Nella giostra della social photography

2018

Oggi la fotografia va ben oltre la fissazione dei ricordi. Il volume riprende la nota ricerca di Bourdieu relativa agli usi sociali della fotografia intorno alla metà degli anni Sessanta. Da questa si desume che un tempo gli scatti dei non professionisti, mediati dall'habitus di classe, intercettavano i momenti topici della vita sociale e le tipicità espresse da una cultura condivisa. Mentre le foto dei professionisti aspiravano a riconoscere i momenti decisivi in senso autoriale in vari ambiti (reportage, moda, paesaggio, pubblicità…). Oggi, in virtù dell'accelerazione sociale, siamo incerti sulla direzione della Storia. Tutti i fenomeni sono potenzialità del mondo, come tutte le immagini …

Monopolization, classification and symbolic violence: Pierre Bourdieu’s contribution to the analysis of State Nationalism

2021

The study of nationalism is usually split into its macro-sociological dimension and the political and coercive aspects on the one hand, and into micro-sociological, psychological and symbolic aspec...

Excess of de novo variants in genes involved in chromatin remodelling in patients with marfanoid habitus and intellectual disability.

2020

PurposeMarfanoid habitus (MH) combined with intellectual disability (ID) (MHID) is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous presentation. The combination of array CGH and targeted sequencing of genes responsible for Marfan or Lujan–Fryns syndrome explain no more than 20% of subjects.MethodsTo further decipher the genetic basis of MHID, we performed exome sequencing on a combination of trio-based (33 subjects) or single probands (31 subjects), of which 61 were sporadic.ResultsWe identified eight genes with de novo variants (DNVs) in at least two unrelated individuals (ARID1B, ATP1A1, DLG4, EHMT1, NFIX, NSD1, NUP205 and ZEB2). Using simulation models, we showed that five genes (DLG4, NFIX, …

A Comparison between Habituation and Conscience mechanism in Self–Organizing Maps

2006

In this letter, a preliminary study of habituation in self-organizing networks is reported. The habituation model implemented allows us to obtain a faster learning process and better clustering performances. The liabituable neuron is a generalization of the typical neuron and can be used in many self-organizing network models. The habituation mechanism is implemented in a SOM and the clustering performances of the network are compared to the conscience learning mechanism that follows roughly the same principle but is less sophisticated.

Pre-conventions. A fragment of the Background

2016

In this paper I argue that there exist conventions of a peculiar sort which are neither norms nor regularities of behaviour, partaking of both. I proceed as follows. After a brief analysis of the meaning of ‘convention’, I give some examples of the kind of phenomena I have in mind: bodily skills, know-how, taste and style, habitus (P. Bourdieu), “disciplines” (M. Foucault). Then I group some arguments supporting my claim: (i) considerations about the identity conditions of precedents (D. Lewis) and about the projectibility of predicates in inductive inference generally (N. Goodman); (ii) thoughts about rule-following (L. Wittgenstein); (iii) an examination of some of J. R. Searle’s ideas ab…

Stimulant-induced adaptations in neostriatal matrix and striosome systems: Transiting from instrumental responding to habitual behavior in drug addic…

2005

Abstract Converging evidence indicates that repeated exposure to motor stimulants such as cocaine and amphetamine produces marked alterations in network responsiveness of striatal neurons to subsequent challenge with the same stimulant drug. Such alterations, which correlate with persistent patterns of repetitive behavior, associate with distinct compartmental changes in the neostriatum. Striatal matrix system neurons undergo “silencing” following repeated drug challenges, allowing striosome system neurons to exhibit preferential activation. Matrix neurons are innervated by sensory and motor areas of neocortex and are activated in the course of on-going, adaptive behavior. Inactivation of m…

Sensory and sympathetic correlates of heat pain sensitization and habituation in men and women

2012

Background Habituation and sensitization are important behavioural responses to repeated exposure to painful stimuli, but little is known about the factors determining sensory, affective and sympathetic habituation to repeated pain stimulation in men and women. Methods Thirty volunteers (15 women) underwent a standardized heat pain paradigm spread over 8 consecutive days. At the beginning of the experiment, personality dimensions, coping strategies and pain catastrophizing thoughts were determined. Receiving a series of 10 blocks of six painful heat stimuli a day, participants rated pain intensity and unpleasantness. Skin conductance was recorded throughout the sessions. Results and Conclus…

Programa de deshabituación. ¿Cuáles son los factores que llevan al dropout?

2004

La toxicodependencia, es considerada como uno de los grandes problemas de la socie¬dad actual.El internamiento de los toxicodependientes, en unidades de tratamiento de deshabi¬tuación, es uno de los modelos de intervención implantados en Portugal, como una de las formas de dar respuesta a esta problemática.Aunque la adhesión al programa de deshabituación sea significativa, cabe destacar que el cumplimiento del mismo, no siempre se verifica.Es este contexto, desenvolvemos el trabajo con el objetivo de conocer eventuales factores asociados al «dropout», es decir, salida del programa sin ser por alta clínica.Siendo un trabajo desenvuelto en el ámbito académico, fue condicionado por el tiempo d…
