Diversidades geográficas e construção de um conhecimento crítico para participar em rede. A experiência do Geoforo Iberoamericano. Balanço inicial
2011
The diversity of people, cultures and social situations in Latin America countries does not obstruct the critical and honest dialogue concerning the research carried out on the learning of world problems. Geography, as a science, can contribute to this challenge, but it needs, then, to leave the intellectual, corporate and academic obstacles that prevent its study by the pupils. In this work we communicate the initiatives developed by a group of teachers by means of the Geoforo, which takes advantage of the facilities of the cyberspace, from the Geocrítica portal of the University of Barcelona.
: " Si tu veux la paix, prépare la guerre " ou " si tu veux la paix, prépare la paix " ?
2012
International audience; A la fin du IVe siècle dans son Traité de l'art militaire (De re militari), le chrétien Végèce a écrit : " qui désire la paix, se prépare donc à la guerre ". Son ouvrage, utilisé comme manuel de moralisation du guerrier par l'Eglise catholique, est encore qualifié au début du XIXe siècle par des stratèges militaires de " Livre d'or " des règles de la guerre. Mais cet adage toujours présent dans l'esprit de nos contemporains a été dénoncé en 1841 par le saint-simonien Barthélemy Prosper Enfantin qui a écrit : " si tu veux la paix, prépare la paix ". Le mouvement pacifiste qui s'est développé depuis les conflits napoléoniens peine à reprendre son souffle à la fin de la…
Esperienze religiose e processi educativi. Il punto di vista della pedagogia fondamentale
2017
Maria Teresa Moscato ha coordinato una «ricerca esplorativa nazionale» sui vissuti, i linguaggi e l’educazione dell’esperienza religiosa; è consistita nella somministrazione sul territorio nazionale di un questionario, ideato dall’équipe di lavoro da lei costituita e recante il titolo Religiosità e formazione religiosa. Nella riflessione che svolgo propongo alcune glosse a margine della ricerca, gli appunti di lettura e le mie note; sono intese ad esplicitare, nella prospettiva dell’antropologia pedagogica e della pedagogia fondamentale, quanto, pur presente nell’indagine empirica e tale anzi da reggerne l’impianto, resta però in essa un implicito, quasi una riserva di senso. Tali notazione…
Stress sensitivity of stylolite morphology
2009
International audience; Stylolites are rough surfaces that form by localized stress-induced dissolution. Using a set of limestone rock samples collected at different depths from a vertical section in Cirque de Navacelles (France), we study the influence of the lithostatic stress on the stylolites morphology on the basis of a recent morphogenesis model. We measured the roughness of a series of bedding-parallel stylolites and show that their morphology exhibits a scaling invariance with two self-affine scaling regimes separated by a crossover-length (L) at the millimeter scale consistent with previous studies. The importance of the present contribution is to estimate the stylolite formation s…
When Social Media Influencers Go Political: An Exploratory Analysis on the Emergence of Political Topics Among Finnish Influencers
2022
Social media influencers are often understood as non-political actors who, due to the impact they exert on their followers’ purchase decisions and brand attitudes, play an important role in marketing and branding. In recent years, various influencers have addressed political issues during important political events such as elections. This political aspect of social media influencing has not received much scholarly interest thus far. In one of the first exploratory studies on the topic, we surveyed over one hundred Finnish influencers and investigated the degree to which they engaged with political topics. Our results show that political topics are commonly brought up among Finnish influence…
Some fixed point theorems for occasionally weakly compatible mappings in probabilistic semi-metric spaces
2009
We prove some common fixed point theorems in probabilistic semi-metric spaces for occasionally weakly compatible mappings satisfying a generalized contractive condition. We give also results of common fixed point for mappings satisfying a condition of integral type.
Automated Detection of Microaneurysms Using Scale-Adapted Blob Analysis and Semi-Supervised Learning
2014
International audience; Despite several attempts, automated detection of microaneurysm (MA) from digital fundus images still remains to be an open issue. This is due to the subtle nature of MAs against the surrounding tissues. In this paper, the microaneurysm detection problem is modeled as finding interest regions or blobs from an image and an automatic local-scale selection technique is presented. Several scale-adapted region descriptors are then introduced to characterize these blob regions. A semi-supervised based learning approach, which requires few manually annotated learning examples, is also proposed to train a classifier to detect true MAs. The developed system is built using only…
Il Grande Cretto di Gibellina
2022
The essay aims to make explicit the methodological criteria underlying the semiotic analysis of a space, taking as an example the case of the Grande Cretto that Alberto Burri realised in Gibellina in the second half of the 1980s. An impressive Land Art work that presents at first sight a series of clear-cut oppositions, but which on closer inspection calls them into question, rather emphasising gradations and nuances. The essay considers the discourses of space and those on space, the levels of the generative path, the plastic and figurative languages, showing how the analysis is the outcome of a continuous adjustment between the researcher and the text: the former engaged in constructing a…
Cat Cafés and Dog Restaurants
2018
Starting from the assumption that space is a language and that food is also a language, what we will try to show in this paper is how these two languages, together, carry specific concepts of animality. For this reason, we will focus on two different places of food consumption that place animals at the centre of their proposal and that in recent years have spread in urban environments: cat cafes, where cats are conceived as subjects to pet, endowed with a predominantly emotional value, and dog restaurants, where dogs are in fact the real restaurant clients.
Mitologie dello street food (a partire da alcune pietanze siciliane).
2021
The article investigates the gastronomic universe of street food through two steps. The first is theoretical and highlights what are the founding semantic categories of street food with respect to other culinary worlds (home cooking, fast food, etc.) and, through this specifically relational point of view, also explains the transformations and inversions between systems of values that are in principle opposite. The idea is to conceive of street food not as some entity given from the outset but, on the contrary, as an effect od meaning of the social, media, gastronomic discourses that are made of it. The second passage is more empirical and is dedicated to Palermo's street food: chosen as a …
