Formaciones sociales y opresión en Marx
2018
The text explains the difference between Marx?s concept of «oppression» and others as «coercion» by Durkheim or «domination» by Weber. The article then establishes, in a methodical way, the centrality of a passage from Capital, in which three different theories on «oppression» appear. It?s explained that two of them are rather a philosophical antinomy. The other, relative to the heteronomy of social time, can be completed by defining the heteronomy of social space, which gives it analytical virtuality. Some examples are given.
METAPHORS, HYRIDISATION AND SOCIAL SPACE
2018
Il contributo è il risultato dell'attività di ricerca condotta durante il workshop internazionale promosso dal Raffles Design Institute di Hong Kong e dall'Università di Palermo e organizzato con lo scopo di generare nuovi progetti nelle due città, evocando "nuove immagini per nuovi significati "e riconfigurando spazi e comunità. L'articolo descrive alcuni dei risultati del workshop partendo dal concetto delle metafore come giustapposizione di immagini apparentemente distanti, ma che, come risultato della stessa metafora, sono ricomposte in un'immagine diversa, carica di nuovi significati semantici. The contribution is the result of the research activity during an international workshop: th…
Diversidades geográficas e construção de um conhecimento crítico para participar em rede. A experiência do Geoforo Iberoamericano. Balanço inicial
2011
The diversity of people, cultures and social situations in Latin America countries does not obstruct the critical and honest dialogue concerning the research carried out on the learning of world problems. Geography, as a science, can contribute to this challenge, but it needs, then, to leave the intellectual, corporate and academic obstacles that prevent its study by the pupils. In this work we communicate the initiatives developed by a group of teachers by means of the Geoforo, which takes advantage of the facilities of the cyberspace, from the Geocrítica portal of the University of Barcelona.
Transformative technologies, spatial changes : essays on mobile phones and the Internet
2009
Sakari Taipale tarkastelee väitöskirjassaan sitä, kuinka matkapuhelimen ja internetin käyttö vaikuttaa sosiaalisten tilojen muodostumiseen.Uudet informaatio- ja kommunikaatioteknologiat ovat monipuolistaneet sosiaalisen vuorovaikutuksen muotoja. Matkapuhelimen ja internetin avulla sosiaalisia tiloja, erilaisia toimijoiden yhteenliittymiä, voidaan luoda tietoverkoissa ilman toisten ihmisten fyysistä läsnäoloa. Tämän seurauksena sosiaalisen tilan kahden keskeisen osatekijän, rajojen ja tarkoituksen, välinen suhde on muuttunut. Rajat näyttävät menettäneen suhteellista merkitystään sosiaalisen tilan koossapysyvyyden kannalta, kun taas tilan tarkoituksen merkitys on vahvistunut.- Verkkoympäristö…
El «nacionalismo metodológico» como obstáculo en la investigación sociológica sobre migraciones internacionales
2007
La globalizacion ha evidenciado la necesidad de cuestionar el ‘nacionalismo metodologico’ como presupuesto fundamental de la primera modernidad. Este cuestionamiento rompe la asuncion de que los contornos de la sociedad coinciden con los del estado- nacion, y supone un desafio epistemologico para la sociologia, que desde su nacimiento adopto un esquema de clasificacion del espacio social que podria denominarse isomorfismo estado-sociedad. En este articulo realizamos una reflexion sobre los desafios epistemologicos y metodologicos que las migraciones internacionales suponen para la sociologia y las practicas de investigacion social mayoritarias, que generalmente arrastran inercias y presupue…

Contenitori_Contenuti
2020
Scriveva Camilleri in “La forma dell’acqua”: «[…] L’acqua non ha una forma propria, ed è come tutti gli altri liquidi, che assumono questa in ragione del contenitore che li circonda, che li contiene […]». Nel suo romanzo del 1994, infatti, l’allusione è alla ‘verità’ e questa può assumere qualsiasi forma. Ma sarà proprio il contesto in cui viene cercata a definirne la sua forma, la sua dimensione. Quindi l’ambiente, le circostanze, le condizioni di un evento, possono aiutare a trovare la pura verità e questa sarà sempre più vicina alla realtà quanto più ne sono definite le circostanze, l’ambiente e lo spazio. Ma l’Architettura non dovrebbe seguire gli stessi principi? L’Architettura non dov…
