Tempo ed efficienza nell'azione amministrativa

2010

Il lavoro si sofferma in particolare sull’importanza che la legislazione sull’attività amministrativa autoritativa attribuisce alla dimensione temporale, a partire dalla legge 241/90 fino alla l. n. 69 del 2009. Il fattore tempo ha ormai assunto la dignità di > collegato alla > dei rapporti tra Amministrazione e privati, che è un valore costituzionalmente garantito. In questo senso rilevano due disposizioni della l. 69/2009: l’art. 29, il cui comma 2-bis ha ricondotto alla categoria dei livelli essenziali delle prestazioni, sia l’obbligo di concludere il procedimento entro il termine prefissato, sia quello di garantire la durata massima dei procedimenti. E l’art. 2-bis, che ha previsto, tra…

Senso e significati: un esempio

2018

Il secolare dibattito sulla semantica della musica ha prodotto innumerevoli studi, e diverse teorie che riflettono la grande varietà dei modi significanti che possono ritrovarsi nella musica d’arte occidentale di ogni tempo. Questo scritto propone come strumento di chiarificazione e di sintesi la distinzione tra rappresentazione e espressione che ha origine storica ed evidenza ermeneutica. La rappresentazione può cogliersi in tutte le componenti strutturali di una composizione musicale determinate, chiuse, codificate che si dispongono percettivamente nella dimensione spaziale; l’espressione in quelle indeterminate, fluide, tragressive che riflettono il tempo psicologico. Un esempio straordi…

When did biopolitics begin? : Actuality and potentiality in historical events

2022

The article addresses the ongoing debate about the origins of biopolitics. While Foucault’s analysis of biopolitics approached it as a modern rationality of government, Agamben’s Homo Sacer series presented biopolitics as having a longer provenance, dating back to the antiquity. These polar positions are not mutually exclusive but coexist in these and other theories of biopolitics, which approach its object as both modern and ancient, having its chronological origin in the eighteenth to nineteenth centuries yet also possessing a prehistory of precursors. The article interprets this dual origin in terms of Paolo Virno’s theory of historical temporality, which distinguishes between the chron…

On Temporal Aspects in Cross-Cultural e-Collaboration Between Finland and Japan Research Teams

2018

Time is an essential dimension in cross-cultural e-collaboration among research project teams. Understanding temporal aspects and project dynamics in cross-cultural research e-collaboration and related processes can improve team members' skills in cross-cultural communication and increase their cultural competence. The present case cultures are Finnish and Japanese, and the case universities are the University of Jyväskylä (Finland) and Keio University (Japan). Three issues are addressed in this article. First, cultural dimensions and time models in the cross-cultural e-collaboration context are discussed. Second, temporal aspects related to e-collaboration activities are introduced. Third,…

"Tentative lessons of experience: Arendt, essayism, and ""the social"" reconsidered"

2014

The article addresses the role of the essay in Hannah Arendt’s theorizing. By paying attention to Arendt’s style, we are better able to draw the full conclusions from the well-known fact that she was not a system-builder but took her bearings from concrete experiences. First, the concept of experience—too often taken at face value—is explicated. It is argued that Arendt’s understanding of the concept cannot be reduced to her personal experiences, but must be read against the background of the common world. A crucial dimension in the incorporation of experiences into the Arendtian political theory is the essayistic style of her writings. The essay, as an experimental and tentative platform,…

Temporality and firm de-internationalization : Three historical approaches

2022

This paper contributes to process-oriented international business research by showing how three distinct historical approaches can enrich theoretical understanding concerning temporality in firm de-internationalization. First, we show how comparative historical analysis unleashes the causal structure of the process and provides explanatory understanding of the temporal grounding of the mechanisms driving the process. Second, we explicate how interpretive history reveals the embeddedness of de-internationalization in the prevailing spirit of the time. Finally, we consider how poststructuralist history enables us to focus on the strong subjectivity of individuals in which multiple temporaliti…

Invisible streams : Process-thinking in Arendt

2016

For Hannah Arendt, some of the most distinctive features of the modern age derived from the adoption of a process-imaginary in science, history, and administration. This article examines Arendt’s work, identifying what it calls the ‘process-frame’ in her criticism of imperialism, economy, and the biologization of politics. It discusses an interpretation in which ‘natality’ presents a completely alternative mode of temporality, a resistance to the process-frame. This interpretation, it is argued, needs to be specified by taking into account that political action both interrupts and starts processes of its own. To confine and overcome the negative effects of process-framing, it is important t…

Group‐based instant messaging in Finnish residential elder care work : taming the technology or vice versa?

2022

As new communication technologies become embedded in care work, there is a need to understand how they affect its temporal order. This article analyses group-based mobile instant messaging (IM) in residential elder care work in Finland. The article asks (i) how care workers use group-based messaging for work; and (ii) how they negotiate the rules for its use. Theoretically, the article draws on science and technology studies focusing on ‘taming’ and ‘unleashing’ (Pols, 2017), and temporality (Wajcman, 2008). Analysis is based on a qualitative interview study of care workers and nurses (n = 25) conducted in 2018. The results showed how the time-shifting functionality of IM allows employees t…

Lineaarisuus ja vertikaalisuus Terry Rileyn sävellyksessä In C

2016

Tutkimuksessa perehdyttiin lineaarisuuteen ja vertikaalisuuteen Terry Rileyn sävellyksessä In C. Lineaarisuus ja vertikaalisuus ovat temporaalisuuden eri muotoja. Terry Rileyn In C on amerikkalaisen minimalistisen musiikin klassikkoteos, jonka temporaalisuutta ei ole aiemmin tutkittu. Koska minimalistisen musiikin suhde temporaalisuuteen on ainutlaatuinen suhteessa mihin tahansa muuhun länsimaiseen musiikkityyliin, tulisi sen klassikkoteosta tutkia erityisesti temporaalisuuden kautta. Tutkimuksen tavoitteena oli tuottaa uutta tietoa In C:n temporaalisuuksista. Tutkimuskysymykseni ovat: Millaisten musiikillisten seikkojen varaan lineaarisuus ja vertikaalisuus tässä teoksessa rakentuvat?…
