Parliament and the Press : Forging the United Nations in Wartime Britain, 1939–45
2020
During the Second World War, not only the United States but also Great Britain played a leading role in planning and establishing the United Nations (UN) as a new international organisation to replace the League of Nations. While scholarship on post‐war planning is extensive, relatively little exists on how the planning process was discussed and depicted publicly in Britain. The purpose of this article is to fill such lacunae by examining the two most important domains for public discussion at the time, the press and parliament. It will argue, first, that the League of Nations’ experience – its inability to use collective force and its optimistically democratic structure – overwhelmingly sh…
Non-IFRS and changes in accounting institutions : Lessons from Nokia
2022
We analyse the lessons learned from Nokia to illustrate the changing focus in accounting and organisational practices that affect the perceptions of relevant accounting work and the key measures of success. In the course of an analysis covering 25 years, the introduction of management accounting innovations was first emphasised regarding managerial relevance but were later replaced by financial accounting emphasis and innovations (e.g. non-IFRS reporting). Our data includes public reports, newspaper articles and 21 interviews made between 1996 and 2019. We present a framework for analysing shifts in the focus of accounting. Our case analysis on changing accounting practices, on shifting pe…
Todo tosco y sin labrar: el model conventual de santa Teresa i el seu reflex en la normativa arquitectònica de l’orde carmelità descalç
2015
Resum: El concepte de vida de clausura plantejat per santa Teresa va determinar la naturalesa de les edificacions escomeses en el si de la congregació de carmelites descalços. La senzillesa i l’estretor requerits per la fundadora en l’establiment dels nous convents esdevingueren preceptes d’obligat compliment per part de les autoritats de l’orde, i quedaren recollits en les diverses constitucions internes generades al llarg dels segles XVI, XVII i XVIII. Aquest article analitza els models constructius establerts des dels inicis de l’existència de la congregació i la manera en què van ser aplicats amb posterioritat. Paraules clau: santa Teresa, carmelites descalços, normativa, convent, traça…
Il convertito che opera conversioni: san Dionigi nel «Dionysius» di Rosvita di Gandersheim
2016
In her seventh hagiographical poem, «Dionysius» (or «Passio sancti Dionysii egregii martyris»), Hrotsvit of Gandersheim (935-973) elaborates in 266 rhymed hexameters a story already told in the «Vita sancti Dionysii» of Hilduinus, abbot of Saint-Denis, composed about 835 by order of the emperor Louis the Pious, to whom he is devoted. Hrotsvit, in this work, presents the figure of Dionysius as a convert by the apostle Paulus, who consecrates his new Christian life to the conversion of the Pagans, until his martyrdom (which is under the topic of “cephalologie”, a recurring theme in classical and medieval lore). The poem has a big interest, both historical and literary. The paper presents and …

Development of novel dipeptide-like rhodesain inhibitors containing the 3-bromoisoxazoline warhead in a constrained conformation.
2015
Novel dipeptide-like rhodesain inhibitors containing the 3-bromoisoxazoline warhead in a constrained conformation were developed; some of them possess K(i) values in the micromolar range. We studied the structure-activity relationship of these derivatives and we performed docking studies, which allowed us to find out the key interactions established by the inhibitors with the target enzyme. Biological results indicate that the nature of the P2 and P3 substituents and their binding to the S2/S3 pockets is strictly interdependent.
