The Trap of Proximity Violence. Research and Insights into Male Dominance and Female Resistance
2020
This book aims at shifting the emphasis from a general vision of gender-based violence to a more opaque, yet equally destructive one, that related to "proximity violence". The investigative tension of this book aims at bringing to light the crevasses where violence lurks ready to return in disguise as well as the lairs where it hides. Like a whirlwind, violence appears in all its destructive might and disappears. Precisely because violence is of a proxemic kind it is hard to position with respect to those who wish to objectify it. Its screens are many and the causes that feed it are endowed with a good dose of relational and lexical ambiguity. Because it is profoundly unjust, unfair, wrong,…
Prężność u młodzieży z placówek resocjalizacyjnych i szkół ponadpodstawowych – analiza porównawcza
2020
Prężność, rozumiana jako właściwość jednostki, która decyduje o umiejętności skutecznego radzenia sobie w sytuacjach trudnych, jest zasobem osobistym sprzyjającym procesowi pozytywnej adaptacji do warunków środowiskowych. Celem przeprowadzonych badań było rozpoznanie prężności nieletnich umieszczonych w placówkach resocjalizacyjnych w porównaniu z prężnością młodzieży nieskonfliktowanej z prawem. W badaniach zastosowano Skalę Pomiaru Prężności autorstwa Niny Ogińskiej-Bulik i Zygfryda Juczyńskiego. Uzyskane wyniki badań potwierdzają, że nieletni charakteryzują się niższym nasileniem prężności niż młodzież ze szkół ponadpodstawowych, zwłaszcza w zakresie dwóch czynników: poczucia humoru i ot…

Conversions and Resilient Materials
2018
Nowadays different and various forms of resilience draw our attention but, there is no doubt that, among all the inflated meanings of this term, we are greatly attracted by the one concerning the ability of the material itself to regenerate in a different present when it is widely employed both in sophisticated technologies and also in very simple methodologies to support Man in his research, his knowledge and his production in a world still to be planned far from the logic of the brutal beton. Today the anthropic world of what has already been built must be reconsidered in terms of redesign, systemic rewording, methods and results employed in the making (even in the case of new artifacts).…
Socio-economic implications of the Coronavirus pandemic in Latvia

The spread of COVID-19 requires immediate policy response and future-oriented actions to reduce devastating economic and social impact of crisis and preserve sustainable growth. The aim of this paper is to assess the current economic and social consequenses of the ongoing crisis in Latvia, the government response, public perceptions and future scenarios. Research is based on the macroeconomic assessment and surveybased analysis of people’s attitude towards the government's emergency programs. The comparison of statistically justified findings with the public perception helps formulate conclusions on the future sustainability scenarios and policies.
Salutogenic design and regeneration for building heritage
2022
The design approach used is the SPCI “Salutogenic Park City Immersive” which focuses on the renaturation of urban living environments. A strategic role is played by the use of greening and landscaping design systems that are able to absorb a significant share of the country’s climate-changing gas emissions, as already partly highlighted by the European Green Deal. In particular, the key factors and methodologies of intervention are based on the interaction between Green City Adaptive and Resilient Design, in terms of physical redevelopment, environmental remediation and energy improvement, integrated with the enhancement of existing heritage. With the SPCI we intend to experiment with inter…
SUSTAINABILITY AND ENVIRONMENTAL TRANSITION: PRINCIPLES AND DESIGN GUIDELINES
2021
In these times of constant precariousness and insecurity, debates on the need for environmental sustainability are on the increase. There is a need to regenerate urban areas both by transforming the existing heritage while respecting historical memory, and by proposing "renewed" neighbourhoods with smartness, according to the use of renewable energy sources, eco-building, intelligent mobility, with a view to ecological transition. Immediate responses are needed to resource depletion on the one hand and the need to protect the quality of natural and environmental capital on the other. To achieve these goals, cities are called upon to play the role of drivers of sustainable development. By en…
GREEN REVOLUTION AND BUILT HERITAGE: CONCEPTS AND PERSPECTIVES OF ENVIRONMENTAL REGENERATION
2021
Urban and environmental regeneration is now a priority on a planetary level, and the climate neutrality objectives set by Brussels inevitably require a new green and sustainable design of cities and a total revision of human behaviour in relation to nature. Environmental regeneration requires an inclusive practice of architecture capable of metabolising the adaptations and contradictions of the built environment. With this in mind, and with no claim to being exhaustive, we will examine some of the "enabling" conditions and "indispensable" reasons for leading a process of environmental regeneration of the built heritage, analysing the critical points relating to public responsibilities, the …
