New Inhabitants for the Re-use of Historical Territories in South-Eastern Sicily
2021
In spite of the multifaceted criticalities that characterise the Sicilian territory, South-Eastern Sicily appears to be of particular interest due to the active role that distinguishes it from the rest of the Island. The transformation processes taking place in South-Eastern Sicily, in fact, seem to be guided by new perspectives of sustainability, local development and good governance. The mix obtained from the extraordinary amount of tangible and intangible resources, from some favourable socio-cultural circumstances and from the creation of new transportation infrastructures, has contributed to promoting new forms of reuse of the historical building heritage by Italian and overseas invest…

El frente popular: ¿Qué clase de acontecimiento? Historiografía y actualidad de las investigaciones sobre el Frente Popular
2016
The development of the historiography on the Popular Front has focused on three main fields, political history, social history and cultural history. However, the fragmentation of the object of study has hindered a more global reflection on the Popular Front, as one major event which constituted both a political and cultural project and an unprecedented social and political alliance with a broad popular movement. A fundamental event, embedded in the long life of French history, with significant consequences for the social area of the working class, the start of a new culture of social democracy French-style and as a reference which nourished the fights of the French Resistance as well as its…
Cuando la historia está presente: Argumentos a favor de la sociología histórica
2019
Sociology and history have maintained a discontinuous relationship and a permanent discussion. Classical sociology is intrinsically historical, but after the first theoretical synthesis the dialogue between both disciplines was extinguished and it has often been necessary to defend the need for the historical view in sociology from the margins of the dominant paradigm. However, as a specialty or subdiscipline, historical sociology has consolidated its own academic space and a strong theoretical, methodological and conceptual body. In Spain this process of institutionalization has not yet success. In this article we expose a few arguments in defense of historical sociology, both theoretical …
History and organizational theorizing blended: Insights from exploring the corporate social responsibility field
2019
The “historic turn” in management and organizational studies (MOS) called organizational theorists and historians to engage in discussions on how to best combine organizational theorizing and historical reasoning, methods, and evidence. Arguably, the collective effort of the emergent academic movement has recently resulted in interdisciplinary integration, which foregrounds a new methodological paradigm within MOS. However, history remains a marginal epistemic lens and mode of inquiry in the various research fields of MOS. An example of this trend is the field of corporate social responsibility (CSR), which focuses on the responsibilities of business to pursue its goals in a socially and en…
Facing the Normative Challenges : The Potential of Reflexive Historical Research
2016
This article explores methodological problems of qualitative research templates, that is, the Eisenhardt and the Gioia case study approaches, which are relevant for the business and society (B&S) scholarship and outlines a reflexive historical research methodology that has the potential to face these challenges. Building on Hans-Georg Gadamer’s philosophical hermeneutics, we draw critical attention to qualitative B&S research and frame the methodological problems identified as the normative challenges of qualitative research, that is, to productively deal with both the researchers’ norms and the research subjects’ norms. We then introduce the reflexive historical case study (RHCS), …
I territori marginali come laboratorio di futuro per le politiche di innovazione digitale

Nell’Italia dei “territori marginali” dove la perdita di popolazione e il conseguente abbandono dei centri abitati costituisce una ferita per l’intero Paese, si contra…
Historical building dating: refinement of established sample preparation protocol
2010
Abstract: The application of thermal (TL) and optical (OSL) stimulated luminescence on pottery and building materials has allowed to resolve numer-ous problems in both the fields of retrospective do-simetry and dating. Routine measurements request the registration of TL signals obtained on polymineral fine-grained frac-tion (FG) extracted from pottery sherds and bricks used as building material with the Added Dose (AD) technique. One of the reasons of the dispersion of the lumi-nescence measurements when using this fraction is the variability of relative contents of quartz and feld-spars, which due to their differing behaviour influ-encing the equivalent dose (ED) and therefore its uncertai…
