Complying With the First Law of Robotics: An Analysis of the Occupational Risks Associated With Work Directed by an Algorithm/Artificial Intelligence

2020

It is increasingly common for companies to use artificial intelligence mechanisms, which may be more or less advanced, to manage work, that is, to establish work shifts and production times, design and allocate tasks for workers, recruit workers, evaluate performance and dismiss employees. Companies rely on technology to gather all the information available, process it and make the management decisions (productivity optimisation) that will benefit them the most. This replaces human supervisors and middle managers, as well as experts in human resources, leaving the management of workers in the hands of automated processes directed by algorithms – or in its most advanced stage, to be undertak…

The good, the bad and the ugly: images of the foreigner in contemporary criminal law

2018

Since the end of the Second World War, the criminal law of Western states has tried to legitimate itself, in basically democratic-republican terms, as primarily addressed towards citizens. During approximately the last 20 years, however, new dimensions of criminal law have emerged, which refer paradigmatically (not to the citizen, but) to the foreigner and subject him/her to worse legal treatment than that which is considered legitimate when either citizens or ‘good’ foreigners are concerned. Next to the ideal-type of the citizen criminal law (also applicable, by assimilation, to the ‘good’ foreigner) a criminal law for ‘ugly’ mass-foreigners (crimmigration) and one for ‘bad’ foreigners (en…

Inversión educativa y contracción del Estado del Bienestar : un análisis del contexto autonómico tras la crisis sistémica de 2008

2018

En España, el estallido de la crisis sistémica de 2008 y su prolongada duración han supuesto desafíos adicionales para el mantenimiento del Estado del Bienestar y, particularmente, para la educación, el Servicio Público Fundamental que más afectado se ha visto por la aplicación de políticas de contracción presupuestaria durante este período. El presente trabajo explora cómo se ha comportado la inversión educativa en las distintas regiones españolas a lo largo de los últimos años, y trata de conocer más acerca del papel que han jugado las distintas administraciones en la asignación de recursos a esta partida. Para ello, esta investigación ha conformado dos bloques de CC.AA. de acuerdo con la…

L'espulsione del migrante e la "materia penale" tra prevenzione e repressione

2018

A partire dalla constatazione delle molteplici forme che la misura dell'espulsione dello straniero assume nell'ordinamento italiano e collocandosi nella prospettiva - oramai acquisita da gran parte della cultura penalistica - del definitivo superamento di una visione strettamente formalistica di materia penale, il contributo analizza in chiave critica la misura in oggetto, sottoponendola la banco di prova dei criteri impiegati tanto in dottrina, quanto dalla giurisprudenza della costituzionale e della corte Edu per determinare la natura “punitiva” o non “punitiva” di uno strumento afflittivo. Il fine dell'indagine è dii soppesare significati e finalità dell'espulsione sia rispetto alla nozi…

I delitti di inquinamento ambientale e di disastro ambientale in una recente proposta di riforma del legislatore italiano.

2015

Abstract The reform concerning “ecocrimes” recently approved by the Parliament impressed a significant change to environmental criminal law in Italy. Amongst the most important novelties introduced by the reform, this paper considers the criminal offences of “Inquinamento ambientale” (environmental pollution) and of “Disastro ambientale” (environmental disaster), which are paradigmatic examples of the legislator’s attempt to balance the criminal-political needs for repressing the most serious forms of aggression against environment with the need for adopting a legislative technique of description of the offences coherent with the peculiarities of the protected legal good and with the modali…

Profili penali e problemi politico-criminali dell'intervento multilivello sugli stupefacenti

2014

l contributo esamina alcuni problemi di fondo connessi all’intervento penalistico in materia di stupefacenti, assumendolo quale settore esemplare per indicare la complessità del diritto penale moderno. In particolare, si segnala tanto la difficoltà di ricostruire la prevenzione del relativo fenomeno sociale come affidato a strumenti omogenei, quanto la crisi del ruolo di extrema ratio del diritto penale all’interno di tale articolata serie di interventi. Le principali vicende italiane sulle fondamentali opzioni in materia sono quindi collocate nello scenario internazionale, che condiziona i sistemi giuridici statuali ad una strategia differenziata rispetto ai due versanti del traffico illec…

Psychological adjustment and victim-blaming among intimate partner violence offenders: The role of social support and stressful life events

2013

AbstractIntimate partner violence offenders often use victim-blaming attributions to explain their own violent behavior. These attributions represent an important challenge for intervention programs for intimatepartner violence offenders. The main objectives of this study were to analyze both the influence of social support and stressful life events on the psychological adjustment (self-esteem and depressive symptomatology) of intimate partner violence offenders and the relationship between offenders’ psychological adjustment and their victim-blaming attributions. The sample consists of 314 men convicted of intimate partner violence who were referred to a community-based intervention progra…

“Serpentone Reload” an Experience of Citizens Involvement in Regeneration of Peripheral Urban Spaces

2015

Suburbs are often very contradictory places. Despite great part of urban population live there, these parts of cities are mostly considered as degradation places. The topic of suburbs regeneration is relevant today. Nevertheless, often expensive interventions implemented by local authorities fail to regenerate their public spaces. This paper presents the experience of “Serpentone reload”, a workshop based on participatory reactivation of abandoned or underused spaces and buildings in “Cocuzzo/Serpentone” neighbourhood in Potenza (Basilicata, Italy). The workshop particularly focused on the reuse of the “Ship”, an underground building, completed in 2010, never used, because it has been perce…

Sulle tracce della crimmigration in Europa: l'espulsione dello straniero in un confronto fra Spagna, Italia e Francia

2019

Seguendo le linee di tendenza emerse con riguardoall’ordinamento italiano, il saggio analizza in chiave comparata la legislazione spagnola e francese in materia di espulsione dello straniero ed evidenzia anche le normative straniere esaminate, al pari di quella italiana, attribuiscano a tale misura una natura proteiforme, che sembra pensata ad hoc per generare discutibili forme di ibridazione tra le funzioni proprie della “moderna” espulsione-amministrativa quale strumento di gestione del fenomeno. migratorio e le funzioni punitivo/sanzionatorie del modello “classico” di espulsione-sanzione penale destinato a colpire lo straniero divenuto “indesiderato”, in quanto reo. Se ne ricava la confe…
