Vittorio Emanuele Orlando. Il giurista, l’avvocato, lo statista
2018
Vittorio Emanuele Orlando is one of the defining figures of the history of Italy. Lawyer, jurist and statesman, he founded the Italian School of Public Law and worked out an original version of the “Rechtsstaat”. He led Italy to victory during the First World War, took then an official stance against the Fascism and played a significant role in the republican constituent process. The article suggests a coherent interpretation of the several aspects of his personality and provides an extensive bibliography
L'ordine, dal centro ai margini: a proposito della ripubblicazione di due testi di Costantino Mortati
2022
In questo articolo, offro una ricostruzione della concezione dell’ordinamento giuridico, dello sta- to e della costituzione materiale di Costantino Mortati, mostrando la evoluzione da essa subita nel corso degli anni. Mi soffermo in particolare su due aspetti: sulla natura di “fatto normativo” della volontà delle forze politiche dominanti che, secondo Mortati, sostiene la costituzione ma- teriale dello stato; e sul modo in cui Mortati applica la sua concezione alla fase di formazione e di mutamento della costituzione materiale, e ai periodi di indebolimento dell’unità politica. In this article I propose a reconstruction of Costantino Mortati’s view of the legal order, the state and the mate…
Desobediencia civil y participación política. Unas cuestiones abiertas para las democracias constitucionales (y la teoría del derecho)
2015
In this article I try to show some problems of the interpretation of civil disobedience as a practice that aims to maintain democratic principles against discriminative legal patterns or oligarchic forces. I will present two doctrines, the Rawlsian (followed by Habermas) and the one proposed recently by supporters of a radical constitutional change through the exercise of “constituent power”. The Rawlsian account a) offers a too stringent model of justification of this type of practice and b) does not recognize the plurality of subjects to which civil disobedience appeal. The supporters of radical constitutional change fall into a form of heterogony of ends. They reject liberal accounts of …
Algebraic aspects and coherence conditions for conjunctions among conditional events
2018
We deepen the study of a notion of conjunction among conditional events, introduced in previous papers in theframework of coherence. This notion of conjunction, differently from other approaches, is given in the setting ofconditional random quantities. We show that some well known properties which are satisfied by conjunctionsof unconditional events are also satisfied by conjunctions of conditional events. In particular we examine anadditive property and a decomposition formula, by also obtaining a generalized inclusion-exclusion formula. Then,by exploiting the notion of conjunction, we introduce the set of constituents generated bynconditional events.Moreover, under logical independence, w…
The first example of natural cyclic carbonate in terpenoids
2006
Abstract The first natural occurring cyclic carbonate terpenoid, the guaianolide hololeucin ( 1 ), was isolated from the aerial part of Centaurea hololeuca . Its structure was elucidated on the basis of extensive proton, 13 C and two-dimensional NMR experiments, as well as by transformation in its diacetyl derivative.
A New Algorithm for the Retrieval of Sun Induced Chlorophyll Fluorescence of Water Bodies Exploiting the Detailed Spectral Shape of Water-Leaving Rad…
2021
Sun induced chlorophyll fluorescence (SICF) emitted by phytoplankton provides considerable insights into the vital role of the carbon productivity of the earth’s aquatic ecosystems. However, the SICF signal leaving a water body is highly affected by the high spectral variability of its optically active constituents. To disentangle the SICF emission from the water-leaving radiance, a new high spectral resolution retrieval algorithm is presented, which significantly improves the fluorescence line height (FLH) method commonly used so far. The proposed algorithm retrieves the reflectance without SICF contribution by the extrapolation of the reflectance from the adjacent regions. Then, the SICF …
The ambiguities of "granted constitutionalism" : a transatlantic debate (III)
2018
Our journey ends in Brazil. According to textbooks of constitutional history, this "periphery" country, recently independent, looked with envy at the European and North American constitutional novelties, not without trying to maintain its identity. Olhos na Europa, pés na América? Doubtless ; still it is necessary to measure the extent of this "Europe", admired in space as in time. The doctrine, criticizing the granted Constitution of 1824, qualified of nominal, had too long hid the reality, even the efficiency, of a constitutionalism in singular outlines, which involves both social and institutional engineering, thus not reducible to the modern constitutionalism. The political actors of Br…
Chemical constituents from Phlomis bovei Noë and their chemotaxonomic significance
2020
Abstract A phytochemical investigation of the leaves and roots of Phlomis bovei Noe (Lamiaceae) led to the isolation of sixteen compounds, including iridoids (1, 2, 3), megastigmanes (4, 5), phenylpropanoids (6, 7, 8, 9, 10), lignans (11, 12, 13, 14), a nortriterpene (15), and a phenyl glucoside (16). Compounds (1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 10) were obtained from the leaves and compounds (1, 2, 3, 7, 8, 9, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16) were isolated from the roots. Compounds 1 and 2 were found both in the leaves and in roots. The compounds were identified by analysis of 1D- (1H, 13C), 2D-NMR (1H–1H COSY, TOCSY, ROESY, HSQC, HMBC) spectroscopic data, mass spectrometry (ESI- and HR-ESI-MS), and by comparison wit…
Measurement of haemodynamics of exercising and non-exercising vastus lateralis muscle with hybrid diffuse optics
2016
We present simultaneous diffuse correlation spectroscopy (DCS) and time resolved spectroscopy (TR NIRS) measurements on exercising and non-exercising vastus lateralis muscle. We discuss the results at two different exercise levels.
On Language Adequacy
2015
Abstract The paper concentrates on the problem of adequate reflection of fragments of reality via expressions of language and inter-subjective knowledge about these fragments, called here, in brief, language adequacy. This problem is formulated in several aspects, the most general one being: the compatibility of the language syntax with its bi-level semantics: intensional and extensional. In this paper, various aspects of language adequacy find their logical explication on the ground of the formal-logical theory of syntax T of any categorial language L generated by the so-called classical categorial grammar, and also on the ground of its extension to the bi-level, intensional and ex- tensio…
