The territorial dimension in the EU programming and the New Framework for Public Policies: Territorial Tural Development, CAP Reform and new LEADER
2012
Lo que venimos denominando como perspectiva territorial del desarrollo es un fenómeno bastante reciente en el contexto de la Unión Europea, de apenas dos décadas. En esencia esta perspectiva territorial del desarrollo se ha centrado en un enfoque local de los procesos de desarrollo en las áreas rurales, de la mano, principalmente, de instrumentos como LEADER. La necesidad de incorporar la dimensión territorial a los procesos de desarrollo proviene no solo del éxito global de estos instrumentos, sino también por el convencimiento de que puede constituir un elemento fundamental de cara a la cohesión económica y social en el seno de la UE. Avances recientes, como el Libro Verde de la Cohesión …
Miejskie obszary funkcjonalne a kształtowanie spójności terytorialnej
2017
Bieżąca polityka regionalna ma za zadanie kształtować spójność terytorialną, a jedną z jej koncepcji jest funkcjonowanie miejskich obszarów funkcjonalnych. Spójność terytorialna rozumiana jest różnorako. W niniejszym opracowaniu rozpatrywano ją jako: rozwój endogeniczny i policentryczny, wyrównywanie dysproporcji w poziomie rozwoju społeczno-gospodarczego, tworzenie powiązań sieciowych oraz zapewnienie dostępności do usług (głównie wiedzy i infrastruktury). Celem badań jest określenie związku między isto - tą i praktyką miejskich obszarów funkcjonalnych a kształtowaniem tak pojmowanej spójno - ści terytorialnej. Badania przeprowadzono w układzie regionalnym, na podstawie miejskich obszarów …

An Examination of the Relationship Between Coaches’ Transformational Leadership and Athletes’ Personal and Group Characteristics in Elite Youth Soccer
2021
There is a growing body of the literature highlighting the positive impact of transformational leadership behaviours across contexts, including sport. However, there is a lack of knowledge of this relationship within elite sport settings. Thus, the purpose of the present study was to examine the relationship between elite youth athletes’ perceptions of coaches’ transformational coaching-behaviours and variables that have been linked to transformational leadership in other settings (i.e., group cohesion, motivational climate, self-regulation of learning and athlete satisfaction). Norwegian elite youth soccer players (n= 753) selected into the national talent development program completed que…
Trends analysis in the investigations realised from the data of the PISA Project
2016
Este estudio es parte de una investigación más amplia que pretende diseñar un modelo de análisis de evaluaciones de sistemas educativos que permita valorar su aportación para la cohesión social (Jornet, 2012). El punto de partida son investigaciones previas sobre el papel de las variables de contexto, de entrada y de proceso en las evaluaciones de sistemas educativos, que frecuentemente cuidan mucho más la justificación teórica y la calidad métrica de las variables de producto que estas otras, que finalmente ayudan a interpretar los resultados. En este caso realizamos revisión de los trabajos científico-académicos del corte empírico, publicados entre los años 2000 y 2012, que utilizan bases…
Capitalismo e coesione sociale. Qualche considerazione sul ruolo attuale della sociologia
2015
Negli ultimi venti anni, grazie al predominio dell’ideologia della globalizzazione e dell’impresa globalizzata, imposto dai think thank del liberismo internazionale, e forse anche ad una eccessiva specializzazione delle scienze sociali, il tema delle disuguaglianze crescenti determinate dal modo di produzione capitalistico, e quello correlato dell’integrazione sociale e della coesione sociale all’interno dell’economia capitalistica, sono rimasti nella penombra dell’analisi delle scienze sociali e della sociologia (Bowles, 2009), in Italia (Gallino, 2012) più che in altri paesi, dove al contrario si assiste da molti anni ad una crescente attenzione nei confronti delle trasformazioni del capi…
EDM and Ecstasy: the lived experiences of electronic dance music festival attendees
2017
Attendance at large-scale music festivals has captivated a global interest in these spectacular experiences, yet little is known about the lasting benefits and personal changes individuals incur following this event. This study aims to provide a comprehensive exploration of the lived experiences of individuals who attended a multi-day electronic dance music festival. The present study was primarily interested in the perceived beneficial changes within the individual, following their festival experience. We investigated if first-time festival attendees perceived changes differed to those of returning individuals. Semi-structured qualitative interviews were used to collect data from 12 indivi…
Judo as a tool for social integration in adolescents at risk of social exclusion: A pilot study
2020
Purpose: Social policies of the advanced countries have begun to incorporate sport to speak on manifestations of social exclusion, as tool to reach out to young people, strengthen their identity or enhance self-esteem vulnerable groups.

The aim of this study is to analyse the incidence of judo practice in changing attitudes, values, norms and capabilities across organizational forms as a means of enhancing socialization in their interventions with young people at risk of social exclusion. Material/Methods: We used…
Les coopérations de proximité dans l'Arc jurassien franco-suisse : Un enjeu de la cohésion sociale transfrontalière
2017
Un certain nombre de coopérations s’établissent plus ou moins spontanément de part et d’autre de la frontière franco-suisse dans l’Arc jurassien. En général de petite taille, visibles ou non aux échelles locales, elles présentent, selon nous, un grand intérêt dans le cadre de la mise en place d’un sentiment communautaire dans l’Arc jurassien. En effet, le devenir de cet espace transfrontalier doit s’ancrer dans le partage des valeurs des deux pays frontaliers afin d’endiguer les risques de repli identitaire. Dans sa stratégie de coopération transfrontalière 2016-2020, la Conférence Transjurassienne (CTJ) propose de promouvoir le sentiment d’une communauté de destin (CTJ, 2015), thématique é…
