La violència física i econòmica contra les dones a la Mallorca del segle XVII : una aproximació
2020
Resum: En aquesta primera aproximació a la Mallorca del segle XVII, es pot veure com les dones patien diferents tipus de violència. Per una banda, la física, que era exercida tant per part de desconeguts com per part dels marits dins de l’entorn conjugal. La fugida de la maltractada era la solució més habitual i, en moltes ocasions, la disputa acaba amb divorci. per altra banda, s’ha documentat l’existència d’una violència que es pot denominar econòmica i que es basa en l’exclusió de la dona de les seves pròpies possessions, cosa que conduïa a llargs litigis per a la restitució dotal o per a reclamar una herència. Generalment, aquesta violència es donava quan les dones quedaven soles i en s…
How urban characteristics affect vulnerability to heat and cold: a multi-country analysis
2019
Background The health burden associated with temperature is expected to increase due to a warming climate. Populations living in cities are likely to be particularly at risk, but the role of urban characteristics in modifying the direct effects of temperature on health is still unclear. In this contribution, we used a multi-country dataset to study effect modification of temperature–mortality relationships by a range of city-specific indicators. Methods We collected ambient temperature and mortality daily time-series data for 340 cities in 22 countries, in periods between 1985 and 2014. Standardized measures of demographic, socio-economic, infrastructural and environmental indicators were d…
Io puro, io reale e storicità immanente del soggetto. A partire dal Bleistiftmanuskript (1912) di Husserl
2020
Il cosiddetto Bleistiftmanuskript (Manoscritto a matita), risalente al periodo tra ottobre e dicembre 1912, è uno dei tre testi originari (Urtexte) da cui è stata elaborata la nuova edizione critica di Idee II di Edmund Husserl. Il manoscritto ci pone di fronte al problema del rapporto tra l'Io puro e l’oscurità della coscienza. L'articolo ricostruisce questo rapporto, interpretandolo come una dinamica tra ‘compimento d’atto’ (Aktvollzug) ed ‘estraneazione’ (Entfremdung) e cercando di dare un resoconto dello stato effettivo del sé nel suo rapporto con le cose materiali e con il corpo. In fase conclusiva, l’articolo intende far emergere anche la nozione fenomenologica di una specifica ‘vulne…
Application of SINTACS method to the aquifers of Piana di Palermo, Siciliy,Italy
2004
Piana di Palermo is characterized by the presence of two different aquifers: one shallow, constituted by calcarenites and the other deep in fractured carbonates. The calcarenitic aquifer presents a low potential compared to the carbonatic aquifer. The chemistry of the water in both aquifers reflects water-rock interaction, seawater intrusion, ionic exchange etc. The application of SINTACS method showed that about 80% of the study area can be classified as of high to very high vulnerability. Piana di Palermo es caracterizada por la presencia de dos acuíferos diferentes: uno somero constituido por calcarenitas y otro profundo en rocas carbonatadas fracturadas. El acuífero calcarenítico presen…

Intersecting vulnerabilities in professionals and patients in intensive care.
2017
International audience; In the context of healthcare delivery, the vulnerabilities of patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) are intricately linked with those experienced on a daily basis by caregivers in the ICU in a symbiotic relation, whereby patients who are suffering can in turn engender suffering in the caregivers. In the same way, caregivers who are suffering themselves may be a source of suffering for their patients. The vulnerabilities of both patients and caregivers in the ICU are simultaneously constituted through a process that is influenced on the one hand by the healthcare objectives of the ICU, and on the other hand, by the conformity of the patients who are managed in tha…
