Resilienza e vulnerabilità psicologica nel corso dello sviluppo

Lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 activity is increased in patients with definite familial hypercholesterolemia compared with other forms of hy…
2018
Background and Aim: Lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2(Lp-PLA2) plays a key role in atherosclerosis development. It is considered a marker of increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and plaque vulnerability. Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is a genetic disorder characterized by elevated plasma levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and a higher prevalence of early CVD. Our aim was to evaluate the differences in Lp-PLA2activity in a population of hypercholesterolemic patients with and without definite FH. Methods and Results: Hypercholesterolemic patients were consecutively recruited. Definite FH was defined according to Dutch Lipid Clinic Network criteria â¥8. All pat…

Vulnerabilità e resilienza nelle politiche neoliberali di cooperazione allo sviluppo
2019
The essay is dedicated to the particular meaning that the vulnerability-resilience nexus has assumed in development cooperation policies, to observe how neoliberal governmentality regulates lives on the global scene today, its implications in terms of subjectivation, and the forms of life it validates and those that disqualify. Particular attention is paid to the neoliberal turn of the concepts of vulnerability and resilience, to the securitization processes, and precariousness of the lives generated by the abandonment practices in terms of lack of social protection and political recognition.
Vulnerabilità sociali e diseguaglianze digitali post pandemia: l’inclusione trascurata dei migranti
2022
The pandemic has been an event capable of radicalising trends that were already underway: growth in inequalities, crisis in central and local administrations, crisis in public regulation and essential public services (health, education, training and work), increase in areas of social vulnerability. Recent studies and research clearly confirm the link between social vulnerability, inequalities, exclusion and Covid-19 in the experience of non-Italian citizens, as well as the close connection between exposure to a high risk of contagion and conditions of poverty and social margin- ality, defined as stratification of precariousness linked to the migrant experience. Nevertheless, this specific s…
Manifold instances of proximity violence and proximity vulnerability of the migrant women
2020
Over the past few decades and up until 2017, Sicily has hosted increasing numbers of African fugitives into the European Union. Within this markedly multicultural context, the authors carried out a two-part qualitative research project, the first part consisting in participative observation of a number of sub-Saharan women hosted by some of the island’s refugee reception centres, victims of abuse, followed by a set of semi-structured interviews administered to them. The aim of the paper was to analyse some of the role positions found in gender dynamics among migrants, throwing light on possible processes by which mechanisms of submission to and normalisation of gender violence seem to have …
Oltre l'irrilevanza del consenso e la colpa individuale. Posizioni di vulnerabilità e responsabilità sistemiche nello sfruttamento e nella tratta del…
2018
Il concetto ontologico di dignità umana, kantianamente inteso, sembra sostanziare le disposizioni normative nazionali e internazionali che delimitano la libertà contrattuale. Eppure, il bilanciamento dei principi di dignità e libertà contrattuale è un’operazione molto più problematica di quanto possa di primo acchito sembrare perché anche la libertà contrattuale è un principio di difficile definizione, che in un mercato del lavoro liberale tende a tramutarsi nello strumento attraverso il quale è sancito il potere delle parti più forti, mentre quelle più deboli sono piuttosto forzate ad “acconsentire” alle condizioni imposte all’interno di una negoziazione asimmetrica, secondo una dinamica b…
Professionisti dell'accoglienza in Sicilia. Riflessività e consapevolezza in tema di violenza di prossimità.
2020
L’articolo descrive i risultati di una ricerca qualitativa, finanziata dalla Comunità Europea, finalizzata a conoscere il grado di riconoscimento della violenza di prossimità di cui sono vittima i rifugiati/richiedenti asilo da parte degli operatori che lavorano nel circuito dell’accoglienza nei CAS e negli SPRAR siciliani. La ricerca ha previsto la conduzione di 78 interviste a stakeholders. Il tema della violenza di prossimità viene quindi indagato attraverso le testimonianze degli operatori intervistati e la pluralità di cause e situazioni che la rendono possibile. The article describes the results of a qualitative research, finacied by EU aimed at knowing the degree of recognition of th…
Family Issues. Difficulties in Migrant Family Life Exacerbated by the Pandemic.
2022
Most of the time, when we talk about the family, we think of the indigenous family, but what happens when the focus shifts to foreign families? Furthermore, in a time of pandemic, what repercussions and impacts have there been on foreign families? And have the interventions proposed by the government to deal with COVID-19 and to support families, taken foreign families into account? The issue is quite complex because it has to deal, on the one hand, with definitional problems related to the difficulties in identifying types of foreign families (Ambrosini, 2020b) present in Italy, and, on the other hand, with an analysis of the impact that the virus has had on family structures. Migrant fami…
