The Market Reorientation of Farms: The Case of Olive Growing in the Nebrodi Area
2014
In addition to safeguarding the landscape, olive growing makes a unique contribution to protecting the environment and the agricultural ecosystem. Olive growing in mountainous and hilly areas is severely constrained by structural limitations. Rural tourism can be a potential strategy to increase the competitiveness of olive-growing activities. After an initial analysis of the relationship between landscape, tourism, and olive growing, this study focused on olive growing in the Nebrodi area. In particular, we examined two case studies of olive farms to analyze the related production costs and market positioning strategies.
La opinión pública ante la vigilancia masiva de datos. El difícil equilibrio entre acceso a la información y seguridad nacional
2015
RESUMEN: La transparencia y el acceso a la información convierten a la sociedad en una participante activa del proceso de rendición de cuentas de los poderes públicos. Pero, esa libertad informativa tiene límites, como lo es el secreto que necesariamente impone, en la mayor parte de las ocasiones, la salvaguarda de la seguridad nacional. El secreto - y por lo tanto, la excepción a la regla general de la publicidad- tiene como misión impedir que se conozcan ciertas actividades de inteligencia, que recaban y tratan información con la finalidad de garantizar el éxito de determinadas acciones de los servicios de inteligencia-defensa o de prevenir riesgos. En este trabajo se aborda la difícil co…
La complejidad de la gobernanza del patrimonio inmaterial en el medio rural: el caso de «Els Pelegrins de Les Useres (provincia de Castellón)»
2019
En el nuevo escenario de modernidad avanzada se observan nuevas dinámicas de patrimonialización que pueden significar una oportunidad para los espacios rurales, pero también una amenaza. Desvelar cómo los diferentes agentes tanto globales como locales en el territorio van tejiendo buenas y malas prácticas, y cuáles son las dificultades, las contradicciones y los conflictos con los que se encuentran tan solo es posible a través de un enfoque interdisciplinar que aúne la visión territorial, constructivista y comunitaria. Este artículo tiene como objetivo identificar y diferenciar dos dinámicas de patrimonialización poniendo el acento en cómo se construyen estos procesos, diferenciando dos eje…
Qualità della didattica universitaria e sviluppo della capacità decisionale. Il modello ADVP per garantire i passaggi da L-19 a LM-85bis.
2020
Il presente contributo intende offrire una riflessione sulle competenze attese individuate attraverso la formulazione dei descrittori di Dublino dei CdS in Scienze dell’Educazione (L-19) e Scienze della Formazione Primaria (LM-85bis) istituiti presso l’Ateneo di Palermo e nello stesso tempo proporre un modello per lo sviluppo della maturità professional e necessaria a garantire scelte consapevoli, mature e responsabili. L’analisi condotta ci ha permesso, in una seconda fase di individuare gli obiettivi formativi finali scelti seguendo il modello proposto dalle Linee Guida dell ’Anvur, e di scegliere il modello dell’Activaction du Developpement Vocationnel et Personnel quale strumento per lo…

A Personalist Ontological Approach to Synthetic Biology
2015
Although synthetic biology is a promising discipline, it also raises serious ethical questions that must be addressed in order to prevent unwanted consequences and to ensure that its progress leads toward the good of all. Questions arise about the role of this discipline in a possible redefinition of the concept of life and its creation. With regard to the products of synthetic biology, the moral status that they should be given as well as the ethically correct way to behave towards them are not clear. Moreover, risks that could result from a misuse of this technology or from an accidental release of synthetic organisms into the environment cannot be ignored; concerns about biosecurity and …
Legislative reforms and market dynamics in the provision of urban water service by private contract operators in Spain
2022
Abstract This paper studies the dynamics of concentration in the Spanish market for the provision of urban water service by private contract operators in the 2000–2020 period. The market is highly concentrated. Concentration increased until 2007, at which point it started to decline when Law 30/2007 on Public Sector Contracts and Organic Law 8/2007 on Political Party Financing were passed; before rising again from 2016 onwards. This latter trend results from strategic behaviour by the two leading operators, acquiring smaller companies with a notable presence in some regional markets. Further legislative reforms aimed at safeguarding space for competition are thus proposed.
Ambienti, culture, patrimoni. Politiche e pratiche di tutela - Abstract
The complexity and instability of the current historical situation that characterizes the social and political life of our country, as well as the rapid socio-cultural transformations imposed by globalization, lead us to believe that an articulated and frequent confrontation between social sciences and public administration managers and bureaucratic systems is increasingly necessary and useful to respond to the new needs in the field of territorial and landscape planning. The critical issues regarding the management, enhancement and safeguarding of protected areas (be they environmental, landscape or archaeological) have inevitably been overshadowed and in some cases aggravated by the arriv…
3D DIGITAL MODELS FOR A WIDESPREAD MUSEUM: THE RENON’S “BAUERNHÖFE”
2019
Abstract. The aim of the paper is to study the characteristics of different 3D digital models (point clouds, mesh, CSG, BIM) for the realization of a museum of historical buildings widespread in the territory of South Tyrol through the 3D modeling of several farmhouses between the towns of Collalbo, Longomoso and Siffiano, in the Renon area. Therefore, moving from a defined case study, the paper proposes a workflow for model choice, use, and sharing considering also users profile.The objective is to create a system that allows, the sharing, both on site and remotely, of farmhouses digital models, information, images and documents found during the research. The purpose is to enhance the terr…
Awareness and knowledge of cyberethics: A comparative study of preservice teachers in Malta, Norway, and Spain
2021
This paper explores the awareness and knowledge of cyberethics held by pre-service teachers across three European countries. The study was conducted via an online survey and yielded 1,131 responses from pre-service teachers in Malta, Norway, and Spain. The facets of cyberethics included in this study focused on behaving responsibly online, safeguarding privacy, respecting copyright, seeking consent of friends before posting images or videos on social media platforms, and considering their professional identity as future teachers when posting online. The findings indicate that pre-service teachers reported relatively similar levels of competence in applying copyright and respecting privacy r…
