Iso-valence Co(II) and mixed-valence Co(II/III) tetranuclear complexes: Synthesis, structure, magnetic properties and DFT study
2013
Abstract The reaction of Co(ClO4)2·6H2O with symmetrical N4O3 coordinating heptadentate ligand (H3L) in presence of triethylamine yielded cobalt(II) tetranuclear complexes [Co4(L)2](ClO4)2, 1. When the same reaction is carried out with sodium azide instead of triethylamine afforded tetranuclear mixed-valence Co(II/III) species, [Co4(L)2(μ1,3–N3)2](ClO4)2, 2. Here L3− is the deprotonated form of 2,6-bis[{{(1-hydroxy-2-methylpropan-2-yl)(pyridine-2-ylmethyl)}amino}methyl]-4-methylphenol. Complex 1 crystallizes in the cubic system, space group Fd-3c, with unit-cell parameters a = b = c = 43.320(5) A, Z = 48, whereas complex 2 crystallizes in the space group I41/a in the tetragonal crystal syst…
Paesi abbandonati e il ritorno della vita con l'arte
2020
In Italia, nella seconda metà del Novecento, numerosi furono i centri urbani abbandonati, a causa, ad esempio, dell’emigrazione, dei dissesti idrogeologici e degli eventi sismici. In Sicilia, i paesi di Gibellina, Salaparuta, Poggioreale, nella provincia di Trapani e Montevago, nella provincia di Agrigento, dopo il terremoto, del gennaio 1968, che colpì la parte occidentale dell’Isola, furono abbandonati e, negli anni successivi, ricostruiti, anche in siti distanti. Certamente l’attenzione iniziale fu rivolta alla costruzione delle nuove città, mentre dopo i danni dovuti alle scosse sismiche i resti degli antichi paesi furono lasciati al loro lento ed inesorabile degrado. Più recentemente, …

Kayne's model of Case and Finnish nominal phrases
2008
The standard view concerning Case assignment or valuation is that Case is valued to determiner phrases (DPs) in syntax. Recently, Kayne has proposed an alternative model, in which Case is valued to lexical elements rather than to phrases. This article cites several facts from Finnish in support of this model. A detailed Kaynean model of Case is developed. According to this model, abstract Case is valued to lexical elements by the highest ranking c-commanding Case assigner when each phase (CP,vP) is sealed, where ranking is based on a particular Case Hierarchy and a simple notion of locality. Configurations in which Case is seemingly assigned under a spec–head relation are provided with an a…
Human Simulation and Sustainability : Ontological, Epistemological, and Ethical Reflections
2020
This article begins with a brief outline of recent advances in the application of computer modeling to sustainability research, identifying important gaps in coverage and associated limits in methodological capability, particularly in regard to taking account of the tangled human factors that are often impediments to a sustainable future. It then describes some of the ways in which a new transdisciplinary approach within &ldquo
Understanding the purchasing behavior of consumers in response to sustainable marketing practices: An empirical analysis in the food domain
2021
Sustainability has become an important driver in defining business strategies, affecting most critical corporate functions and changing the way in which value is created, communicated, and distributed. This is increasingly impacting marketing practices, in particular, through promoting the development of sustainable marketing in the food sector. In line with this, our study aimed to investigate if and how sustainable marketing practices affect consumer loyalty to a specific brand. To answer our research questions, we relied on the results of a survey submitted to a sample of 907 Italian consumers of biscuits. Results showed that the consumers’ attention to sustainable issues (in the absence…
50 Shades of Green: Insights into Personal Values and Worldviews as Drivers of Green Purchasing Intention, Behaviour, and Experience
2021
Despite the booming interest in determinants of green (i.e., sustainable) consumption, the psychological factors that influence pro-environmental consumption patterns are not yet fully understood. To answer this call, we developed and analysed a model that offers an integrative approach to sustainable consumption patterns by addressing the full palette of consumers’ personal value orientations. Specifically, we linked consumers’ egoistic, altruistic, and biospheric values at the personal level to pro-environmental purchasing intentions, behaviours, and experiences. Furthermore, we examined whether implicit beliefs about the balance between humanity and nature (i.e., worldviews) moderate the…
Crowdfunding in the Cultural Industries
2020
AbstractCultural production has stood at the forefront of crowdfunding adoption representing some of the first crowdfunding campaigns on record. This development emerged as part of comprehensive value chain reconfigurations in the cultural sector, which were triggered by the advent of digitalization on the one hand and the downsizing in public funds on the other. As a result, the emerging phenomenon here labelled as ‘cultural crowdfunding’ (CCF) has captured the imagination of researchers and practitioners. The study of CCF is of high relevance, as it presses creators to strike a balance between the commercial and the non-commercial, the economic and the cultural outcomes, as well as the au…
Crowdfunding and Social Entrepreneurship: Spotlight on Intermediaries
2019
This study contributes to the literature by describing how crowdfunding platforms that host social entrepreneurship projects build and preserve legitimacy. We study three intermediaries, analyzing the actions they take to ensure that creators and funders perceive crowdfunding as a trustworthy form of alternative finance. This study shows that the legitimacy that funders ascribe to a project&rsquo
Alliances between For-Profit and Non-Profit Organizations as an Instrument to Implement the Economy for the Common Good
2020
The model of the Economy for the Common Good (ECG) has cooperation as one of its main principles. This alternative economic model proposes to prioritize cooperation over competition to favor the creation of social value. From this point of view, strategic alliances between organizations can be used as an instrument that supports implementation of the ECG model. In recent years, alliances between for-profit and non-profit entities have been strengthened as a method to facilitate actions focused on social responsibility and sustainability. Moreover, the ECG model has become an adequate management framework for corporate sustainability. This work aims to connect alliances between for-profit an…
