De-naturalizing the “predatory”: A study of “bogus” publications at public sector universities in Pakistan
2022
Predatory publishing has recently emerged as a menace in academia. University professors and researchers often exploit this practice for their economic gains and institutional prestige. The present study investigates such existing predatory publishing practices in Pakistani public sector universities using Bourdieu’s (1991) concept of symbolic violence. For this purpose, we analyzed 495 articles published by 50 university professors in the social sciences and humanities over the period 2017-2021. We also conducted semi-structured interviews with 20 postgraduate students to gather their perspectives on publishing practices. The study shows that 69% of the sample papers were published in pred…

La tratta degli esseri umani. Nessi vischiosi fra vulnerabilità e violenza di prossimità
2021
La definizione di “tratta di esseri umani”, adottata dal Protocollo delle Nazioni Unite, descrive con chiarezza come la comunità internazionale abbia tratteggiato i concetti di vittima e di sfruttatore. Nonostante lo sforzo definitorio del Protocollo, questo articolo evidenzia una zona grigia nella relazione fra vulnerabilità e violenza di prossimità che rende possibile lo sfruttamento consensuale della vittima da parte del trafficante e la stessa difficoltà a delimitarne i contorni nelle aule di giustizia. L’articolo analizza il concetto di vulnerabilità, in relazione con quello di violenza di prossimità, e sviluppando in una specifica accezione di “vulnerabilità prossimale” che si rende e…

The Slow Violence of Deportability
2020
In 2015, Finland, like other European countries, received an unprecedented number of asylum seekers. Later, in the aftermath of what we prefer to call the ‘refugee reception crisis’, the deportation of those who had received negative asylum decisions began. The Finnish Immigration Service significantly tightened its policies after 2015. Increasingly strict asylum criteria have resulted in deportations at a level never seen before. Furthermore, protests against deportations have increased and become publicly salient. In this chapter we theorize deportation as a form of slow violence that hurts not only its main target but also people nearby. While a forced removal can be seen as a single, po…
Cultural Adaptation of the Modified Version of the Conflicts Tactics Scale (M-CTS) in Mexican Adolescents
2019
Several scales are used in Dating Violence studies assuming cross-cultural invariance and equivalence of the measures without making the proper validation in the intended populations. This study focuses on the importance of adapting existing dating violence psychological instruments (as the widely recognized Modified Version of the Conflict Tactics Scale, M-CTS) in diverse adolescent populations adjusting to international validation procedures that ensure the cultural fit of the instrument and the measurement invariance of the construct. We sought to adapt the M-CTS in Mexican adolescents (N = 1861; 57.5% woman) following the ITC Guidelines for Translating and Adapting Test. We made an anal…
Discussions of Fatherhood in Male Batterer Treatment Group
2013
The aim of this study was to examine how men who have perpetrated violence toward their partners and participated in batterer group talked about being a father and how they perceived their own fatherhood.

This new fatherhood was considered an achieved goal and an objective for the men as being a father. Talking about fath…
