Aniceto, Lucas. "Les agglomérations italiques : études des formes matérielles de l'agrégation humaine en pays samnite, lucanien et brettien (Vème-Ier s. av. J.-C.)." Thesis, Paris 1, 2019. http://www.theses.fr/2019PA01H028.
Full textAbstract:
L’étude des agglomérations dans l’hinterland italique est un sujet, par bien des aspects, assez neuf qui – malgré des études ponctuelles, d’abord en Italie méridionale – a surtout attiré l’attention au cours des dernières années. Il manquait encore une tentative d’aborder le phénomène à grande échelle, dans ses différentes manifestations. Et pour cause : il s’agit d’un objet d’étude aux multiples facettes, faisant intervenir de nombreuses spécialités et soulevant de vifs débats. Au cours d’une série de chapitres, nous nous attellerons à brosser le portrait de ces agglomérations en compilant systématiquement la documentation relative à ces établissements, indépendamment de leur statut. Les trois premiers chapitres constituent les fondations de l’étude. À travers une analyse terminologique et historiographique, qui permettra de replacer notre sujet dans le panorama des études sur l’habitat au sens large, nous discuterons le concept même d’agglomération dans ces régions ainsi que les différentes approches possibles par le biais de l’archéologie à la lumière des différents débats qui animent la recherche dans le milieu des études italiques mais également au-delà. Nous ciblerons progressivement notre analyse sur une problématique spécifique : les formes et des logiques d’implantation, c’est-à-dire la géographie urbaine de ces établissements. Les quatrième et cinquième chapitres, qui sont au cœur de l’étude, proposent une mise à plat raisonnée de la documentation topographique et archéologique. Les données seront examinées à différentes échelles d’analyse, tout en tenant compte de la diversité et des différents degrés de complexité que revêt la notion même d’agglomérationOver the last few years, a new research interest in the agglomerations of the Italic hinterland has emerged. Up until now, specific studies had shed some light on Southern Italy. But a large-scale approach was yet to be attempted, to explore the various aspects of this complex, many-faceted phenomenon that has generated lively discussions among experts from a variety of fields.This dissertation offers a description of these particular agglomerations based on a systematic compilation of the documentation pertaining to these establishments, regardless of their status.The first three chapters lay the foundations of our study. After an overview of habitat research through the prism of terminology and historiography, we will discuss the concept of agglomeration in the territories we study and the different archeological perspectives in the light of debates inside and beyond the field of Italic studies. We will then gradually focus on the forms and logics of establishment, i.e. the urban geography of our sites. The fourth and fifth chapters offer a reasoned presentation of the existing topographical and archeological material. As we examine our data at various scales of analysis, we will constantly consider the diversity and complexity the notion of agglomeration assumes

Hamilton, Desirae. "The Captain of the People in Renaissance Florence." Thesis, University of North Texas, 2015. https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc804880/.
Full textAbstract:
The Renaissance Florentine Captain of the People began as a court, which defended the common people or popolo from the magnates and tried crimes such as assault, murder and fraud. This study reveals how factionalism, economic stress and the rise of citizen magistrate courts eroded the jurisdiction and ended the Court of the Captain. The creation of the Captain in 1250 occurred during the external fight for dominance between the Holy Roman Emperor and the Pope and the struggle between the Guelfs and Ghibellines within the city of Florence. The rise of the Ciompi in 1379, worried the Florentine aristocracy who believed the Ciompi was a threat to their power and they created the Otto di Guardia, a citizen magistrate court. This court began as a way to manage gaps in jurisdiction not covered by the Captain and his fellow rectors. However, by 1433 the Otto eroded the power of the Captain and his fellow rectors. Historians have argued that the Roman law jurists in this period became the tool for the aristocracy but in fact, the citizen magistrate courts acted as a source of power for the aristocracy. In the 1430s, the Albizzi and Medici fought for power. The Albizzi utilized a government mandate, which had the case already carried out or a bullectini to exile Medici adherents. However, by 1433, the Medici triumphed and Cosimo de Medici returned to the city of Florence. He expanded the power of the Otto in order to utilize the bullectini to exile his enemies. The expansion of jurisdiction of the Otto further eroded the power of the Captain. Factionalism, economic stress and the rise of the citizen magistrate courts eroded the power of the Captain of the people.

