IMAGE PROCESSING IN POLLUTION VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT OF SICILY AQUIFERS
2009
It is generally acknowledged that vulnerability mapping represents an essential tool for territory management. Intrinsic vulnerability can be generally described as “the susceptibility of the aquifer systems, in their different components and in different geometric and hydrodynamics situations, to swallow and diffuse, also mitigating the effects, a fluid or water-transported pollutant, in such a way to produce impact on the groundwater quality, in space and time”. Assessment procedures of vulnerability consider a number of parameters, the estimation of which is usually difficult and very often insufficient to correctly represent aquifer’s features. As aquifers are closely influenced by nume…

Human Trafficking: The Viscous Link Between Vulnerability and Proximity Violence
2020
The definition of “human trafficking”, adopted by the United Nations Protocol, clearly describes how the international community has outlined the concepts of victim and perpetrator. Despite the definitive effort made by this Protocol, the present chapter seeks to throw light on the fuzzy area existing within the rapport between vulnerability and proximity violence which makes the consensual exploitation of the victim by the trafficker possible as well as making it difficult to outline its contours in the courtrooms.
La forza politicizzante del dolore: le resilient communities in Messico
2014
La violenza di genere è una problematica che affligge l’intero Stato del Messico, in particolar modo la zona fronteriza del nord tra cui Ciudad Juárez, Tijuana, quella centrale dello stato del Michoacán e Guanajuato e la zona sud in Oaxaca e Chiapas. La violazione dei diritti umani universali, che sfocia in atti di femminicidio e casi di violenza sessuale, è interpretabile in relazione al contesto storico-culturale, in quanto sia il passato postcoloniale di matrice spagnola sia quello contemporaneo capitalista prettamente statunitense ha contribuito all’affermasi di una politica dello sfruttamento basato sulla corruzione politica e la criminalità. Il presente contributo propone, pertanto, u…
Asylum Reforms, Discrimination of Refugees with Special Needs and Practices of Resistance in Local Contexts of Europe
2019
The standardization of the asylum system demonstrated a gap in providing specific assistance to asylum seekers with specific vulnerabilities as required in the Art. 17 of the 2013/33/EU Directive. The aim of this proposal is to describe the results of the research "Provide", founded by the EU (Rights, Equality and Citizenship Program 2014-2020), conducted in the last two years . The reasearch, based on mixed methods, highlights a problem of legislative discomfort between the EU and the different States; a gap in the assistance of migrants with specific needs; a problem of lack of understanding of phenomenon of proximity violence. In France, it is highlighted a lack of porosity between the C…
Consentimiento de los menores de edad en las redes sociales: especial referencia Tiktok

L'accès à la justice de la personne vulnérable en droit interne : actes du colloque de Besançon, 27 mars 2015
2015
Avec la contribution du Centre de recherche sur le droit des marchés et des investissements internationaux (Credimi) de l'Université de Bourgogne; National audience; La 4e de couverture indique : "Cet ouvrage, qui a pour ambition de s'interroger sur la prise en compte de la vulnérabilité du justiciable par le service public de la justice, est issu d'une journée d'études organisée à l'Université de Franche-Comté le 27 mars 2015. Si des travaux avaient déjà été consacrés à l'étude de la vulnérabilité saisie par le droit, peu d'entre eux s'étaient intéressés à la question de l'accès de la personne vulnérable au juge dans une perspective de droit comparé interne, visant à analyser et à confront…
Silent say, saying effective and discourse mask
2021
In communication, every speaker must choose meticulously the aptness in the word, the gesture, the smile, the look or even the silence. The being-speaker hides and beyond protects himself behind his discursive mask which provides him with a linguistic security. While many disciplines - social psychology, psychoanalysis and philosophy – have seized the notion of the mask in their frame of reference, this concept still remains absent today in the language sciences. However, the game of masks substitution is fundamental in language activity. This game is so usual that we do not even notice it anymore, except in situations where we are explicitly asked to make an effort to adapt to the rule of …
Security Standards Applied to Drinking Water
2021
This chapter presents security standards as applied to drinking water, based on the assumption that freshwater sources face huge threats for humankind both qualitatively and quantitatively due to uncertain global changes, namely population growth, rapid urbanization, and climate change. The study investigates whether the International Featured Standards (IFS—Food), which are complementary to HACCP (Hazard analysis and critical control point), can be used as a system of indicators to measure water security. The case study focuses on bottled water, by identifying structural and contingent risk factors for water as essential food and investigates the suitability of the IFS instrument as an ind…
