LA DISTINZIONE TRA DIRITTO PRIVATO E DIRITTO PUBBLICO NEL COMMON LAW INGLESE
2016
“Relative priority rule” e diritti dei soci nel concordato preventivo in continuità
2022
La codificazione di nuove regole di possibile distribuzione del valore ritraibile dall’impresa in crisi oggetto di ristrutturazione fra i creditori – e non solo fra questi, venendo ora in gioco anche una nuova disciplina delle possibili attribuzioni ai soci – è una delle più rilevanti innovazioni introdotte con l’entrata in vigore del Codice della crisi di impresa e di insolvenza, come novellato dal d.gs. 17 giugno 2022, n. 83, in attuazione della Direttiva (UE) 2019/1023. Il lavoro ripercorre la genesi e lo sviluppo di tali regole nell’orizzonte statunitense e poi in quello europeo, per poi tornare alla recente disciplina italiana in esame, con particolare attenzione al trattamento dei soc…
Analysis of the Effects of Reservoir Operating Scenarios on Downstream Flood Damage Risk Using an Integrated Monte Carlo Modelling Approach
2023
The aim of this study is to analyse the effects of reservoir operating scenarios, for flood damage evaluation downstream of a dam, using a Monte Carlo bivariate modelling chain. The proposed methodology involves a stochastic procedure to calculate flood hydrographs and the evaluation of the consequent flood inundation area by applying a 2D hydraulic model. These results are used to estimate the inundation risk and, as consequence, the relative damage evaluation under different water level conditions in an upstream reservoir. The modelling chain can be summarized as follows: single synthetic stochastic rainfall event generation by using a Monte Carlo procedure through a bivariate copulas ana…
Estudio del potencial patógeno de cepas de Saccharomyces cerevisiae aisladas de suplementos dietéticos y probióticos
2012
La levadura Saccharomyces cerevisiae es la especie más utilizada desde un punto de vista biotecnológico. Además, se emplea como suplemento dietético y como agente probiótico bajo el nombre de S. cerevisiae var. boulardii. Hasta ahora, su consumo se había considerado beneficioso por sus propiedades biofuncionales y su valor nutritivo intrínseco, y por otra parte, seguro, dado el carácter “GRAS” (de Generally Recognized As Safe) que se atribuye a esta especie de levadura; sin embargo, actualmente se considera a S. cerevisiae dentro del grupo de patógenos oportunistas emergentes de baja virulencia, capaz de causar infecciones principalmente en hospedadores inmunodeprimidos. Con el fin de conoc…
Occasioni mancate: il bilanciamento tra diritto alla vita familiare e best interest of the child, e la rappresentanza del minore nella sentenza Stran…
2020
The recent judgment of the Grand Chamber of the European Court of Human Rights in Strand Lobben and others v. Norway raises, among others, two interesting reflections. First, it expressly requires a balance between the best interest of the child and other rights, such as the parents’ interest to the maintenance of family relationships. However, the conclusion reached by the Court – finding a violation of art. 8 of the Convention only in respect of its procedural aspect – does not match with the premises. Second, the (missed opportunity for) balancing is carried out without guaranteeing the proper representation of the minor in the judgment. This procedural gap in the Court’s regulations sho…
Egemonia vs. sovranità: oltre lo stato di diritto per un dis-ordine globale? Spunti su alcune forme giuridiche (cosmopolite)
2022
Martha Nussbaum, la pensatrice di Chicago, ha recentemente affermato che le nazioni e le identit�� nazionali sono i migliori ��� e gli unici - strumenti per alimentare la dignit�� universale: l���autonomia individuale e la sovranit�� sono nozioni simili che si sostengono a vicenda, ma il partner politico naturale della concezione kantiana dell���autonomia individuale resta la sovranit�� nazionale, non gi�� la sua sublimazione nella dimensione sovranazionale. Ci�� che, in altre parole, pu�� essere racchiuso nel cd. ���cosmosovranismo���, che muove dagli effetti di ricaduta dei valori globali direttamente conseguenti alle dinamiche del mondo internazionale (e cosmopolita). Il punto di vista d…
Corruption and Hosophobia
2012
This paper discusses the relationship between corruption and purity. It draws on resesarch on corruption in political science and research on hosophobia (fear of the impure) in organization studies. The paper presents a theory of corruption based on failure of separation between the public and the private, and discusses rules of separation, which are crucial for upholding the illusion of public purity. However, this theory of corruption is complemented by the concept of hosophobia to show how organizations have dual relationship to corruption. Drawing on two Swedish cases, the paper intends to show hosophobia in the everyday functioning of and organization, and how occasional cleansing proc…
Rule of the One: Avicenna, Bahmanyār, and al-Rāzī on the Argument from the Mubāḥathāt
2020
Avicenna is a strong proponent of what some of the later ones call qāʻidat al-wāḥid or ‘rule of the one’ (RO). The gist of RO states: from the one only one directly proceeds. In the secondary literature, discussion of this Avicennian rule is usually limited to a particular application of it i.e., the issue of emanation. As result, it’s not really clear what RO means, nor why Avicenna endorsed it. In this paper, I try and remedy this situation by doing two things – one on the taṣawwur front, the other on the tasdīq. First, explain just what the terms of RO amount to – that is, its subject and predicate. In doing this, I distinguish between a narrow and a broad understanding of RO, and the sh…
Who Can See My Stuff? : Online Self-Disclosure and Gender Differences on Facebook
2018
This study investigates the gendered privacy practices and concerns on Facebook, by leaning on the idea of privacy management as a form of digital labour. We analyse if young Facebook users are more concerned about the privacy against other users than against Facebook as a company or against third-party partners. We also analyse if privacy concerns and visibility rules are differentiated by gender. Using a structured online survey, we collected responses from a sample of 813 Italian university students (aged 18-34). Our results show that the respondents have just slightly more privacy concerns against other users than against Facebook, and much less against third-party partners. Unlike a ma…
Starvation can diversify the population structure and virulence strategies of an environmentally transmitting fish pathogen
2014
Background. Generalist bacterial pathogens, with the ability for environmental survival and growth, often face variable conditions during their outside-host period. Abiotic factors (such as nutrient deprivation) act as selection pressures for bacterial characteristics, but their effect on virulence is not entirely understood. “Sit and wait” hypothesis expects that long outside-host survival selects for increased virulence, but maintaining virulence in the absence of hosts is generally expected to be costly if active investments are needed. We analysed how long term starvation influences bacterial population structure and virulence of an environmentally transmitting fish pathogen Flavobacter…
