Intervenir à titre privé dans la diplomatie de sa cité : l'exemple de la paix de Nicias chez Thucydide
2013
Act on private basis in diplomacy of one’s own city. The example of Nicias’ peace in Thucydides. During the diplomatic exchanges related at the beginning of the fifth book, Thucydides shows two explicit private interventions using words connected with idia. First, two ephores, Cleoboulos and Xenares, make private propositions. Then, an Athenian, Alcibiades sends a private messenger. Whereas these two actions are unique in the fifth book, because Thucydides’ vocabulary is specific, some other citizens express opinions different from the majority decisions. Some of them act against the policy of their City. Self-interest may incite some citizens to participate in civic action, and the private…
Time cycles of homicide in the early modern Nordic area
2020
An extensive body of criminological research has shown that criminaland violent behaviour manifests time patterns in terms of daily,weekly and annual cycles. This is consistent with criminologicalroutine activities theory. Can we generalize these patterns to historicalperiods? In this article, we draw on a recently created uniquedataset, covering the years 1608–1699 in three Nordic regions, toexplore time cycles of offending in the early modern period.Examining daily, weekly and annual cycles, we find that lethalviolence manifested strong time patterns in the early modernperiod. The role of public holidays was central especially in theperiod lasting from Christmas to Midsummer. Probing the …
O conceito de imagem-presença na arte da idade média
2011
Este artigo propõe situar as principais correntes de leitura da imagem na arte medieval e sublinha a aparição de uma matriz original de pensamento, o pensamento pela arte, entre 1950 e 2000. No centro dessa nova épistémé, afirmou-se o conceito de imagem-presença, discutido a partir de três exemplos de entre o ano mil e c., 1450 e de um diálogo interdisciplinar com a antropologia social e a filosofia das ciências. This article aims to contextualize the main currents in the interpretation of medieval images, underlining to appearance of an original matrix of thought, thinking through art, between 1950 and 2000. At the heart of the new épistémè, the concept of image-presence is put forward and…
An Efficient Algorithm for Helly Property Recognition in a Linear Hypergraph
2001
International audience; In this article we characterize bipartite graphs whose associated neighborhood hypergraphs have the Helly property. We examine incidence graphs both hypergraphs and linear hypergraphs and we give a polynomial algorithm to recognize if a linear hypergraph has the Helly property.

Chaînage de bases de données anonymisées pour les études épidémiologiques multicentriques nationales et internationales : proposition d'un algorithme…
2009
Background: Compiling individual records coming from different sources is very important for multicenter epidemiological studies; however, European directives and other national legislation concerning nominal data processing must be respected. These legal aspects can be satisfied by implementing mechanisms that allow anonymization of patient data (such as hashing techniques). Moreover, for security reasons, official recommendations suggest using different cryptographic keys in combination with a cryptographic hash function for each study. Unfortunately, this type of anonymization procedure is in contradiction with common requirements in public health and biomedical research because it becom…
Socio-economic inequalities and organized crime: An empirical analysis
2020
In this chapter we contribute to the recent literature (e.g., Istat, 2010, Acciari et al., 2016, Guell et al., 2017) that provides evidence that inequality is high and social mobility is low in the Italian regions and prov-inces where organized crime is widespread such as those of Southern Italy. We complement this line of work in two respects. First, using a novel pan-el dataset at the regional level for the period 1985-2014 we investigate the relationship between inequality and organized crime at the regional level, exploiting both time and cross-sectional variation. Second, we assess the role of social mobility in organized crime. Our main finding is that higher inequality leads to highe…
A formal model based on Game Theory for the analysis of cooperation in distributed service discovery
2016
New systems can be designed, developed, and managed as societies of agents that interact with each other by offering and providing services. These systems can be viewed as complex networks where nodes are bounded rational agents. In order to deal with complex goals, they require cooperation of the other agents to be able to locate the required services. The aim of this paper is formally and empirically analyze under which circumstances cooperation emerges in decentralized search of services. We propose a repeated game model that formalizes the interactions among agents in a search process where agents are free to choose between cooperate or not in the process. Agents make decisions based on…
Europe’s Peat Fire: Intangible Heritage and the Crusades for Identity
2019
Dissonances of ethnic nationalism have in Western cultural policy long been concealed by the universalist discourses of the international treaties on material heritage protection, as framed by the expansive heritage conservation apparatuses of the European nation states. Originally inspired by the 19th century romantic spirit of conservation, they became in the 20th century part of the modern, state-apparatus. Yet parallel with the European enlargements and new kinds of memory debates on the Holocaust and postcolonialism, these authorized heritage regimes have received more and more competition from a transnational counter-discourse on intangible cultural heritage. Like the earlier transfor…
Współczesne systemy bezpieczeństwa w filozoficznej wizji Emmanuela Kanta
2015
The authors of this article to introduce the issue of philosophical issues by Immanuel Kant and his interpretations. The article contains only a limited and necessary extent to which the authors present the main ideas of Kant related to human existence peaceful in the world, based on the work "To the eternal peace. Outline philosophical ". Kant realized that their works do not make changes in his lifetime, and many subsequent generations, but once implanted ideas must find a peaceful base for future communities, which will be able to bear fruit, which Immanuel Kant expected. Thus, the military security in the vision Kant is a world without violence, without the pressure of military elements…
