La giuridicità del diritto di resistenza nello Stato costituzional-democratico: una proposta teorica
Il presente lavoro intende indagare i profili di giuridicità del diritto di resistenza come un “diritto giuridico” e una pratica costituzionale giustificabile sul terreno normativo. L’ambito della ricerca è circoscritto agli ordinamenti costituzional-democratici. L’obiettivo finale è mostrare che alcuni casi di “resistenza” dovrebbero essere protetti dalla costituzione ed esentati parzialmente o totalmente dalla punizione prevista per la trasgressione della norma giuridica resistita. È questo il caso di “resistenza costituzionale” e “disobbedienza civile”. Tuttavia, le definizioni di questo tipo di atteggiamenti nei confronti del diritto rimangono generalmente vaghe anche nella letteratura …
L'esercizio del potere tra consenso e opposizione nella Sicilia del XIV secolo: il caso dei signori di Sciacca
2021
Il saggio delinea le strategie utilizzate dai Peralta, signori di Sciacca, nell’esercizio e nella gestione del potere, mettendo in luce le forme di consenso che questo generò. Ambito privilegiato di indagine è la corte dei Peralta e le famiglie che seguirono i conti nella ribellione e nella riconciliazione con la Corona, quelle che trassero vantaggi dalla familiarità con i vicari e quelle che, per la loro opposizione, furono ricompensate solo alla morte di Nicola. I riflessi del ruolo assunto dal conte di Caltabellotta sono evidenti anche nell’opera del ministro dei Minori in Sicilia Andrea de Pace di Sciacca che, alla fine del XIV secolo, dedicò il suo Viridarium principum proprio a Nicola…
Potere signorile, consenso, dissenso e controllo del territorio nella Sicilia del Trecento: l’esempio dei Chiaromonte
2021
The essay analyses the reasons why the governments created by Chiaromonte family in the cities of eastern Sicily failed, and investigates the cause of their success in the long lasting urban signorie of western Sicily. To create consensus, they had to ensure the supply of grain for the population, to defend the territory from external attacks, and to maintain public order. In addition to military prowess, they used their speaking skills to influence citizens and showed a magnificent lifestyle by building imposing palaces, celebrating sumptuous weddings and funerals, and commissioning works of art. They created spy networks and used violent methods to repress dissent (imprisonment, torture, …

I ‘graffi’ della protesta. Street art, barriere artificiali e forme di espressione del dissenso
2013
Street art is any art – specifically visual art – developed in public spaces. It can include traditional graffiti artwork, stencil, sculpture, sticker art, street poster art, video projection, guerrilla art, flash mobbing, wheatpasting, etc. Typically, the term is used to refer to unsanctioned or “prohibited” art, as opposed to institutional artistic initiatives. So, is it possible to speak about street art as a form of protest art? If so, what are the signs, texts, codes and practices through which graffiti, stencils and other forms of street art can serve as means to express opposition and dissent? The present paper aims at answering these questions at first through a general historic int…
Exploring organizational dissent in a global setting
2018
The current research project focuses on a distinctive form of employee voice: organizational dissent. Dissent is the key to correcting organizational misconduct, facilitating group innovation and enhancing both employee satisfaction and organizational performance. Although organizational dissent has garnered substantial scholarly attention over the last two decades, most of these studies were developed in and for the domestic US environment; little is known about how dissent is conceptualized, expressed and received in a different cultural setting. This dissertation aims to complement previous research by investigating the relationship between organizational dissent and workplace freedom of…
Surveillance and student dissent: the case of the Franco dictatorship.
2014
The rising of a powerful democratic student movement in Spain in the sixties represented a substantial stimulus to the repressive modernization of the Franco dictatorship. New containment strategies were adopted in the context of the counter-subversion and intelligence policies that the USA administration and their allies were also implementing. From this assumption, this paper analyzes the specific dynamics of surveillance on student protest, exploring the previous situation at university, the challenges introduced by the youth upheaval, the diverse responses of the establishment, the role of the American aid, and finally the consequences both for the dissidents and for the dictatorship it…
The Translation of Sex-Related Language: The Danger(s) of Self-Censorship(s)1
2009
While censorship is an external constraint on what we can publish or (re)write, self-censorship is an individual ethical struggle between self and context. In all historical circumstances, translators tend to produce rewritings which are ‘acceptable’ from both social and personal perspectives. The translation of swearwords and sex-related language is a case in point, which very often depends on historical and political circumstances, and is also an area of personal struggle, of ethical/moral dissent, of religious/ideological controversies. In this paper we analyse the translation of the lexeme fuck into Spanish and Catalan. We have chosen two novels by Helen Fielding—Bridget Jones’s Diary (…
Accuracy, Coherence, and Discrepancy in Self and Other Reports: Moving Toward an Interactive Perspective of Organizational Dissent.
2013
The purpose of this study was twofold and involved examining the viability of using the Organizational Dissent Scale as an other-report instrument, and developing additional perceptual data related to dissent expression. A sample of 291 people completed survey questionnaire measures of organizational dissent. Equal-sized groups ( n = 97) completed either a self-report, a workplace colleague other-report, or an organizational outsider other-report. Results indicated the Organizational Dissent Scale performed reliably as an other-report, but it showed some tendency for social desirability. In addition, findings suggested that certain indicators of proximity to the dissenter reduced discrepan…
