L'alimentation carnée à Aventicum/Avenches capitale des Helvètes (Ier s. - IVe s. apr. J.-C.) Suisse, canton de Vaud
2010
This first synthesis concerns the animal bones, discovered since 1975 in Aventicum, the capital of Roman Switzerland. It is supported by the analysis of several residential districts, public sectors and suburbs, which represent five hundred chronological complexes and 74000 animal bones, dated from the Ist, to the IVth Century AD. During these centuries, Aventicum was incorporated to the Roman province of Gallia Belgica, then was raised to the status of a colonia and finally declined with the Empire.The analysis of bones was made to study various mutations which occurred during the occupation of the city. They include an improvement of breeding techniques, a new internal city organisation, …
Il ruolo delle filiere nell’industria italiana: un legame stabile tra il Nord-Ovest e il Meridione
2014
Lo studio si propone di esaminare la relazione dei distretti industriali, del ruolo delle medio-grandi imprese e dell’appartenenza alla macro-area territoriale della “virgola di ponente” con l’inefficienza tecnica attraverso la stima delle frontiere stocastiche di produzione a livello di settori produttivi manifatturieri e dei settori della meccanica nelle differenti regioni italiane nel periodo 2008-2010, utilizzando dati ISTAT. I distretti industriali e la loro evoluzione sono alla base delle considerazioni per un nuovo sistema produttivo. Il sistema basato sulle PMI ha mostrato la sua vulnerabilità e limitatezza in un mercato ormai globale. La trasformazione in impresa-rete per lo svilup…
The technological evolution of the Castellón ceramic tile district: the contribution of the frit, glaze and colour industry
2008
[EN]: The industrial district of Castellón is characterized by a great dynamism based on technological innovation, both product and process, the origins of which are to be found on its providers, the machinery industry and the frit, glaze and colours industry. In this paper the current situation of the frit, glaze and colour industry is analyzed, accounting also for the situation of its main European competitor in Italy. The formation and development of the industry is also described in relation to the industrial district and the innovation system where it belongs, together with the R&D activity, the innovation activity, and the main technological milestones that have made it become the wor…

The unequal effect of the globalisation between the spanish textile companies
2008
The aim of this work is to analyse the different impact of competitive environment changes across different indicators in the competitive environment on the Spanish companies of the textile and apparel industry. The results obtained from the contrast upon a sample composed by 5.531 SME’s of this sector show a important role of the territory and of the strategy of internationalization. For this reason, given the trend of this industry to the concentration and geographical specialization it is expected that the effect of these changes is irregular and asymmetrical between the main producing Spanish regions.
Lead isotopes in biological matrices to identify potential sources of contamination: the case study of Sulcis-Iglesiente district (SW Sardinia, Italy)
2017
The Sulcis-Iglesiente district has been, until recently, one of the most important Italian polymetallic mining areas for the extraction of lead. Located close to the town of Iglesias, the San Giorgio area constitutes a dramatic example of an area affected by intense mine pollution. Epidemiological studies regarding the mining areas of Sardinia have indicated the Sulcis-Iglesiente as a typical example of how dispersion of metal can affect human health. We have chosen this peculiar area to evaluate whether a supposed prolonged and continuous exposure to high lead concentration can be detected by means of a bio-monitoring procedure that uses the analysis of human scalp hair and the measurement…
Verso una gestione sostenibile del patrimonio culturale e paesaggistico. Intuizioni dal progetto NEPTIS
2019
The attractiveness of a touristic area depends on the combination of "magnet resources" and other complementary resources. The authors applied the resource-based view approach to understand how a touristic district can enrich its attractiveness. Empirically, authors focus on the district of Sicilian Baroque. Authors also consider how informatics solutions - provided by NEPTIS Project - may increase the valorisation of magnet resources, such as the landscape and cultural heritage of the Baroque sites
The formation of local territorial administration in Poland in the years 1945–1952
2021
Kształtowanie się systemu administracji lokalnej w Polsce w latach 1945–1952 jest jednym z najciekawszych zagadnień w powojennej historii Polski. Z jednej strony formalnie funkcjonował system samorządu terytorialnego, ale z drugiej strony pojawia się nieznany wcześniej w Polsce sowiecki model administracyjny rad narodowych. Połączenie systemów samorządu terytorialnego i rad narodowych skomplikował sytuację administracyjną w Polsce. Hierarchiczny układ rad, czyli podporządkowanie rad niższego szczebla radom wyższego szczebla, oznaczało odejście od jednej z podstawowych cech samorządu terytorialnego, czyli niezależności danego szczebla struktury administracyjnej w stosunku do poziomu znajdują…
Seat Competitiveness and Redistricting: Evidence from Voting on Municipal Mergers
2013
We analyze how (anticipated) changes in the competitiveness of the seats of municipal councilors affect their voting behavior over municipal mergers. The competitiveness of the seats changes because the merger changes the composition of political competitors and the number of available seats in the next election. We use this variation for identification and find that the smaller the increase in the competitiveness of a councilor's seat, the more likely he is to vote for the merger. These effects are not related to the behavioral responses of the voters, but arise from the councilors’ desire to avoid electoral competition.
The evolution of breast cancer mortality and morbidity in Spain (1977?1988)
1996
A study of breast cancer mortality and cancer morbidity has been carried out in Spain recently for the period 1977-1988, covering the population of the 17 Autonomous Communities and 50 provinces of the country. Data was obtained from INE, Instituto Nacional de Estadística (National Institute of Statistics), with age standardization using the indirect method. The different Autonomous Communities and provinces were compared in order to establish possible significant differences. The crude mean mortality rate was 21 cases per 100,000 inhabitants/year; Las Palmas, Gerona, Barcelona, the Balearic Islands, Navarra and Zaragoza have the highest mortality rates, with a proportional increment of 54%…