Dodaro, Maria. "Active Cities for Activation Policies. Entrepreneurship support and young people in Milan and Barcelona." Doctoral thesis, Universitat de Barcelona, 2019. http://hdl.handle.net/10803/668708.
Full textAbstract:
The thesis is framed in the disciplinary field of urban sociology and aims to analyse municipal entrepreneurship support policies promoted by the cities of Milan (Italy) and Barcelona (Spain), with a focus on the experiences of young people up to the age of thirty-five who have benefited from the different measures during the years 2012 to 2016. The concept of entrepreneurship, explicitly and sometimes implicitly accompanied by that of self-employment, is central in many policy agendas at many levels of government. In Europe, indeed, the growing concern about the persistence of high levels of unemployment, especially among young people, combined with the consolidation of activation as a paradigm in the reorientation of public actions for social inclusion, have made entrepreneurship a key instrument not only for economic development strategies, but also for activation policies (inclusive entrepreneurship). At the local level, European cities are particularly active in supporting inclusive entrepreneurship, being also able to count on the fact that new economic opportunities have found fertile ground in urban contexts, driven primarily by the growth of the service sector and a distinctive capacity for innovation. However, despite its relevance, this issue has been scantly addressed in the literature. In this context, the thesis proposes an interpretative framework for exploring this object of study that incorporates, on the one hand, neo-Marxist-inspired and neo-Weberian approaches to urban policy and governance and, on the other hand, the socio-economic literature and theoretically relevant institutional documentation on entrepreneurship, including within the framework of studies on the reorganization of the welfare state. The critical reading of the reference literature has led to two analytical macro-approaches. The first highlights the thesis of the convergence of urban policies towards neoliberal modes of governance, and welfare models based on market needs and competitiveness instead of social cohesion. A trend that entrepreneurship support policies seem to exemplify. The second highlights the peculiarities of the European city, identified with the resistance of the compromise between growth and social inclusion objectives, and supports the opposite thesis of the divergence between cities, the relevance of the political dimension and the local policy actors. Within this framework, the research has focused on how local political actors interpret, invalidate or reproduce the mainstream approach to entrepreneurship support policies and the role played in this respect by institutional factors and political aspects. Besides, the investigation included the analysis of the implications in terms of redistribution of risks and opportunities among the young people interviewed. To this ends, the research has availed itself of a qualitative methodology, case-based comparative analysis and the technique of the interview. The study revealed the heterogeneity of municipal entrepreneurship support policies concerning ideas and values, objectives, measures and tools, as well as the experiences of the young beneficiaries. Finally, the thesis highlights how policy orientations, local political paradigms, institutional legacies and governance arrangements interact to shape specific and different approaches to entrepreneurship support policies in the two cities, and how these influence the capacity to govern socio-economic changes.

Full textAbstract:
After the mass expansion of higher education, young people's experiences in university have become crucial in defining the overall characteristics of the current European youth. Despite the relevance of these paths of transitions, the variation of young people's experiences in university remains a relatively overlooked area. This research aims to fill this gap by exploring the inequality of young people's lives in university (encompassing financial circumstances, housing, well-being and education). The research employs a theoretical framework in which individual experiences are analysed in relation to structural fact ors, namely their socio-economic backgrounds and available welfare mixes (sources from the family, the state and the labour market). Welfare sources are conceptualised as structures available to semi-dependent young people to cope with social risks in the context of a privatisation of social risk for young people in university across Europe. Through a comparison of highly different 'welfare mixes' in England, Italy and Sweden, the research clarifies the role of each source of welfare in stratifying young people's experiences in university. The research employed a mixed methodology strategy, combining the use of a q-methodology survey with in-depth follow-up interviews. The research identifies five profiles of young people's experiences in university which are explained by the interaction between welfare sources and socio-economic backgrounds. Furthermore, it identifies three different models of 'semi-dependence' among young people which are linked to the different welfare mixes available in the three countries. The study argues that inequalities in young people's experiences of university arise from the different availability of welfare sources (from the family, state and the labour market), which is related to young people's socio-economic backgrounds. Furthermore, the thesis points out that the increasing use of private sources of welfare results in an increasing inequality of young people's experiences in university.

Full textAbstract:
The starting point of this study is the common assumption that the Italian society is based on a patriarchal ideological system in which racism is often normalized. The binary distinction between women and men in Italian society has evolved into discussions and awareness raising on genderbased violence or violence against women. As intersectionality has become a central point in Italian contemporary feminism, this study uses the analysis of topics related to the historical creation of the idea of Italian-ness, migration and the influence of right-wing politics in current gender related issues as the basis of a feminist Critical Discourse Analysis. With this in mind, using intersectional theory, postcolonial feminism, and studies of whiteness, the study aims at exploring as to which extent the discourses of three white Italian women, who identify as feminist activists, influence the presence of racialized Italian women in their work. This study should create academic data and contribute to a research that is extremely limited on these topics.

Heady, Patrick James. "The hard people : a structuralist account of community and identities in an Alpine valley." Thesis, London School of Economics and Political Science (University of London), 1996. http://etheses.lse.ac.uk/1433/.
Full textAbstract:
The thesis is about the assertion of identity and the maintenance of solidarity in Carnia - a mountainous area in the north east of Italy. The topic is analysed in relation to three interlocking themes: the social units which embody identity and organise cooperation; the tension between rivalrous assertion and the desire for harmonious cooperation; and the different social fields - economic activity, ritual, communication, property and prestation, kinship, and relationships with natural forces - in which the tension is acted out. Constraints on the possibilities of social organisation arise from formal characteristics specific to each field. The structuring of these social fields both shapes and reflects people's commitment to key institutions: patrilocal domestic group, corporate village, church, state, nation. The corporate village is shown to have an affinity with free choice of marriage partners (at least within the village), linguistic particularism, and state organisation. Recent changes in economic life and communications have transformed local society - leading to widespread despondency, self-conscious modernity, but also emphasis on tradition, and political regionalism. It is felt that social relationships should ideally be characterised by sympathetic cooperation and legitimate authority, but the fear is that they may collapse into - or be redefined as - conflicts involving the dangerous force of envy. Two contrasting strategies enable people to deal with this ambiguity: either use of one's own strength and vitality to exclude or overcome opposition, or identification with potential enviers and an emphasis on self-sacrifice. The strategies chosen by individual people depend on the context as well as on their sex, age, and wealth. But social solidarity requires an overall solution which assigns a legitimate role to each strategy. Implicit in the substantive analyses is a methodological point: that a structuralist approach can make a major contribution to our understanding of European societies.

