Percorsi della devianza e della diversità. Dall'"uomo atavico" al "senza permesso di soggiorno"

2007

Il volume, oltre a tracciare l’evoluzione dei concetti riconducibili all’ampia fenomenologia delle condotte devianti, ne rintraccia ed evidenzia i processi culturali e sociali che vi fanno da sfondo. Costituendosi come un articolata ed approfondita riflessione sulle teorie dell'agire sociale e sui i modi con cui si determinano le relazioni, il volume si sofferma sulle strategie argomentative e i processi interpretativi con cui i “devianti” – gli stranieri, i “senza fissa dimora”, i “diversi”, i “disoccupati” – costituendo proiettivamente una minaccia all’ordine sociale, sono stati nel tempo individuati, etichettati ed emarginati dalle istituzioni. Ogni capitolo è correlato, oltre che da una…

Between-group competition and human cooperation.

2008

A distinctive feature of human behaviour is the widespread occurrence of cooperation among unrelated individuals. Explaining the maintenance of costly within-group cooperation is a challenge because the incentive to free ride on the efforts of other group members is expected to lead to decay of cooperation. However, the costs of cooperation can be diminished or overcome when there is competition at a higher level of organizational hierarchy. Here we show that competition between groups resolves the paradigmatic ‘public goods’ social dilemma and increases within-group cooperation and overall productivity. Further, group competition intensifies the moral emotions of anger and guilt associated…

Cultural similarity and dissimilarity in intercultural conflicts

2015

40 notas sobre la sociedad de riesgo, fase senil del capitalismo

2002

Si la sociedad del riesgo es la fase senil del capitalismo, entonces la comprensión de los peligros medioambientales que se autoincrementan como una coacción del espacio social (que se puede relacionar con la necesidad de la producción de extraer minusvalor del proceso productivo, esto es, que se puede representar como una fase superior de la coacción del tiempo social, relacionado con la generación de plusvalor) aproxima de modo esencial los movimientos sociales emancipatorios tradicionales, como el sindicalismo, a los denominados nuevos movimientos sociales, como el ecologismo.

Attitudes : Tendencies and Variations

2018

This chapter presents an overview of religiosity and attitudes to religious diversity in media and other public spaces based on a cross-Scandinavian survey conducted in 2015. Although Scandinavians in general have a weak personal connection to religion, Christianity still holds a privileged position as an expression of cultural identity. Scandinavians express support for equal rights to practice religion, but also doubtfulness towards public expressions of religion. More than one-fourth of respondents discuss news about religion and religious extremism regularly. There is a widespread sentiment that Islam is a threat to the national culture, even though most respondents state that they oppo…

IPE scholarship about Southeast Asia : Theories of development and state-market-society relations

2020

Contemporary Southeast Asia is a diverse region that is fully integrated into the world economy. Its eleven constituent countries are distinct with unique historical, political, economic, and cultural configurations – as such, they develop unevenly within, and respond accordingly to, the evolution of the global capitalist system. This chapter provides a survey of literatures, themes and debates that have significantly contributed to the study of Southeast Asia from the discipline of international political economy (IPE). It shows how specific IPE scholarship about Southeast Asia since the 1950s have been framed within the general theories of development (i.e., modernization and dependency) …
