When Economics Faces the Economy: John Bates Clark and the 1914 Antitrust Legislation
2013
The aim of this paper is to analyze John Bates Clark's influence in the passing of the Clayton and Federal Trade Commission Acts of 1914. It is argued that Clark was important to the passage of these acts in two ways. First, he exercised an indirect influence by discussing in academic journals and books problems concerning trusts, combinations, and the measures necessary to preserve the working of competitive markets. At least as importantly, Clark took an active role in the reform movement, both contributing to draft proposals for the amendment of existing antitrust legislation and providing help and advice during the Congressional debates that led to the passage of the FTC and Clayton Act…
The rationality of acceptance in a nuclear community: analysing residents' opinions on the expansion of the SNF repository in the municipality of Eur…
2010
The project to build a final disposal repository for Spent Nuclear Fuel (SNF) in the municipality of Eurajoki, Finland, is approaching its 2012 deadline for the application of a construction licence. At the same time, the nuclear waste company Posiva is already planning to expand the disposal capacity of the repository. This paper addresses the question of acceptance among the residents of Eurajoki regarding the repository's expansion, and examines what aspects should be taken into consideration when explaining local opinions. The local acceptance figures for Eurajoki are analysed in relation to assumptions of the six common explanation types. The relationship between information deficit, s…
'I had to help my child!': The role of emotions, risk, and trust in use of nasal decongestants in children.
2013
Recent studies suggest that a number of common cold medicines, including nasal decongestants are not suitable for small children. In Latvia nasal decongestants are primarily over-the-counter (OTC) medicines, and patient information leaflets generally permit use of these medicines for small children. The previous studies in Latvia investigating the use of medicines in cases of common cold demonstrated extensive use of decongestants in children less than six years of age, marking a necessity for more profound research. As a result a qualitative study was implemented in 2011 to identify sources of information that offer advice for the use of decongestants in children. The caregivers’ percepti…
La reputazione delle istituzioni formative. Una questione di cura e di coerenza
2020
What is the reputation of the school and university in our society? What social credibility do they have? At first glance, it seems necessary to answer that the two main educational institutions do not enjoy a good reputation and this for a series of reasons, two of which have particular pedagogical importance: the typical mistrust of our time towards any form of institutionalization and devaluation care work. Certainly here we can see the signs of the moral fragility of our time, linked to the questioning of all forms of authority. Although it is therefore common today to talk about the importance of educational corresponsibility between school and family, there are numerous gestures that …
La geografía escolar: deseos institucionales y vivencias de aula
2018
School geography embodies the attempt of political and academic institutions of systematizing geographical content knowledge: to transform geography in a learning object for the population. The purpose of this article is to highlight the existing differences and similarities in the analysis of school geography. On the one hand, we refer to the curricular framework and to the education system. On the other hand, we deal with the inherent problems of geography teaching in childhood, primary and secondary education. In these contexts, geography contents aim to convey the description of the environment to students that tend to distrust canonical academic discourse, as they consider it to be bey…
The role of trust in cruise passenger behavioral intentions : The moderating effects of the cruise line brand
2014
Purpose– The purpose of this paper is to develop and test a framework to investigate the relationship between perceived value, satisfaction, trust and behavioral intentions and the moderator effect of the cruise line on cruise passengers’ perceptions.Design/methodology/approach– A structural model was developed. In order to verify the hypotheses, a total of 729 cruise passengers were sampled. The study of the data used structural equation models by means of a multi-group analysis.Findings– The results of this study suggest significant paths to increase behavioral intentions: perceived service quality? satisfaction? trust?. In addition, it has been proved that the cruise line moderates the r…
Trust management in tactical coalition software defined networks
2018
This paper reports from ongoing efforts related to trust management in tactical Software Defined Networks (SDN) when used with mobile nodes in a coalition operation. We analyze the problem space and suggests a set of security and contructional requirements, as well as an analysis on how existing technology may contribute to a solution. The proposed architecture serves as a guide for current and future experimentation on trust management and protection in SDN. The paper also reports from experimental investigations into the utility of these technology elements for the present purpose.
DIO SALVI IL RESTAURO. L’apporto inglese alla cultura della conservazione dei monumenti
2020
Sebbene già riuscissimo a percepire quanto rilevante fosse l’apporto inglese per aver contribuito alla definizione del restauro modernamente inteso, sino ad oggi mancavano ancora sia una chiara visione d’insieme delle articolate vicende connesse all'affermazione dei princìpi conservativi, sia una più approfondita conoscenza delle fonti documentarie, necessarie al fine di tracciare i profili culturali dei protagonisti e scandagliarne i contributi teorici. La ricostruzione delle vicende è sviluppata entro margini temporali estesi all'incirca per tre secoli, dalla fine del Seicento al principio del Nove-cento, e strutturata attraverso la traduzione e lo studio di testi perlopiù mai circolati i…