Full textAbstract:
The aim of this thesis is analysing the way in which second-generation Eritreans in Bologna re-construct their Eritrean identity. The originality of the thesis is the fact that this type of research has not been done in Bologna yet: Bologna is a multicultural city where its left-wing tradition has appreciated cultural differences differently from other cities in Italy, such as Milan.To reach the aim of the thesis I interviewed some second-generations Eritreans who were born and grew up in Italy. I also used some previous researches that have been conducted in Italy and abroad about the re-creation of second-generation Eritreans’ identity. The whole research is framed in a theoretical framework, which is composed by the definition of four concepts that are useful for the research; these concepts are: culture, identity, nation, and, diaspora.According to this study, there are many ways in which second-generation Eritreans shape their identity in Bologna. The main ways in which second-generation Eritreans shape their Eritrean identity in Bologna are: the encounter with other Eritreans, their parents’ roots, the language, and the holiday trips back to Eritrea.

GARCIA, LONDONO CAROLINA. "Mountain risk management: integrated people centred early warning system (IEWS) as a risk reduction strategy, Northern Italy." Doctoral thesis, Università degli Studi di Milano-Bicocca, 2011. http://hdl.handle.net/10281/19795.
Full textAbstract:
A methodology to integrate early warning systems and emergency plans has been elaborated in the framework of the European project Mountain Risks. This methodology, focused on prevention as a key element for disaster risk reduction, was partially applied in the Mountain Consortium of Municipalities Valtellina di Tirano, northern Italy, an area recurrently affected by several mountain hazards.
Results indicate that in the study zone, several valuable risk reduction efforts have been made in the past, including the development of a comprehensive emergency plan. However the tendency is still to direct efforts towards emergency response rather than prevention. Taking into account the current state of disaster management and risk reduction initiatives in the study area, it was decided that the methodology that best fits the present conditions would be a non structural approach, such as an Integrated People Centred Early Warning System (IEWS). The aim of the IEWS is not only to increase the level of awareness and preparedness of the community and decrease its vulnerability, but also to strengthen institutional collaboration, in particular at the local level, in order to assure sustainability of the efforts in the long term. All the EWS (Early Warning System) components are present in the study area, but they display several shortcomings, are individually developed, have little structure and are poorly linked. This lack of integration of the components may render these EWS efforts ineffective. To alleviate this, several actions are proposed to integrate the different risk management strategies into an IEWS (Integrated community based Early Warning System) with a interdisciplinary approach. In addition, in order to create a comprehensive disaster management plan it is necessary to combine those IEWS strategies with the emergency plan already existing in the study area.
This thesis presents some results derived from the process of designing and initially implementing an IEWS. However, more work is necessary to complete the implementation of a sustainable IEWS at Valtellina di Tirano. The design of the IEWS involved several phases, including hazard and risk assessment, analysis of the legal framework and also the application of an extensive social survey to evaluate the levels of perceived risk, awareness, preparedness and information needs of the community. The IEWS also includes the development of educational activities to increase preparedness. These activities were designed by an multidisciplinary group composed of scientists, local leaders and local authorities based on the results of the survey. The activities include an education and communication campaign addressed to the local community and practitioner stakeholders.
Results of the survey show that, despite having good knowledge of previous flooding and mass movements, the population of the study area have low levels of perceived risks and preparedness. However, the population also is interested in being informed about natural hazards, mitigation activities, risk management and emergency procedures. People express willingness to participate in communication campaigns to learn how to be better prepared to react in case of a future event. This include learning about appropriate mitigation activities they can perform themselves to be less vulnerable.
The presented thesis also includes a conceptual contribution which describes some of the difficulties and challenges of developing integrated risk reduction strategies with a multidisciplinary approach, together with some recommendations to overcome them and to improve the current risk management situation of the study area.

In the second research, we were interested in exploring ageing and elderly from younger people s point of view. Also in this case, primarily we conducted a study involving university students who lived in Sicily and then, the same study was replicated involving university students who lived in Extremadura. Taken together, researches showed that a general social context that welcomes seniors may result in individuals who live their age better and this would be true also for the elderly. In other words, a favorable life environment, both in objective and subjective and inter-subjective terms may result in elderly individuals having a better self-perception.

