Necesario, pero no deseado. Las advertencias de Thomas Hobbes sobre los peligros de la multitud, el populismo y la democracia

2016

The purpose of this article is to analyse Hobbes’s understanding of democracy. The first part of the article analyses the role of democracy in the social contract. It aims to show how there exists a democratic element at the beginning of the process of social contract, in which the multitude is transformed into a people. However, after the first social contract is made, Hobbes aims to reduce the power of the people by leading the process of social contract on to another level, on which the power of the people is assigned to a representative of the sovereign power, for example a monarch. The second part of the article aims to explain the practical reasons, provided by Hobbes in different par…

Dobra zmiana? Prawa człowieka w Izraelu i na Palestyńskich Terytoriach Okupowanych

2016

Celem tekstu jest analiza przemian w sferze obrony praw człowieka w Izraelu i na Palestyńskich Terytoriach Okupowanych. Rozdział rozpoczyna się od zarysowania zjawiska, jakie niektórzy komentatorzy określają mianem „putinizacji" Izraela. Następnie omawia się dławienie pokojowego oporu wobec okupacji ziem palestyńskich. Kolejny podrozdział skupia się na kryminalizacji działań obrońców praw człowieka. Ostatnia część dotyczy traktowania niektórych Izraelczyków jako wrogów swego narodu. W podsumowaniu zwraca się uwagę na negatywne czynniki, które osłabiają demokrację w Izraelu.

Spór o wybory powszechne na stanowiska sędziowskie w amerykańskim dyskursie publicznym w okresie „demokracji jacksonowskiej”

2021

Artykuł przedstawia debatę, jaka odbyła się pomiędzy zwolennikami i przeciwnikami obsadza-nia stanowisk sędziowskich w drodze wyborów powszechnych w Stanach Zjednoczonych w okre-sie tzw. „demokracji jakcsonowskiej” (zwaną także populistyczną) od początku lat trzydziestych XIX wieku do wybuchu wojny secesyjnej. Począwszy od prezydentury Andrew Jacksona nasiliła się w USA walka polityczna pomiędzy ludem reprezentowanym przez Partię Demokratyczną a eli-tami, których interesów broniła Partia Wigów. Przedmiotem sporu stało się żądanie szerszego do-puszczenia ludu do sprawowania władzy oraz demokratyzacja dotychczasowej oligarchicznej re-publiki poprzez rozszerzenie praw wyborczych oraz wyborów p…

Is Democracy Exportable?

2017

Among many aspects to the question of whether democracy is exportable, this contribution focuses on the role of the people, understood not as a unitary actor but as a heterogeneous set: the citizens. The people matter, in a different way, both in the countries to which democracy might be exported and in the democratic countries in which the question is about promoting democracy elsewhere. The mechanisms or characteristics involved in the discussion include yardstick competition, differences among citizens in the intensity of their preferences, differences among autocracies regarding intrusion into private life, citizens’ assessments of future regime change, and responsiveness of elected inc…

L’injonction participative au débat environnemental en ligne : Imaginaires d’Internet, démocratie environnementale et communication engageante

2013

What communication devices could be used to mobilize and assist citizens in eco-friendly consumption? How users will appropriate these devices and thus will participate to public discussions? Based on these functionalist issues, which are the core of an action research that we ‘re leading, we propose a critic study of participatory injunction. This injunction deals with Internet imaginary and sustainable development precepts.

Ympäristönsuojelulaki vuotaa: turvekiista tunnustuskamppailuna

2023

Tutkimme Keski-Suomessa pitkään jatkunutta turvekiistaa selvittämällä kyselyllä ja haastatteluilla kansalaisten käsityksiä turvetuotannosta ja sen vesistövaikutuksista. Tutkimuksemme osoittaa, että poliittis-hallinnollinen järjestelmä ei ole kyennyt täyttämään ympäristönsuojelulain tavoitetta turvata kansalaisille terveellinen ja viihtyisä ympäristö ja parantaa kansalaisten mahdollisuuksia vaikuttaa ympäristöä koskevaan päätöksentekoon. Lailla ei ole edellytyksiä säännellä kaikkia niitä luontoa hyödyntäviä toimintoja, joiden kansalaiset kokevat saastuttavan vesiympäristöään. Tämä puute näkyy esimerkiksi turpeennoston kaltaisissa toiminnoissa, jotka aiheuttavat vesistöjen hajakuormitusta eri…

La necesaria rehabilitación del sistema representativo en las propuestas de reforma democrática

2010

In the debates on deliberative democracy it’s a common idea that the defenders of this theory argue for the direct participation of the citizens in the political issues and for the transformation of our current representative devices. However, in this work I argue that this conception is misguided, and that it’s the minority who defends the direct participation. The majority of the writers acknowledges the necessity of a representative device, although based on different premises to the liberal system. The deliberative democracy supports a responsible and compromised citizenship, against the model of self interested citizenship.<br><br>En los debates sobre la democracia delibera…

Aldo Capitini e la riforma della scuola pubblica nell’Italia degli anni Sessanta

2018

Questo articolo ricostruisce gli anni della militanza del pedagogista italiano Aldo Capitini nell’ADESSPI (Associazione per la Difesa e per lo sviluppo della Scuola Pubblica). Dall’esame di diverse fonti, quali opere dell’autore (carteggi, dispense dei corsi universitari, volumi, articoli), pubblicazioni ministeriali, letteratura critica, ma anche pubblicazioni dell’associazione e degli altri soci dell’ADESSPI, è emerso il ruolo di primo piano che Capitini svolse all’interno del movimento di riforma della scuola italiana degli anni Sessanta, impegnandosi in prima persona nella progettazione e nella stesura delle sue linee programmatiche. I temi a cui egli dedicò maggiormente la sua militanz…

Giuseppe Cocchiara, il fascismo e il razzismo

2021

In questo saggio viene ricostruito il rapporto tra Giuseppe Cocchiara e il fascismo. L’antropologo visse in pieno la sua formazione culturale all'interno del regime al quale aderì con convinzione e slancio, militando sempre nelle sue fazioni più radicali, condividendone fedelmente le scelte più tragiche come la guerra d’Etiopia, sottoscrivendo le leggi razziali, impegnandosi nella seconda guerra mondiale con le armi culturali dell’antisemitismo e della lotta senza tregua contro la democrazia. Così quando, come in un «mondo alla rovescia», sconfitto il fascismo sotto il peso di un’umiliante e sanguinosa disfatta, saranno proprio gli odiati inglesi a valorizzarne la statura intellettuale e la…

Yes when as in a "world upside down" having defeated fascism under the weight of a humiliating and bloody defeat it will be precisely the hated English who will enhance his intellectual stature and the new democratic Italy to allow him to have an irresistible academic rise and scientific.Settore M-STO/04 - Storia ContemporaneaSettore M-DEA/01 - Discipline DemoetnoantropologicheIn this essay the relationship between Giuseppe Cocchiara and fascism is reconstructed.
