Verifica del merito creditizio, responsabilità del finanziatore e "indebitamento incauto"

2014

La tesi analizza la nuova disciplina europea sul credito ai consumatori, introdotta dalla direttiva 2008/48/Ce, recepita nel nostro ordinamento con il d.lgs. n. 141/2010, che ha modificato il Testo unico bancario (d.lgs n. 385/1993). In particolare, si sofferma sull'obbligo di verifica del merito creditizio, previsto dall'art. 124 bis Tub, e sulla responsabilità del finanziatore che concede credito senza osservare il disposto della norma suddetta. Dopo aver ascritto alla responsabilità "da contatto sociale" la condotta del prestatore che concede credito in maniera poco accorta (non senza precisare che in ultima istanza la concessione disinvolta di credito avrà riflessi sulle condizioni cont…

Il cammino indicato dalla Corte costituzionale per la disciplina del suicidio medicalmente assistito fra giurisprudenza di merito e perdurante attesa…

2021

The study aims to investigate the indicator path from the sentence of the Constitutional Court n. 242/2019 on medically assisted suicide. Pending the approval of the legislative discipline, on which Parliament is currently working, deemed necessary by the Constitutional Court itself to give certainty to such an ethically delicate matter, judges are increasingly finding themselves deciding on cases of medically assisted suicide and on the both on the level of criminal law and on the level of civil law, interpreting the constitutional jurisprudence on the subject in a constitutionally compliant

Gradus dignitatis (Cic. rep. I 27, 43). Merito e metro di valutazione dell’optimus status civitatis

2017

Starting from the review of the expression gradus dignitatis, used by Cicero in rep. I 27, 43, by means of a specific semantic-etymological investigation of the lemma dignitas and by comparing the different translations of this couple of words in the main modern languages, the paper attempts to reconstruct the position held by Cicero about the choice of magistratures within the optimus status civitatis. A position of highly meritocratic mark and in open polemic against the principle, promoted by the supporters of democratic regimes, of aequitas / aequabilitas in covering official positions, in a dialectical relationship with Plato and Aristotle. In the background of the specific debate open…

Influence of the tear film on optical quality of the eye

1997

The optical quality of the tear film of the eye was tested by measuring the retinal image before and after the break-up time (BUT). An objective method was used based on the evaluation of the retinal image of a point test projected onto the fovea. The loss of an entire tear film would result in a decrease in the optical quality because of corneal irregularities and the formation of an irregular tear lens after the BUT. Our results confirm the expected loss both of non-contact lens wearers and contact lens wearers. Also, the fact that the optical deterioration found after the BUT is greater for contact lens wearers confirms that soft contact lens wear produces a disruption of the tears.

La funzione tecnica e il mestiere dell'artigiano nella Grecia antica tra merito e responsabilità. Una rassegna critica

2017

This paper is a critical essay on the social value of craftsmen in ancient Greece as well of the merit and ethic responsibility connected to the social use of their skills and forms of knowledge, the so-called technai. On one hand a low grade of social consideration was attributed to craftsmen, especially among the upper classes in the Greek cities; on the other hand, craft and technical skills were an essential medium for all the material products and commodities to be supplied for the citizens. The origins of this ambiguous relationship between society and technical skills seem to lie in the particular social and political conditions of Greek craftsmen, mostly foreign people at the dispos…

Merit, Competition, Distinction

2018

The article presents a critique of competition by introducing a concept called 'distinction'. Competition is thought to work as a guarantee of the fairness of meritocratic procedures (merit-based recruiting in the job market or e.g. entrance examinations). However, fairness created by competition is, even at its best, only relative. This critique is then used a part of a larger critique of the role of merit in society.