Mangano, Alfia. "Formal and family care of older people in England and Italy : a cross-national analysis of ideals and practices." Thesis, University of Leeds, 2014. http://etheses.whiterose.ac.uk/7677/.
Full textAbstract:
Background. Since the 1990s many European countries have undertaken extensive reforms in long-term care for older people in response to concerns over ageing population and the emergence of ideas of neoliberal inspiration about public policy. As a result, elder care policies have conveyed new messages about what constitutes appropriate care in old age. However, individual views of, and attitudes to, such messages are far from granted. Aims. The study is a comparative analysis of care policy for older people in England and Italy. It aims to investigate a) patterns of convergences and divergences in policy developments and their implications for the cultural view of care endorsed by policy-makers; b) the way in which individuals feel about, and react to, the normative messages embedded in public policy when it comes to tackling the care needs of a frail older relative. Methods. A first strand of the study reviews policy documents and literature to examine developments in care policy and their interconnection with trends in broader welfare policy. A second strand of the study provides insights into family carers’ views of, and attitudes to, current trends in national and local policies through a qualitative comparative case study analysis of the dynamics of policies, practices and cultures of care in Leeds (Northern England) and Bologna (Northern Italy). Outcomes. Elder care policies, and the normative messages they convey, have been partly similar between England and Italy since the 1990s. However, the few similarities have been the common arrival point of different pathways. In both countries public policy envisages a model of shared responsibilities between state and family, but the normative messages behind state intervention are challenged by family carers’ views, experiences and practices of care, with traditions and well-established cultural trends concerning care and welfare being an important issue.

Truglia, Giusy. "Les moyens procéduraux de lutte contre la criminalité organisée en France et en Italie." Thesis, Aix-Marseille 3, 2011. http://www.theses.fr/2011AIX32088.
Full textAbstract:
Depuis plusieurs années déjà, un phénomène particulièrement dangereux se répand et s’étend désormais partout, suscitant des inquiétudes au sein de la société : la criminalité organisée. Pour l’endiguer et pour garantir la protection des personnes, on a essayé d’employer une politique de prévention des crimes. A cette fin, de nombreux procédés législatifs ont été adoptés au niveau national et international. La communauté européenne et internationale est intervenue plusieurs fois dans la lutte contre la criminalité organisée, à partir du Traité de Maastricht, d’Amsterdam, du Conseil de Tampere jusqu’au récent Traité de Lisbonne. Ces traités ont permis l’adoption d’importantes mesures pour lutter contre la criminalité organisée. Il est également possible de relever que la Convention des Nations Unies contre la criminalité transnationale organisée et la Convention du 29 mai 2000 ont eu un apport non négligeable. Des accords bilatéraux ont été adoptés par la France et l’Italie pour combattre plus efficacement ce péril et cette plaie qui infecte des points vitaux de la société (par exemple l’Administration Publique et les banques, dont le contrôle est nécessaire pour le blanchiment). La France, avec l’adoption de la loi Perben II du 9 mars 2004 portant adaptation de la justice aux évolutions de la criminalité et l’Italie avec les « paquets sécurité » de 2009 et 2010, ont employé beaucoup de moyens pour réduire et limiter le champ d’action de ces criminels. Un rôle fondamental a été celui des collaborateurs de justice que avec leurs aveux, en échange de réductions de peine, ont dévoilé la structure et la hiérarchie des associations criminelles permettant aux autorités compétentes de mieux les comprendre, de repérer les associés, et en nombreux cas de les détruire. Il faut souligner qu’une mesure efficace a été la confiscation des biens cumulés par les malfaiteurs (bien meubles et immeubles, c’est-à dire des dépôts bancaires, investissements financiers, propriétés, terrains, maisons) et leur utilisation de la part de l’administration publique à des fins sociales à l’avantage de toute la communauté (écoles, édifices publics et hôpitaux). La confiscation du bien, en fait, empêche la criminalité organisée d’en disposer et d’en tirer des revenus, mine sa structure et son pouvoir. Parallèlement, elle donne confiance aux populations souvent tourmentées et effrayées (pensons par exemple au racket imposé aux commerçants et aux entreprises de constructions, d’exploitation agricole), et alimente l’espoir d’une possible libération. La lutte contre les organisations criminelles est longue et difficile, mais si elle est mené avec détermination sur plusieurs fronts, avec la collaboration et la coordination des moyens répressifs des États et de leurs gouvernements, les succès ne pourront pas manquerFor quite a few years now, a particularly dangerous and unsettling phenomenon has been spreading and extending in various degrees throughout all the regions, and that phenomenon is organized crime. In order to check (limit) its spread and guarantee the protection of the population, a crime prevention policy has been imposed. To such an end, numerous legislative provisions have been adopted on both the national and international level. The European and international community have repeatedly intervened in the last years to fight against organized crime, beginning with the Treaty of Maastricht, the Council of Tampere, up to the recent Essay in Lisbon. These treaties have allowed for the adoption of important measures to fight against organized crime, and one should not overlook the Convention of the United Nations and the Convention of May 29, 2000 (in doing the same). Bilateral accords have been stipulated from both France and Italy to more effectively oppose this danger and social evil that threatens with infecting, if it has not already done so, the organs of modern societies (for example; Public Administration, banks (the control of which is necessary in order to recycle dirty money). France, with the approval of the Perben II Law of March 9, 2004 intended to bring up to date the tools of justice in order to make them more incisive in relationship to the evolution of criminality. Italy has done the same thing with the “safety packets” of 2009 and 2010. Furthermore, these two countries have employed many resources in order to try to reduce and limit criminality’s field of action. A fundamental role was carried out by those who collaborated with the judicial system who, by their confessions in exchange for reduced punishment, have disclosed the structure and the hierarchy of criminal associations allowing the authorities involved to better understand, individualize their affiliates (i.e. members) and, in numerous cases, to dismantle them. By contrast, a very effective measure has been and still is the confiscation of goods accumulated by (those) in organized crime (real and financial goods, that is, banking deposits, financial investments, property, land, houses) and their re-use by Public Administration for the social well-being and to the advantage of the entire community (schools, public buildings, hospitals). The forfeiture of such goods, in fact, deprives the criminal underworld the lifeblood and profits that it draws from them; it mines the structure its power, contemporaneously providing safety to the people who are often oppressed and intimidated (one needs only to think about the extortions imposed on shopkeepers, construction and agricultural enterprises) and heightens their hope of a possible liberation from the above. The struggles against criminal organizations is long and difficult, but if it is conducted with determination on more fronts, with the collaboration and the coordination of the repressive apparatuses of nations and their governments, success cannot fail

