An Overview of Attitude Towards Selected Aspects of Electoral Programs of Polish Political Groups Taking Part in the 2014 Elections to the European P…
2017
Elections to the European Parliament (EP), because of its role in establishing the legal order in member states of the European Union (EU), should become increasingly crucial among all the direct elections in which Poles participate in our country’s political system. But the results of analyses carried out by various research institutions indicate that, in Polish public opinion, the elections to the EP are the least important in terms of the meaning they have for Poles. Since the start of their organization, these elections have consistently come second (in terms of significance) to domestic elections – Presidential, Parliamentary, and local. Yet these elections, for many reasons, were act…

A Scholar in Action in Interwar America: John H. Williams on Trade Theory and Bretton Woods
2009
In this paper we analyse the scientific contributions of Harvard economist John H. Williams as international trade theorist and monetary reformer together with his activities as a Vice President of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. In the first 2 Sections we first present a succinct overview of Williams’ main contributions to international trade theory and to the interwar debate on the reform of the international monetary system. Particular attention will be devoted to his early academic writings which contained different critical arguments against the two main tenets of classical international economics: the Ricardian theory of comparative advantages and the gold standard. These critic…
Barack Obama's South Carolina speech
2010
Abstract In this paper, I shall analyze US Presidential Barack Obama's South Carolina victory speech from the perspective of pragmemes. In particular, I shall explore the idea that this speech is constituted by many voices (in other words, it displays polyphony, to use an idea due to Bakhtin, 1981 , Bakhtin, 1986 ) and that the audience is part of this speech event, adding and contributing to its text in a collaborative way (in particular, in constructing meaning). As many are aware (including the journalists who report day by day on Barack Obama's achievements), Obama uses the technique of ‘personification’ 1 ( The Economist , December 13th, 2007). When he voices an idea, he does not just …
Abuso di funzioni costituzionali e responsabilità penale

Riflessioni (critiche) sulla grazia.
2016
Nel contributo si riflette criticamente sul ruolo e sulla funzione della grazia, che sembra un istituto in gran parte superato dalla evoluzione giuridica e dalla separazione dei poteri. Ciò anche alla luce della considerazione che molte delle esigenze alle quali essa rispondeva sono garantite da altri rimedi giuridici. Pertanto, si propone una modifica dell’istituto, lasciando un limitato spazio applicativo nei casi nei quali vi sia la necessità di concedere la grazia solo per superare condanne definitive che mettano in pericolo la sicurezza dello Stato o i suoi rapporti con i Paesi stranieri.
La Méthode como hermenéutica musical Homenaje a Edgar Morin por su 100º cumpleaños
2021
The present work addresses the principles and properties of the complex thought formulated by the French thinker Edgar Morin and the way in which he was able me to articulate his conception of organizational complexity with one of the most important theories of musical analysis, which emerged at the beginning of the 20th century: the schenkerian analysis. It is a review and extension of a few pages of my doctoral thesis, which are intended to pay tribute to who has been, in addition to my teacher, Honorary President of Itamar since its first issue. His teachings and support has always been the engine for my quest for musical organization. On July 21, 2021, Morin celebrated his 100th birthda…
United with the United States : George Bush's foreign policy towards Europe 1989-1993
2009
Aapo Jumppasen väitöstutkimuksen mukaan kylmän sodan loppuvaiheissa Yhdysvallat oli ollut taloudellisesti, kulttuurillisesti ja NATO:n kautta integroitunut läntiseen Eurooppaan niin pitkään ja voimakkaasti, että sen ulkopoliittinen johto nimitti maataan eurooppalaiseksi suurvallaksi. Kylmän sodan päättyminen järkytti tätä identiteettiä.George Bushin hallinnon julkisella diplomatialla oli keskeinen rooli Yhdysvaltojen säilymisessä eurooppalaisena suurvaltana. Jumppanen on tutkimuksessaan löytänyt kolme keskeistä argumentaatiostrategiaa, joiden avulla Yhdysvaltojen poliittinen johto edisti tarkoitusperiään Euroopassa. Bushin hallinnon ensimmäinen argumentaatiostrategia korosti Yhdysvaltojen r…
"Intellectually exhausted and increasingly desperate" versus "flat-out false and reeks of desperation" : how the blogs of the candidates in the Ameri…
2015
Negatiivinen kampanjointi on arkipäivää kaikissa vaaleissa Yhdysvalloissa ja se on kuulunut siellä jo pitkään kampanjointiperinteisiin. Negatiivisesta kampanjoinnista on tehty paljon tutkimusta, mutta näkökulma on usein liittynyt esimerkiksi television tai internetin vaalimainontaan, siihen, miten negatiivisuus vaikuttaa äänestäjiin ja äänestysaktiivisuuteen tai mikä on negatiivisuuden kohteena. Vähemmän on tutkittu lähivuosina yleistyneiden blogien käyttöä kampanjoinnissa ja erityisesti negatiivisen kampanjoinnin välineenä. Tämä tutkimus tarkastelee sitä, kuinka Yhdysvaltain vuoden 2012 presidentinvaaliehdokkaiden, Barack Obaman ja Mitt Romneyn, kampanjablogit yrittivät luoda negatiivista …
Vote Transfers, Thwarted Voters and Newcomers in the 2009 Presidential Runoff in Romania
2011
Abstract This article investigates the role of thwarted voters and newcomers in setting the result of the December 6th, 2009 presidential runoff in Romania. For this purpose it employs panel survey data from the Romanian Election Studies, collected across three waves: pre-election, between the two rounds, post-election. Initially, it draws a picture of the main evolutions in turnout and vote between the first and the second round, with a special emphasis on vote transfers and risks associated to turnout and pro-winner overreporting. Then it analyzes the thwarted voters and their rationalities of making second-order electoral choices in the presidential runoff. The influence of campaign deve…
