Visioni teoriche ed applicazioni territoriali della scienza della sostenibilità: design e formazione in un progetto pilota per le aree protette della…

2011

Attualmente sia nella letteratura scientifica sulla sostenibilità che nell'orizzonte delle politiche d'azione territoriale si registra un ricco panorama di visioni teoriche e di strategie d'azione volte allo sostenibilità. La sostanziale distinzione in due macro filoni di pensiero e di azione, weak/strong sustainibility (Angelini, Pizzuto, 2007), comporta strategie d'azione differenti che scaturiscano da presupposti teorici distinti. L'azione progettuale su formazione, design e sostenibilità potrebbe aprire spiragli e soluzioni creative ed innovative per la crisi. La progettazione di percorsi di formazione orientati alla costituzione di microimprese sostenibili operanti nel campo della valo…

Positions constructed for a female therapist in male batterers' treatment groups

2010

The aim of this study was to examine how male batterers regard to a female therapist in their group treatment. Of interest were the socially constructed positions for a female therapist. This study intends to examine what kind of positions the batterers construct for a female therapist in their speech and how the female therapist reacts to invitations to take up these positions. Attention was paid also to the male therapist’s positions in these situations. The topic was approached from a social constructionist and discourse analytic point of view and Grounded Theory was used as the method of analysing the data. The data consisted of five therapy groups for male batterers, each of which gath…

Terapia Celular en Enfermedades Desmielinizantes

2021

Antecedentes y estado actual del tema: La Esclerosis Múltiple es una enfermedad autoinmune y neurodegenerativa crónica de base inflamatoria que afecta a la sustancia gris y blanca del sistema nervioso central. Se caracteriza por la presencia de lesiones focales desmielinizantes y afectación difusa del tejido nervioso aparentemente normal, siendo la discapacidad consecuencia de la neurodegeneración progresiva, a la que se superpone la discapacidad que pueda aparecer como consecuencia de un brote. Los llamados tratamientos modificadores de la Esclerosis Múltiple limitan los brotes de inflamación que acontecen en la forma remitente-recurrente pero apenas modifican la progresión de la discapaci…

Direccionamiento de células madre mesenquimales adultas para el tratamiento del infarto cerebral mediante la aplicación de campos magnéticos

2017

La terapia con células madre mesenquimales (MSCs) resulta una opción prometedora para el tratamiento después del infarto cerebral, debido a las ventajas que presentan éstas frente a otros tipos de células madre: (i) pueden obtenerse en la práctica clínica mediante técnicas mínimamente invasivas, (ii) su cultivo primario y expansión in vitro resultan muy eficientes, (iii) poseen tropismo por las zonas lesionadas (homing) y (iv) tienen capacidad inmunomoduladora y antiinflamatoria en el organismo receptor. Todo ello, ha hecho que se conviertan en unas perfectas candidatas como agente terapéutico después del ictus, habiendo concluido varios ensayos clínicos con una mejor recuperación funcional…

"Evil demystified with civility" : journalistien eettiset ongelmat ja ratkaisut Anders Breivikin oikeudenkäynnissä

2016

Heinäkuussa 2011 Norjaa kohtasi pohjoismaiden historian pahin terrori-isku, kun Anders Behring Breivik tappoi 77 ihmistä. Seuraavana vuonna Oslon käräjäoikeudessa käytiin oikeudenkäynti, jossa Breivikiä syytettiin terroriteoista ja harkituista murhista. Oikeudenkäynnistä muodostui valtava mediatapahtuma, johon osallistuivat sadat mediaorganisaatiot ja toimittajat. Monien mukaan tämä tarjosi Breivikille juuri sen, mitä tämä oli halunnutkin: julkisen foorumin, jossa hän voisi jakaa äärioikeistolaista propagandaansa. Tässä tutkielmassa tarkastellaan sitä, millaisia eettisiä ongelmia Anders Breivikin oikeudenkäynti tuotti journalisteille, ja miten journalistit selviytyivät näistä ongelmista. Tu…

Health Promotion in Sport Coaching: Coaches and Young Male Athletes’ Evaluations on the Health Promotion Activity of Coaches

2015

Sport coaches have paradoxical attitudes towards addressing health promotion as a part of their coaching practice: health is recognized as an important factor, but not greatly invested in. Overall, the extent to which youth sport coaches take health promotion into account has been unclear. Therefore, it is the intention of this study to clarify this situation. The results show that coaches evaluate their own activity on health promotion as being relatively active, whereas young male athletes' evaluations reveal a wide gap in how they perceived the coaches' activity. Young male athletes perceived their coaches as being substantially more passive in comparison to coaches' self-evaluations. T…

The sculpture of tick-borne diseases media coverage in the United States and China

2017

Media’s ability to enhance the salience of certain topics for the public and affect governmental policy-setting processes is widely recognized.  This is particularly evident in health communication, where newspapers are one of the most important sources of health information. This study compares media depictions of tick-borne disease in the United States and China, attempting to enhance newspaper influence in health information delivery in both countries. The United States and China are experiencing an increase in tick-borne diseases and have vastly different media landscapes.  To investigate US and Chinese newspaper coverage of tick-borne diseases, a content analysis was conducted of four …

GLOBAL ISSUES, WESTERN FOCI: BANAL OCCIDENTALISM IN A FINNISH NEWSPAPER

2016

‘The West’ is an imagined community par excellence with a plethora of connotations that often contradict each other. Although it is often not at all certain exactly what the West or things Western refer to, the concepts are used as if there was some distinct cultural reality corresponding to them. Like any other ethnic group, tribe, nation state, or even village, the West is both fantasy and real, a social construction and, to some extent, an observable social formation. The Western world exists because people believe in its unity and share the connotations but also for a more mundane—or banal— reason: because these are constantly expressed in text and speech. This article examines the news…

E-Sports y brecha de género: la percepción de las profesionales españolas

2019

The present paper aims to identify the causes of under-representation of women in E-sports. According to a genre perspective, interest in videogames at the amateur level is quite similar. However, in its professional level, female participation becomes very limited. The fact that physical effort is irrelevant (a requirement for ?traditional sports?) could be considered a variable that would negatively affect greater to equality in the conditions of access and participation of women in electronic sports. Against any predictions, the data on the presence of women are elocuent: few women, with much lower wages than men to remunerate same skills, and a general complaint by the female profession…
