Products labeled as “made in domestic country”: the brand matters
2020
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to better understand an increasingly widespread practice consisting, of a brand, in signaling the domestic origin of its products aimed at domestic consumers, that is, the “made in the domestic country” (MIDC) strategy. To this end, it is proposed to analyze the MIDC label as a cue interacting with the brand’s characteristics (brand equity and country of origin of the brand). Design/methodology/approach A between-subjects experiment is conducted among 293 French consumers on four different brands of pasta. The overall design is a 2 (with/without the MIDC label) × 2 (high/low brand equity) × 2 (domestic/foreign brand) mixed design. Findings The results s…
Historicising Cultural Sport Psychology : Dare we De-centre Methodological Eurocentrism?
2021
In this essay we critically reflect on our respective journeys to and within cultural sport psychology (CSP). Since the inception, CSP scholars have advocated for opening the privileged academic space for marginalised voices and omitted subject themes; as well as cautioned researchers that the CSP project itself needs to be constantly revisited and reworked to keep it in progressive flux. We argue that, despite some notable advances, CSP remains a predominantly white Anglo-American intellec-tual space and that previous calls to engage with issues of power and privilege in the prevailing knowledge production have been largely unanswered. The lack of diverse voices within the CSP community ma…

Madness (about) seeing: dalla costruzione sociale del visuale alla costruzione visuale del sociale
2017
La cultura che siamo soliti definire come “occidentale” possiede nell’oculocentrismo, come altre, più di altre, uno dei suoi tratti maggiormente distintivi. Individuato, tra gli altri, il senso della vista come canale privilegiato per relazionarsi con il mondo, l’uomo occidentale ha dato origine ad un’operazione di trasfigurazione del reale in termini visivi che lo ha condotto, in tempi recenti, ad identificarsi con gli oggetti che tale processo ha messo al mondo; da più parti, infatti, ci viene detto che viviamo nella (non meglio definita) “società delle immagini”. Subito dopo aver analizzato il luogo e il tempo in cui la preferenza per il vedere ha piantato le proprie solidissime e rizoma…

Decreasing consumer animosity: The relationship between fast food businesses and social conflicts in Latin America and the Caribbean
2021
Consumer animosity represents discomfort towards foreign goods, services and brands originating in countries with which there is some kind of conflict; in this way, a better understanding of consumer behavior in respect of hostilities between countries is sought. On the other hand, the conflicts in Latin America and the Caribbean are often overlooked in the academic literature, which focuses on studying the major Western economies and the great Asian tigers, given their political, economic and military value; for this reason, consumer animosity studies are mostly conducted in these countries. This study seeks to contribute to the scarce literature on consumer animosity in Latin America, thr…
Self-awareness, Perspective-taking, and Egocentrism
2016
AbstractThe present experiment examined the effect of self-awareness on adult perspective-taking and egocentrism. After having indicated their own opinion on an ecology-related topic, university students estimated a fellow student’s opinion on the same matter. Participants did so either in front of a mirror or not, and either after having received a cue for the fellow student’s most probable opinion—his perspective—or not, resulting in a 2 (self-awareness: Low vs. high) × 2 (cue: Yes vs. no) between persons design. As expected, self-aware participants were more likely to correctly estimate the fellow student’s most probable opinion, reflecting perspective-taking, if a cue for his/her perspe…

2019
Spanish Abstract: La Historia nos ha venido mostrando la construccion de unas sociedades, diversas, evolutivas, institucionalizadas, con mayor o menor rigor, pero con un orden establecido por hombres. Un orden disenado, reelaborado, destruido y posteriormente conquistado, por quienes se han venido beneficiando de el; un orden pensado por y para hombres. Esa realidad es indubitada. Como innegable es tambien que las grandes ideas, los grandes logros de la sociedad, especialmente en la Modernidad, fueron desarrolladas y desarrollados sin las mujeres, y en ocasiones a su costa. La familia, el bienestar, el desarrollo economico, la religion, la justicia y la democracia, y otros muchos mojones qu…

Dumb Animals: A Short History of Classical Logocentrism
2021
Among the most common and influential stereotypes of Greco-Roman literature is the idea that animals are ‘dumb’ (ἄλογα/muta), that is, mute and devoid of reason. In recent years, several explorations of what Stephen Newmyer has aptly called the ‘man alone of animals’ topos have pointed out that in asserting the privileged status of humans the ancients attached special importance to articulate language. Yet, most of these explorations have adopted a thematic rather than historical approach in an attempt to provide a comparative assessment of ancient and modern paradigms. In the present paper, I follow a historical line through the literary representations of animals as ‘dumb’, focusing on tw…
