‘Something’s Not Right in Silverhöjd’: Nordic Supernatural and Environmental and Species Justice in Jordskott
2022
In the Swedish/Finnish/British/Norwegian television series Jordskott (2015–17) child victims’ mysterious disappearances signal that ‘something’s not right’ in Silverhöjd, a Swedish town. Three detectives uncover a conflict between the locals who depend on a local industry and preternatural human-like but non-human forest creatures familiar from Nordic tradition and fairylore. Both humans and semi/non-humans are ambivalent, but what sets the latter apart is their implication in caring for nature, protecting it, and punishing those who harm it. We analyse this series’ instantiation of a folkloristic popular green criminology, based in the idea that popular discourses’ representations of crime…
Televisión, educación, y construcción de identidad de los telespectadores
2005
En su sentido más amplio y comprensivo, se puede definir la educación como el proceso de «formación integral de la persona», como la construcción de su identidad individual y social. Así, junto a la familia y la escuela, se encuentran a los medios de comunicación como instituciones o agentes de socialización/individuación, es decir, como instancias educativas en los diferentes planos formales, no formales e informales. De entre los medios de comunicación, en la actualidad la televisión destaca por su omnipresencia casi total, tanto en el tiempo (innumerables horas de ocio televisivo) como en el espacio (televisores por todas partes), y, consecuentemente, por su gran «influencia» en los múlt…
Figuras de justicia. El testimonio en los documentales sobre los juicios por los crímenes de la última dictadura militar argentina
2016
En Argentina, desde el 2006 hasta la fecha, han tenido lugar más de cien juicios por los crímenes cometidos durante la última dictadura militar argentina. El presente trabajo, de carácter exploratorio, tiene como objetivo analizar algunas de las producciones documentales sobre los mencionados juicios. Para llevar adelante nuestra tarea, tomaremos la noción de “figura de justicia” pensada por la criminóloga Nicole Rafter en su estudio sobre el cine de juicios, como también las ideas de Annette Wieviorka en torno a la era del testigo. Con ello, indagaremos el lugar del testigo y del testimonio para pensar qué tipo de narrativa de memoria promueven los documentales. In Argentina, since 2006 to…
“Not Only for a Celebration of Competitive Overwatch but Also for National Pride”: Sportificating the Overwatch World Cup 2016
2020
While the most popular forms of organized competitive digital gaming, also known as eSports, have begun finding their place within and in relation to both mainstream entertainment culture and the field of traditional sports, their history is one of struggling to be accepted as “true sports.” Partly because of this history, great effort has been put into the sportification of eSports by presenting competitions in familiar ways adapted from traditional sports. In this article, we examine the process of sportification of eSports in the context of tournament broadcasts. We analyze the Overwatch World Cup 2016 tournament, comparing its final broadcast to the 2014 FIFA World Cup’s final broadcast…
1914-1918. L'Album della Guerra: regime telescopico e montaggio fotografico della Storia
2014
Negli archivi europei un cercatore di immagini può davvero diventare il pescatore del mare di cui Hannah Arendt parla a proposito di Walter Benjamin collezionista, cioè di Benjamin storico. In breve, di Benjamin filosofo della storia. In particolare, si tratta di sapersi immergere, saper andare al fondo di un patrimonio fotografico enorme che mostra fin dal primo sguardo – e di sguardo si tratterà in modo esteso – una straordinaria accumulazione di immagini di guerra. La relazione tra fotografia e guerra, infatti, è stata sottolineata da molti pensatori e filosofi – e dallo stesso Benjamin –, ma anche da artisti e sperimentatori di tecniche fotografiche del XX secolo, e in particolare, da u…
The Diapause Lipidomes of Three Closely Related Beetle Species Reveal Mechanisms for Tolerating Energetic and Cold Stress in High-Latitude Seasonal E…
2020
During winter insects face energetic stress driven by lack of food, and thermal stress due to sub-optimal and even lethal temperatures. To survive, most insects living in seasonal environments such as high latitudes, enter diapause, a deep resting stage characterized by a cessation of development, metabolic suppression and increased stress tolerance. The current study explores physiological adaptations related to diapause in three beetle species at high latitudes in Europe. From an ecological perspective, the comparison is interesting since one species (Leptinotarsa decemlineata) is an invasive pest that has recently expanded its range into northern Europe, where a retardation in range expa…

Effects of environment and genotype on dispersal differ across departure, transfer and settlement in a butterfly metapopulation
2022
Active dispersal is driven by extrinsic and intrinsic factors at the three stages of departure, transfer and settlement. Most empirical studies capture only one stage of this complex process, and knowledge of how much can be generalized from one stage to another remains unknown. Here we use genetic assignment tests to reconstruct dispersal across 5 years and 232 habitat patches of a Glanville fritillary butterfly ( Melitaea cinxia ) metapopulation. We link individual dispersal events to weather, landscape structure, size and quality of habitat patches, and individual genotype to identify the factors that influence the three stages of dispersal and post-settlement survival. We found that ne…
