Economic and Life Cycle Analysis of Passive and Active Monitoring of Ozone for Forest Protection
2021
At forest sites, phytotoxic tropospheric ozone (O3) can be monitored with continuously operating, active monitors (AM) or passive, cumulative samplers (PM). For the first time, we present evidence that the sustainability of active monitoring is better than that of passive sensors, as the environmental, economic, and social costs are usually lower in the former than in the latter. By using data collected in the field, environmental, social, and economic costs were analyzed. The study considered monitoring sites at three distances from a control station in Italy (30, 400, and 750 km), two forest types (deciduous and Mediterranean evergreen), and three time windows (5, 10, and 20 years of moni…
Emergency Response Model as a part of the Smart Society
2021
Centralized hybrid emergency model with predictive emergency response functions is necessary when the purpose is to protect the critical infrastructure (CI). A shared common operational picture among Public Protection and Disaster Relief (PPDR) authorities means that a real-time communication link from the local level to the state-level exists. If a cyberattack would interrupt electricity transmission, telecommunication networks will discontinue operating. Cyberattack becomes physical in the urban and maritime area if an intrusion has not been detected. Hybrid threats require hybrid responses. The purpose of this qualitative research was to find out technological-related fundamental risks …
Introduzione
2018
This papers studies different issues related to minorities rights. After trying to define what should be intended as minorities in contemporary West societies and exploring if it is possible to make a difference between old and new minorities, the research focuses on the main issues that are at stake. In particular, the paper aims at discovering which are the rights involved and how such rights can be categorised, as human, cultural, individual or community rights. The research will show how new minorities are in need of having their own identities recognised and protected by our West societies. This requires the achievement of a real process of integration to be carried out through two com…
Immigrati e diritti sociali
2016
Il saggio analizza in chiave critica i problemi più attuali della protezione socia¬le degli immigrati. Dopo avere ricostruito il quadro normativo attualmente vigente, l’A. esamina le pronunce giurisprudenziali più significative in materia di parità di trattamento e divieto di discriminazione, valutandone l’impatto con riferimento ai diversi status di immigrato. L’ultima parte è dedicata alla questione della condizionalità delle prestazioni di assistenza sociale a causa dei vincoli di bilancio imposti agli Stati dalla nuova governance europea. The paper proposes a critical view of the most actual problems concerning social protection of migrant people. On the one hand, it presents the in for…
W sprawie potrzeby uregulowania umowy franczyzy w Polsce
2021
Praca prezentuje w pierwszej kolejności zagadnienia związane z pojęciem umowy franczyzy jako empirycznym typem umowy, jak i teoretyczne zagadnienie problematyki umów nienazwanych. W kontekście treści stosunku prawnego franczyzy zwrócono uwagę na dwie kwestie. Po pierwsze, pomimo braku regulacji umowy franczyzy w polskim prawie cywilnym wpływ na treść stosunku prawnego franczyzy mają przepisy prawa publicznego z zakresu ochrony konkurencji (prawa antymonopolowego). Wpływ ten należy ocenić jako istotny. Ewentualne uregulowanie w prawie cywilnym umowy franczyzy nie będzie oznaczało dopuszczalności pominięcia przy nadawaniu jej konkretnej treści regulacji prawa ochrony konkurencji. Po drugie, t…
The Universal Declaration of Human Rights
2023
This publication has been funded through the Unesco Chair 2023 of the University of Valencia. The document addresses the importance of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights as a global framework for the protection of human rights. It mentions the five categories of rights: civil, political, economic, social, and cultural. The current challenges in human rights protection, such as violence, discrimination, and online privacy, are also highlighted.
Passive Control of Linear Structures Equipped with non-Linear Viscous Dampers and Amplification Mechanism
2008
Fluid damper devices in civil structures such as buildings or bridges are commonly used as energy absorbers for seismic protection. The problem in the response analysis of structures with filled dampers mainly consists in the fact that, due to the strongly nonlinear behavior of such equipments, the response spectrum technique fails. Moreover, in order to enhance the damping effect various toggle brace configurations have been recently proposed. In this paper by using the concept of power spectral density function compatible with the elastic response spectrum and the stochastic linearization technique, the equivalent damping ratio is obtained. It is shown that once the system is linearized r…
La tutela del lavoratore straniero irregolare dopo il decreto n. 130/2020
2022
Lo scritto si propone di indagare i profili di vulnerabilità legati alla posizione di clandestinità dei migranti irregolari ed il duplice ruolo dell’ordinamento giuridico, quale causa della loro stessa vulnerabilità e strumento di tutela. A tal fine, si propone un’analisi degli ultimi interventi in tema di immigrazione, a cui segue un dettagliato esame della più recente giurisprudenza in materia di protezione speciale. L’obiettivo è quello di definire l’ambito di applicazione della “nuova” protezione speciale come ultimo approdo legislativo in grado di fornire un meccanismo residuale di protezione delle vulnerabilità dei lavoratori migranti, laddove il permesso di soggiorno per motivi di la…
Anàlisi sobre la figura/institució del Comissionat del menor: Pare d'Òrfens contemplada a la Llei 12/2008 de Protecció a la infància i l'adolescència…
2012
The concept / institution of the Commissioner for Children ' 'Pare d'Òrfens' appears for the first time in Valencia with Law 12/2008 on Protection of Children and Adolescents. The purpose of this article is to inform readers of the existence of this concept / institution, analysing the regulatory development that has taken place and comparing its performance with other similar concepts/institutions existing in other Spanish regions, in order to critically assess the work done in recent years. To close the paper, we give a number of conclusions drawn after completing the research on this concept / institution, including several general recommendations in the form of constructive criticism.
Una más de la familia. Au pairs atrapadas entre el capital humano y la economía moral
2018
In contemporary societies we are witnessing an expansion of the messages of human capital. These messages have as their central dimension idea of the self-entrepreneur, which implies a deepening in the logic of activation, while blurring the wage relations. In this scenario, young people with university degrees are becoming a favourite target in the offensive of human capital. The penetration of these human capital messages can be seen in the discourses of young university students who have been forced to leave the country during the crisis. In the present text we approach the discourses of young women who came out as au pairs. The characteristics of this figure place it in a space halfway …
