A faceless threat or vulnerable individuals? : the representations of refugees in British newspapers during the European refugee crisis
2017
Pakolaisuus on hyvin ajankohtainen ja vakava ilmiö, joka tuo mukanaan moraalisia velvollisuuksia, taloudellisia haasteita sekä kysymyksiä tasa-arvon ja ihmisoikeuksien toteutumisesta. Vuonna 2015 alkaneen Euroopan pakolaiskriisin vuoksi pakolaiset ovat olleet jatkuvasti uutisotsikoissa. Maahanmuuton räjähdysmäinen kasvu on saanut aikaan voimakkaita reaktioita aiheuttaen sekä solidaarisuutta että ennakkoluulojen siivittämää vastustusta. Median rooli ilmiössä on valtava, sillä se ilmaisee, muokkaa ja vahvistaa ihmisten asenteita ja mielikuvia. Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoituksena on selvittää miten pakolaisia representoidaan brittiläisissä sanomalehdissä, pyrkien paljastamaan mahdollista negatiivi…

Time Deixis in Engineering Discourse
2021
Nowadays, it has become commonly accepted that the meaning of linguistic elements is interconnected with the context of their use. Deixis is one of the classical pragmatic phenomena that illustrates that context-dependence is inherent in language as meaning of deictic expressions cannot be constructed without the identification of the speech event where these expressions occurred. The present article discusses cases of time deixis in the context of engineering discourse. The goal of the research is to demonstrate how the deictic expression use in different genres of professional discourse impacts meaning construction. The study deals with the data obtained from scientific articles, encyclop…
Mater semper certa est ? Passé, présent, avenir d'un adage, Actes du colloque de Dijon des 24-25 novembre 2016, K. Fiorentino et A. Fiorentino (dir.)…
2018
International audience; La preuve de la filiation maternelle, résumée par l’un des adages les plus connus en droit de la famille, Mater semper certa est, a pendant longtemps semblé être une évidence voulue par la nature, donc ne posant que peu de problème juridique, à l’inverse de la paternité. Pourtant, l’évidence a-t-elle toujours été aussi flagrante ? Pourquoi ressentir le besoin de forger un adage ? Quelle fut sa valeur et a-t-il toujours parfaitement reflété la réalité ? Force est de constater que si la maternité est certaine, la preuve de celle-ci se heurte à plusieurs difficultés tant matérielles que processuelles. Il s’agit donc ici de s’interroger sur la place accordée en droit à l…

Prefaces in medical dictionaries: from moves to rhetorical analysis
2017
Medical dictionaries represent, among the other things, an important pedagogic genre (Swales 1995, Bhatia, 1997, Hyland 2000) within academic education, since they are the means through which professional writers talk about their disciplines and address to scholars. The preface sections are of the utmost importance since, among several functions, they (should) attract and orient the readers (Azar, 2012). This paper describes the macro structure of preface sections in fourteen English dictionaries related to the field of medicine and investigates on the rhetorical and discursive devices employed in these texts to establish the importance of the author's work. In addition, the paper questions…

Prefazione alla monografia "Effettività della tutela del lavoratore nelle risoluzioni alternative delle controversie tra inderogabilità e autonomia"
2022
L'A. nell'esaminare la tesi sostenuta dall'autore della monografia mette in rilievo la tesi centrale del volume secondo cui i concetti di inderogabilità e indisponibilità assumono particolare pregnanza nel diritto del lavoro in radicale contrapposizione al diritto comune dei contratti. L'A. ritiene altresì apprezzabili le ricche considerazioni dell’autore dedicate alla conciliazione sindacale.
Is Democracy Exportable?
2017
Among many aspects to the question of whether democracy is exportable, this contribution focuses on the role of the people, understood not as a unitary actor but as a heterogeneous set: the citizens. The people matter, in a different way, both in the countries to which democracy might be exported and in the democratic countries in which the question is about promoting democracy elsewhere. The mechanisms or characteristics involved in the discussion include yardstick competition, differences among citizens in the intensity of their preferences, differences among autocracies regarding intrusion into private life, citizens’ assessments of future regime change, and responsiveness of elected inc…
Interactively Learning the Preferences of a Decision Maker in Multi-objective Optimization Utilizing Belief-rules
2020
Many real life problems can be modelled as multiobjective optimization problems. Such problems often consist of multiple conflicting objectives to be optimized simultaneously. Multiple optimal solutions exist to these problems, and a single solution cannot be said to be the best without preferences given by a domain expert. Preferences can be used to find satisfying solutions: optimal solutions, which best match the expert’s preferences. To model the preferences of the expert, and aid him/her in finding satisfying solutions, a novel method is proposed. The method utilizes machine learning combined with belief-rule based systems to adaptively train a belief rule based system to learn a domai…
