Análisis contrastivo de la (des)cortesía en los comentarios digitales del periódico 20minutos.es y del Facebook de viajacontumascota.com: anonimato y…
2019
Esta investigación analiza las diferencias entre dos tipos de discursos digitales: las intervenciones reactivas a cinco posts por parte de los seguidores de una página de Facebook, ViajaconTuMascota.com, en la que existe cierta camaradería por la afición compartida; y los comentarios de lectores anónimos, entre los que no se establece esa solidaridad, a cinco noticias del periódico digital, 20minutos.es. Se pretende comprobar cómo inciden estas diferencias, la presencia o ausencia de solidaridad y el anonimato frente a la identidad real, cuando se producen desacuerdos: si se mantiene la cortesía social, a través de una cortesía mitigadora, o si se quiebra al activarse una estrategia de cibe…

2021
A cross-sectional observational study was conducted to describe the lifestyle of people ≥90 years, living in Evdilos or Raches, two municipalities of the Greek island of Ikaria, classified a longevity blue zone. The 71 participants were interviewed and underwent the Mediterranean Islands study food frequency questionnaire (MEDIS-FFQ) and the international physical activity questionnaire (IPAQ).

A total of 62.0% attended Panigiria festivals. Access to primary health care was considered difficult in th…
Fair trade and global cognitive orientation: a focus on Spanish fair trade consumers
2007
In the past few years, there has been an increase in the ‘ethical consumer’, characterized by more reflexive values like solidarity, social responsibility, multiculturalism and ecology. This idea has found support in the appearance and development of proposals like fair trade, along with others, such as responsible consumption, the recycling business or sustainable development. In a parallel way, also during the past few years, various analysts have pointed out that the phenomenon of globalization is changing not only the aspect of the world but also our way of perceiving it, which is progressively becoming a ‘global orientation’. In the framework of these two tendencies, this paper examine…
COLLECTIVE DELIBERATION: A CONTEMPORARY CONTRIBUTION OF BRAZILIAN BIOETHICS TO THE SUS' (UNIFIELD HEALTH SERVICE) PRACTICES
2017
Resumo Este ensaio teve por objetivo analisar a necessidade de nova excelência profissional pautada na deliberação coletiva, debatendo a ética aplicada às questões de saúde nas experiências de Brasil e Espanha. O funcionamento prático dos comitês de bioética na Espanha avança na constituição do método deliberativo como participação coletiva na decisão profissional, discutindo a importância da democracia deliberativa para a construção de nova civilidade ética. No Brasil, após as primeiras décadas de construção do Sistema Único de Saúde, amplia-se o leque de participação dos profissionais, primeiramente nos conselhos de saúde e, com a resolução CNS n. 196/96, também nos comitês de ética em pe…

Migranti e lotta alla povertà. La Corte costituzionale nega il reddito di cittadinanza ai titolari del permesso di soggiorno per ricerca di un'occupa…
2022
Il commento analizza la recente sentenza n. 19/2022 della Corte costituzionale, in cui il Giudice delle leggi ha ritenuto costituzionalmente legittima la previsione legislativa, che subordina alla titolarità del permesso di soggiorno di lungo periodo l’ottenimento del reddito di cittadinanza per i migranti extracomunitari. The essay analyses the recent Italian constitutional court ruling (no. 19/2022), that deems constitutional social security law, which subordinates the granting of minimum income guaranteed to the ownership of permanent residence permit for non-EU citizens.
A lack of meaning?
2020
This article explores the ‘lack of meaning’ in contemporary society as a consequence of Western dualist thought paradigms and ontologies, via Gilles Deleuze’s concept of ‘reactive nihilism’ following the colloquial murder of God. The article then explores processual and new materialist approaches in the understanding of the lived and carnal self, arguing for immanent and senseful materiality as an ethical platform for religious, environmental, and societal solidarity for tomorrow. For the theoretical justification of the processual approach in understanding the enfleshed self, the article employs John Dupré’s processual approach in the philosophy of biology, as well as Astrida Neimani’s cri…
Are "good guys" more likely to participate in local agriculture?
2015
Abstract In recent years a new form of food production and distribution organisation, as part of small-scale and local agriculture, has been gaining ground. Generically termed short supply chains (SSCs), this new model of food procurement comprises various forms such as community-supported agriculture, box schemes and solidarity purchase groups. Consumer participation in SSCs is dictated by deep motivations: while consumers are principally encouraged by the desire to preserve local producers, as well as the social and environmental aspects of farming, the attraction of SSCs is also tied to different and more complex ways of perceiving food quality. The quality issue in SSCs is not only seen…
ONG internacionales y solidaridad global. Un análisis referido a la sociedad española (International NGOs and Global Solidarity. A Focus on Spanish S…
2007
Several analysts have pointed out the emergence of a global consciousness that is closely related to the process of globalization of social life. It has been dered that this global consciousness, which is supported on an expansion of the geographical space of responsibility from which citizens feel they are being begged for aid, is encouraged by the rev lution of information and communication technologies (ICT), the contents broadcast by the mass media and the action of international NGOs. From the context of these and starting from the data c ntained in a CIS survey (E-2419), this paper seeks to contrast empirically the hypothesis of the modifying action of the «cultural reference framewor…
Organic consumption and consumer participation in food community networks
2012
Due to improvements in welfare, new food consumption concerns have emerged in Europe. Such concerns go beyond issues related to food safety and market prices. Solidarity Purchasing Groups (GASs) are one way to combine utilitarian and ethical aspects: in these groups the trade in organic products predominates. The aim of GAS groups is to primarily develop a local economy which is both ethical and fair, providing networks of economic solidarity through social relations and economic-territorial districts. This paper sets out to determine the profiles of the consumer groups that constitute GASs in Sicily (southern Italy) in order to search for key elements of the movement in terms of both commu…