Full textAbstract:
Italy is the only country in Europe that has institutionalized a completely parallel and segregating housing system - the camp system for Roma people. These camps were created purely based on an elusive nomadic character innate to the population. Over the decades, with further migratory flows of Roma people reaching the country, conditions have only worsened, developing a system so much tethered to the Italian society that the country has even been renamed ‘Campland’. Over time, this same exclusion has been problematized, resulting in the criminalisation of Roma people, at the same time bringing to light the exceptionality of their living conditions. The first part of this study is devoted to understanding the process of discursive legitimization of said exclusion. The approach, inspired by a Foucaldian understanding, involved also grasping the dialectical relationship between discourse and social structures (Fairclough, 1992) - in this sense, it entailed situating it outside its boundaries of exceptionality and inside the broader context of wider housing exclusion affecting Italy. The aim of this thesis was thus to reconstruct both the specific condition of Roma exclusion, and the structural inequalities innate to the Italian housing regime which enabled its development. The concept of social exclusion (Levitas et al, 2007) is implemented in the study first as a way to understand the overall condition faced by Roma people, and as a way to bring forward reflections on the role of housing as one of its fundamental dimensions. The study illustrates how the implementation of the camps and its relative discourse were enabled by the constant retreat of the State from the provision of housing, and how the current institutional incapacity to solve the Roma Question is directly connected to the inability to answer the housing needs of wider segments of the population. The only proposed institutional responses, in both cases, are only ‘filler’ solutions embedded in ideas of temporality, thus failing to address the underlying problem: the structural shortage of public housing.

Taken together, researches showed that a general social context that welcomes seniors may result in individuals who live their age better and this would be true also for the elderly. In other words, a favorable life environment, both in objective and subjective and inter-subjective terms may result in elderly individuals having a better self-perception.

Full textAbstract:
The paper will provide some theoretical background about literacy (and illiteracy), the learning difficulties of illiterate adult people and methods and tips to speed and simplify the learning process. Then it will analyse the situation of literacy in the world focusing on Syria. It will go on with the cultural and socio- economic situation of Syria and the position of women in the social environment. Subsequently, a case study will be presented of a gradual development of writing and reading skills of an illiterate woman through “mini” teaching units concerning for example: the alphabet, vocals, syllables, words…
After that, the results of the study will be analysed as well as pros and cons of this teaching methods.
So to conclude, the national reference of migrant employment will be considered, as evidence that Italian language has been crucial for a good integration in the host country society and for finding a job.

Full textAbstract:
The underlying aim of this thesis is to reconsider the subject of public archaeology, as it today seems to search for new directions in which to develop, reflecting the current state of flux in archaeology. The thesis builds on a case study that investigates the relationship between local people and the excavation of the 'Villa of Augusts' in Somma Vesuviana, Italy, carried out by a team of Japanese archaeologists. The case study highlights various ways in which local people in Somma Vesuviana engaged with the archaeology of the Villa: knowing about the Villa; visiting its excavation; contextualising the Villa on the site; interpreting the Villa and the excavation project according to special interest and stake in it; associating the Villa with a local legend; talking and writing about and using the Villa, which resulted in strengthening the old/historical sense of the town; identifying with the Villa through the concept of the local; and making a value judgement of the Japanese excavation project. The results of the case study research indicate that public archaeologists should study and understand the public in detail and, at the same time, carry out outreach work and involve themselves in socio-political critiques and actions. Bearing in mind the physically intrusive nature of archaeological investigation, it is particularly important for pubic archaeologists to carry out action research on the local level, directly engaging with local people, if their work is to have a broader meaning.

