràcticament sacralitzat— que no a la lloança dels Habsburg, només aplaudits per la seua condició de catòlics, enemics del protestantisme. D’una manera indirecta, però persistent, s’hi albiren notes que poden avalar —bé que a…

Further notes on sociolinguistic scales
2015
AbstractThis short paper seeks to reformulate and refine the notion of sociolinguistic scales as relative scope of understandability, thus drawing the notion fully into the realm of semiotics, rather than in the rather unproductive sphere of spatiotemporal and distributional interpretation where it has been deployed. Differences in scope of understandability are differences in the presupposability of signs, and such differences are not equivalent but stratified in a polycentric environment. Scales, in that sense, point towards the non-unified and hierarchical-layered nature of the sign and of meaning making practices. Scalar effects, once established, can furthermore be carried over into di…
Experimental Observation of a Large Low-Frequency Band Gap in a Polymer Waveguide
2018
The quest for large and low-frequency band gaps is one of the principal objectives pursued in a number of engineering applications, ranging from noise absorption to vibration control, and to seismic wave abatement. For this purpose, a plethora of complex architectures (including multiphase materials) and multiphysics approaches have been proposed in the past, often involving difficulties in their practical realization. To address the issue of proposing a material design that enables large band gaps using a simple configuration, in this study we propose an easy-to-manufacture design able to open large, low-frequency complete Lamb band gaps exploiting a suitable arrangement of masses and stif…
L’orientamento nel primo biennio di un istituto professionale
2017
L’intervento mirava a verificare se, integrando l’azione della scuola, che è un’agenzia educativa formale, con quella di agenzie formative non formali che operano nello stesso territorio dell’Istituto professionale coinvolto nella ricerca, si abbassava il tasso di dispersione scolastica nel primo biennio. Al termine delle nuove iniziative educative realizzate, dal confronto con i risultati degli anni precedenti, si è notato un aumento dei voti in matematica e in lingua italiana, una diminuzione delle assenze e dei ritardi all’ingresso e un aumento dei contatti tra genitori e insegnanti. The intervention was aimed to verify whether the integration of school action (being school a formal educ…
