Effects of plant species in a horizontal subsurface flow constructedwetland – phytoremediation of treated urban wastewater withCyperus alternifolius …
2013
Abstract Plant species carry out a series of important biological, chemical and physical processes within a constructed wetland wastewater treatment system and make a significant contribution to wastewater purification. This paper compares two emergent macrophytes – Cyperus alternifolius L. and Typha latifolia L. – planted separately in a pilot horizontal subsurface flow system for the phytoremediation of treated urban wastewater in the West of Sicily (Italy). The total surface area of the three units within the pilot system was 99 m 2 . Six subunits were planted with two species and three subunits were left unplanted as the control. The main aim of the study was to demonstrate that, under …
Interactions of Societal Actors and Local Government in Institutionalized Governance Arrangements: The Book’s Scope and Content
2020
The chapter sets the stage for a comparative analysis of institutionalized governance networks grouping local governments and individual and collective or corporate societal actors unfolding at the municipal, sub-municipal and inter-municipal level. It details the premises for analyzing these networks with an emphasis on organized interests and interest intermediation and their relationship with the notion of democracy. It then reviews existing literature on the relationship between local governments and societal actors at two different levels. With reference to the municipal (micro) level, it looks at interest theory, the community power debate and the local governance approach. With refer…
Domestic Violence in Separated Couples in Italian Context: Communalities and Singularities of Women and Men Experiences
2018
Relationship breakdown and separation represent a critical aspect in domestic violence. Few studies have investigated domestic violence in separated couples. Moreover, there is a need for a more in depth analysis of gender differences that could enhance the comprehension of the phenomenon. The primary aim of this research was to analyze, through a qualitative approach, which kinds of domestic violence are characteristic or major in separated couples in the Italian context, where this phenomenon has not yet been sufficiently investigated. Participants are 60 separated couples (mean age: M = 48; F = 44) who attended a Family Mediation Center. A descriptive study was conducted using grounded t…
El lugar del no saber en la enseñanza de las artes visuales
2017
Resumen: Este escrito reflexiona la importancia del no saber como un saber ser y hacer necesario en la ensenanza.Una forma de estar en el aula y de posicionarse como docentes que da cabida a la practica del error, la incertidumbre, la fragilidad y vulnerabilidad ante las situaciones pedagogicas que enriquecen la ensenanza, porque permiten que ocurra el aprendizaje desde el lugar de la sorpresa, la investigacion y la mediacion, donde los y las otras toman un lugar fundamental. A traves de diversos relatos de las participantes de este estudio, se reflexionan cuatro modos de entender el no saber en la ensenanza de las artes visuales, ya que muestran una forma de ensenar que se vincula con la …

2023
Este artículo profundiza en el papel jugado por las mujeres como mediadoras culturales en el siglo XVIII. Su punto de partida es la figura poco conocida de María, condesa de Fernán Núñez, embajadora de España en Portugal (1777-1787) y Francia (1787-1791), quien llevó una vida transnacional marcada por viajes, cortes internacionales y embajadas, todos espacios de sociabilidad tradicionalmente vinculados al estudio de la mediación cultural, ámbito que en los últimos años ha comenzado a ser estudiado desde la perspectiva de género. La experiencia de la condesa arroja luz sobre las contribuciones de las esposas de los embajadores y diplomáticos a la vida política y cultural europea y sobre las …
Conflict management in the international context : analyzing the role of the United Nations in the Western Sahara conflict

The United Nations is the most productive international organization in resolving international world conflicts. The UN uses different techniques and approaches to resolve international conflicts, including mediation. This study analyzes the process of mediation and international conflict management from the point of view of UN efforts in the Western Sahara conflict, which has been ongoing since 1975. This study specifically focuses on the UN’s role in resolving intercultural conflict in Western Sahara and the concrete steps it has taken, such as implementation of the cease-fire, the Settlement Plan and establishing the Mission for an independence referendum in Western Sahara (MINURSO). It …
What drives diners' eco-friendly behaviour? The moderating role of planning routine
2021
Research focusing on diners' intentions towards leftovers, which are considered one of the main sources of consumer food waste in restaurants, is still at a nascent stage and requires further investigation. The present study attempts to address this gap by investigating the antecedents of diners' intentions to take away leftovers and thereby mitigate food waste in an out-of-home setting. Towards this end, we examined the role of personal and social norms as antecedents of the facilitators, inhibitors, and intentions of taking away leftovers. Using the theoretical lens of the Stimulus-Organism-Response (SOR) paradigm, we tested the proposed hypotheses by analysing data collected from 281 din…
Relationships Between Personal Values and Leadership Behaviors in Basketball Coaches.
2018
Background: Based on the refined theory of basic individual values and transformational leadership theory, this study focuses on the associations between coaches' value priorities and their transformational leadership behaviors, exploring the potential mediation versus moderation effect of two alternative variables in this relationship: perceived club pressure or an autonomy supportive environment. Methods: Participants were 266 basketball coaches (85.7% men) from 17 to 66 years old (M = 32.82, SD = 9.2) from 119 different Spanish clubs. On average, they had worked for their current sport clubs for 5.02 years, and they had a mean of 11.10 years of experience. The coaches were all Spanish sp…