COORDENAÇÃO DE APERFEIÇOAMENTO DO PESSOAL DE ENSINO SUPERIORFUNDAÇÃO DE APOIO À PESQUISA DO ESTADO DO RIO DE JANEIRO
A tese apresenta um estudo comparativo entre o Brasil e a Itália, no que se refere aos usos e apropriações que os jovens da população de baixa renda ou com poucas oportunidades de acesso, fazem da e na Internet. Com base nos pressupostos metodológicos da pesquisa qualitativa, a investigação visa compreender as mudanças provocadas pela inserção da rede no cotidiano desses jovens, considerando duas realidades distintas. Assim, em diálogo contínuo com os teóricos que estudam o tema, a tese apresenta e analisa discursos oficiais e midiáticos, dados estatísticos sobre os usos das TIC’s nos dois países, além das falas de coordenadores, mentores e usuários. Na delimitação do campo empírico, a tese faz um recorte na realidade italiana, elegendo o projeto terza área desenvolvido pelo Cremit - Centro de Pesquisa da Universidade Católica do Sagrado Coração de Milão em parceria com o Instituto Escolar Oriani Mazzini, voltado para a inclusão de estudantes com poucas oportunidades de acesso aos meios. Já no Brasil, o recorte recaí sobre as LAN houses, centros pagos de acesso à Internet, por meio das falas dos estudantes do Instituto de Educação Clélia Nanci, em São Gonçalo, Rio de Janeiro, todos na condição de usuários freqüentes das LANs, fenômeno que perpassa as diferentes classes sociais, mas são locais preferidos para o acesso à Internet entre a população menos favorecida. Nesse sentido, é introduzida a questão da desigualdade de acesso, da divisão digital, da construção da cidadania e da democracia, além do papel da educação nesse contexto. As contribuições significativas estão na reflexão crítica sobre a questão do acesso e nos questionamentos sobre a divisão digital, tanto no Brasil, quanto na Itália. Os resultados obtidos oferecem pistas para a articulação de projetos educativos que concebam a inclusão digital sob a ótica da inclusão social, posto que, como indicam os dados, uma não se realiza sem a outra.
The thesis presents a comparative study between Brazil and Italy, with regard to Internet uses and appropriations referred to young people of low income or with limited access opportunities. Based on the methodological assumptions of qualitative research, the research aims to understand the changes caused by the impact of Internet in young people’s of everyday life, considering two different realities. Thus, in continuous dialogue with theorists who study the subject, the thesis presents and analyzes media and official speeches, statistics on the uses of ICT in both countries, in addition to the testimonies of coordinators, mentors and users. In defining the empirical field, the thesis makes a cut in the Italian reality, choosing a project called terza area developed by Cremit - Research Center of the University of the Sacred Heart of Milan in partnership with the School Oriani Mazzini, toward the inclusion students with few opportunities for media access. In Brazil, the clip falls on LAN Houses, shopping paid Internet access, through the speeches of the students of the Institute of Education Clelia Nanci in Niteroi, Rio de Janeiro, the same condition as frequent users of LANs, a phenomenon running through the different social classes, though remaining a preferred location for Internet access among the less favored population. In this sense, we introduce the issue of unequal access, digital divide, the construction of citizenship and democracy, and the role of education in this context. The significant contributions are in critical reflection on the issue of access and questions about the digital divide, both in Brazil and in Italy. The results provide clues to the articulation of educational programs that develop digital inclusion from the perspective of social inclusion, since, as indicated by the data, one does not take place without the other.

Full textAbstract:
Giovanni Boldini's La Zingara is an image fraught with mystery. As a lesser-known artist, scholarship on him and this painting is sparse. This thesis details the innovations that Boldini exhibited as an artist working in nineteenth-century France, using the lenses of feminist and Marxist art historical readings for a new interpretation of this piece. Participating in the oppressive systems of capitalism, sexism, and prejudice, Giovanni Boldini created the image of La Zingara for personal gain. Painting a subject from a marginalized community, the Romani, Boldini benefitted from those systems. He "others"his Italian heritage and modern art developments to construct a portraiture totally unique to him and his oeuvre. While other artists worked on similar subjects at the time, Giovanni Boldini set himself apart through his updating of classic styles, drawing upon on the Christian iconography of the Byzantine tradition, the portraiture of Trecento and the Renaissance, and some ancient Roman conventions. Additionally, the artist capitalizes on the growing interest and commodification of japonisme to create a highly marketable work. Furthermore, this thesis explores issues of gender and class to acknowledge the difficult place that women have filled in the history of art. Finally, this thesis argues that Boldini deserves a greater place in the history of art.

Full textAbstract:
Cette recherche porte sur la migration antifasciste de la Ligurie à la France dans l’entre-deux-guerres et montre comment elle s’adressa en particulier vers le Sud-Est et Paris. Il ne s’agit pas d’une étude générale mais centrée sur l’expérience des gens ordinaires et des familles migrantes. Il faut contextualiser l’expression «gens ordinaires» soit du point de vue historique, soit sociale et culturelle: en examinant les caractéristiques des sujets ligures impliqués dans l’exil antifasciste, dans leur territoire d’origine, cette catégorie devient un instrument précieux au fin de sonder de l’intérieur les dynamiques de network de la société. L’étude régionale adoptée permette de suivre des réseaux transnationaux liés à une très remarquable identité de village et/ou de parti politique, ce qui représente une typique modalité migratoire transalpine qui ne s’organisait pas selon des «Little Italies», mais plutôt selon des «petits villages italiens»This research focus on antifascist migration from Liguria to France, explaining how it has been mostly toward the South-East and Paris. It doesn't target general studies: its focal point, indeed, is on common people and migrant families’ experience. The “Common people” expression must be historically, socially and culturally contextualized. By examining the topics of Ligurian subjects involved in the Interwar period exile, identified in their own original territory, the common people category becomes a precious instrument to evaluate society network dynamics from inside.The regional study allows to follow transnational networks with a strong native town or party identity, a typical Italian migration modality in France, which organized itself in “petits villages italiens” rather than the American model of “Little Italies”

Dissertação de mestrado em Ciência PolíticaThere has been a concern both in policymaking and scholarly work on youth political participation since youth voter turnout in elections showed a tendency to decline together with political party membership. Voter participation and public attitudes appear to be different among Erasmus students, with recent data showing that they had higher levels of voter turnout in European elections and significant levels of political engagement. In particular, available data shows that both in Spain and Italy, there has been a steady increase in student participation in the Erasmus Programme and higher youth voter turnout in European elections. Hence, the choice of this two Member States of the European Union (EU), which share various common characteristics, as case studies of this dissertation. Whilst the Erasmus programme role in students’ lives has been previously studied, there is still research ground to explore when it comes to political participation of students who have joined the exchange programme. Thus, the present work endeavoured to understand how the Erasmus Programme and political participation of young people has evolved in Spain and Italy between de 1980s until 2019, and the significance of such evolution. This dissertation starts by going through the history and development of the Erasmus Programme from its origins to 2019. It then provides the description of the evolution of the international exchange programme in Spain and Italy followed by how youth political participation has evolved in both countries. Finally, Chapter Four provides a comparative analysis of Spain and Italy regarding the Erasmus Programme and youth political participation. This study outlines that the global financial crisis might have pushed young people to political action expressed through protest movements. Indeed, youth in general has shown a tendency towards non-institutionalized forms of political participation and higher levels of abstention in elections. As for Erasmus students, they tend to have positive associations with the EU, higher interest in EU elections and higher voter turnout in them. Nevertheless, they do still engage in other forms of political participation, which are less institutionalized. Overall, young people have been searching for a different direction in politics and this is also noticeable in Erasmus participants who seek for more rights as EU citizens.
Tem havido uma preocupação tanto na elaboração de políticas como na elaboração de trabalhos académicos sobre a participação política dos jovens desde que a afluência às urnas dos mesmos nas eleições registou uma tendência decrescente, juntamente com a filiação em partidos políticos. A participação eleitoral e as atitudes públicas parecem ser diferentes entre os estudantes Erasmus, com dados recentes a demonstrar que estes tiveram níveis mais elevados de participação eleitoral nas eleições europeias e um envolvimento político mais significativo. Em particular, os dados disponíveis mostram que, tanto em Espanha como em Itália, tem havido um consistente aumento da participação dos estudantes no Programa Erasmus e uma maior afluência às urnas por parte destes jovens nas eleições europeias. Daqui resultou a escolha destes dois Estados-Membros da União Europeia (UE), que partilham várias características comuns, como estudos de caso desta dissertação. Embora o papel do programa Erasmus na vida dos estudantes tenha sido previamente estudado, ainda há muito para explorar no que toca à participação política dos estudantes que aderiram ao programa de intercâmbio. Assim, o presente trabalho procurou compreender como o Programa Erasmus e a participação política dos jovens evoluíram em Espanha e Itália entre 1980 e 2019, e que significado esta evolução tem. Esta dissertação começa por percorrer a história e o desenvolvimento do Programa Erasmus desde a sua origem até 2019. Em seguida, fornece a descrição da evolução do programa de intercâmbio internacional em Espanha e Itália, e de como tem sido a participação política dos jovens em ambos os países. Por fim, o Capítulo Quatro fornece uma análise comparativa entre Espanha e Itália no que diz respeito ao Programa Erasmus e à participação política dos jovens. Este estudo demonstra que a crise financeira global poderá ter pressionado os jovens na direção de uma ação política expressa através de movimentos de protesto. De facto, os jovens, em geral, têm demonstrado uma tendência para formas não institucionalizadas de participação política e níveis mais elevados de abstenção nas eleições. Quanto aos estudantes Erasmus, estes tendem a ter associações positivas com a UE, maior interesse nas eleições da UE e maior afluência às urnas. Ainda assim, dedicam-se também a outras formas menos institucionalizadas de participação política. Em geral, os jovens têm procurado uma direção diferente na política e isto também se pode verificar nos participantes Erasmus que procuram mais direitos como cidadãos da UE.

This thesis presents an opportunity to look at an important aspect of the genesis of national identity-making in the specific stateless and multicultural context from which Polish nationalism emerged. It sheds additional light on the nation-building practices of Eastern Europe, which on the level of theory have remained understudied, or still fall prey to simplification, with the Kohnian dichotomy on Western civic and Eastern ethnic nationalism being the most persistent. These prevailing perspectives strongly essentialized East European nationalisms and gave them a solely Herderian birth certificate, interpreted as the source of their negative aberration. According to these theoretical apriorisms, it is the history of the Eastern peoples which has predestined them toward ethnic, illiberal, exclusive, organic, and in a word ‘Eastern’, nationalism. The Western type, on the other hand, has always navigated towards civil, voluntaristic, liberal, inclusive and proper nationalism. These premises became the starting point for the research on typologies of nationalisms since Hans Kohn and later John Plamenatz codified them in their influential works.

Full textAbstract:
Przedmiotem rozprawy jest obraz współczesnej literatury włoskiej stworzony za pośrednictwem tłumaczeń tejże literatury na język polski zamieszczonych na łamach miesięcznika „Literatura na Świecie” w okresie 1971–1989 w Polskiej Rzeczpospolitej Ludowej. Celem pracy było zbadanie zależności między czynnikami pozatekstowymi – takimi jak uwarunkowania historyczne i ideologiczne, osoba tłumacza, medium czasopisma – a przekładem literackim, jak również analiza tekstów tłumaczeń pod kątem językowym i w efekcie wykazanie cech charakterystycznych obrazu literatury włoskiej budowanego w omawianym czasopiśmie. Pierwsza część dysertacji poświęcona jest odpowiedzi na pytanie, w jaki sposób środek przekazu, jakim było poświęcone przekładom czasopismo literackie w danym momencie historycznym wpłynął na prezentację literatury włoskiej polskiemu czytelnikowi. Odwołuję się w tym miejscu przede wszystkim do tych koncepcji w przekładoznawstwie, które doprowadziły do destabilizacji paradygmatu językoznawczego w badaniach nad przekładem i do zasadniczej redefinicji obiektu badań nauki o przekładzie; zwrot kulturowy uzasadnił badanie przekładu w szerokim kontekście zjawisk społeczno-kulturowych uwarunkowanych historycznie, jak również osoby tłumacza oraz instytucji jako czynników w istotny sposób, poprzez wybór danego dzieła, formę jego przekazu oraz ewentualne parateksty wydawnicze, wpływających na sposób prezentacji literatury obcej czytelnikowi rodzimemu. Druga część pracy skupia się na sposobie, w jaki literatura włoska prezentowana była w „Literaturze na Świecie”, ze szczególnym zwróceniem uwagi na zabiegi tekstowe i praktyki wydawnicze definiujące ostateczny obraz dzieła docierający do polskiego odbiorcy. Część trzecia, poświęcona analizie językowej warstwy tłumaczeń, metodologicznie nawiązuje w szczególności do hermeneutyki przekładu. Ponadto analiza wybranych przekładów w odwołaniu do translatologicznej koncepcji głosu tłumacza dowiodła istotnej roli osoby tłumacza, jego przyzwyczajeń językowych i wizji rzeczywistości, w procesie przekładowym.
This dissertation is devoted to the image of the contemporary Italian literature constructed in translations of this literature into Polish published in a monthly “Literatura na Świecie” in the years 1971–1989 in the People’s Republic of Poland. The aim of the monograph is the examination of the interdependence of extratextual factors – historical and ideological determinants, the person of the translator, a critical journal – and literary translation, as well as the linguistic analysis of the translated texts and, in consequence, the specification of characteristic features of the image of Italian literature created in the monthly. The first part of the dissertation aims to answer the question how the literary magazine devoted to the translations influenced the way in which Italian literature was presented to Polish readers in the given historical period. In this part I refer mainly to these concepts of translation theory that contributed to the marginalization of the linguistic paradigm in translation studies and to the general redefinition of the object of the translation studies; the cultural turn justified the type of a research in translation which pays attention to a broad socio-cultural, historically determined context and emphasized the role of the translator and institutions as factors that substantially, by means of the selection of literature, its form of adaptation and possible editorial paratexts, impact the way in which foreign literature is presented to a reader. The second part of the dissertation focuses on how Italian literature was presented in “Literatura na Świecie”, with a special attention paid to textual strategies and editorial practices that defined the final image of literary works that reached Polish readers. Theoretical framework assumed in the third part of the dissertation, devoted to the linguistic analysis of the translations, is hermeneutics of translation. What is more, the analysis of the selected translations conducted in the context of the theory that emphasizes the importance of the translator’s voice, have proved that the role of the translators, their linguistic habits and visions of reality, is very important in the translation process.
