Towards a Territorial Multi-Disaster Buildings’ Resistance Certification

By: Daniele Fabrizio Bignami

Disaster risk is increasing, not only in number of events, but also in incurred losses. Such increases are being driven also by the growing exposure of assets, due to the rapid urban growth, because vulnerability decreases as countries develop, but not enough to compensate. The situation will be more and more critical, due to the growth of the amount of the building stock. Thus we need new initiatives to foster upgrading of existing building and enhancement of land planning strategies. “Safe Home” scheme is aimed at increasing urban safety requirements against hazards under an advanced labeling approach. It provides a quantitative evaluation of building performance through an objective, reproducible approach, assessing risks at a land, urban and building scale. Aim of this rating system is to result in useful information to different users, like land planning decision makers, owners, purchasers, tenants or property and real estate managers.

Populists in Power

By: Daniele Albertazzi,Duncan McDonnell

The main area of sustained populist growth in recent decades has been Western Europe, where populist parties have not only endured longer than expected, but have increasingly begun to enter government. Focusing on three high-profile cases in Italy and Switzerland – the Popolo della Libertà (PDL), Lega Nord (LN) and Schweizerische Volkspartei (SVP) – Populists in Power is the first in-depth comparative study to examine whether these parties are indeed doomed to failure in office as many commentators have claimed. Albertazzi and McDonnell’s findings run contrary to much of the received wisdom. Based on extensive original research and fieldwork, they show that populist parties can be built to last, can achieve key policy victories and can survive the experience of government, without losing the support of either the voters or those within their parties. Contributing a new perspective to studies in populist politics, Populists in Power is essential reading for undergraduate and postgraduate students, as well as scholars interested in modern government, parties and politics.

Microwave Analysis of Unconventional Superconductors with Coplanar-Resonator Techniques

By: Gianluca Ghigo,Daniele Torsello

This book provides a thorough overview of methods and approaches to the experimental characterization of superconductors at microwave frequencies, and includes a detailed description of the two main techniques, both based on the use of coplanar waveguide resonators, that the authors employed to investigate the properties of unconventional superconductors. In the second part several case studies are described, covering a large spectrum of materials and issues. Particular emphasis is given to recent hot topics concerning iron-based superconductors, both of fundamental nature and relevant for applications. The book is intended as a learning tool for researchers in the field, and serves as a guide providing inspiring examples of the use of coplanar resonator techniques to address key topics in the field of unconventional superconductivity.

Italian Science Fiction

The Other in Literature and Film

By: Simone Brioni,Daniele Comberiati

This book explores Italian science fiction from 1861, the year of Italy’s unification, to the present day, focusing on how this genre helped shape notions of Otherness and Normalness. In particular, Italian Science Fiction draws upon critical race studies, postcolonial theory, and feminist studies to explore how migration, colonialism, multiculturalism, and racism have been represented in genre film and literature. Topics include the role of science fiction in constructing a national identity; the representation and self-representation of “alien” immigrants in Italy; the creation of internal “Others,” such as southerners and Roma; the intersections of gender and race discrimination; and Italian science fiction’s transnational dialogue with foreign science fiction. This book reveals that though it is arguably a minor genre in Italy, science fiction offers an innovative interpretive angle for rethinking Italian history and imagining future change in Italian society.

I ? PDZ - I Love Piani di Zona. Microeconomie in cerca di città

By: Daniele Mancini

Questa pubblicazione contiene i progetti elaborati con gli studenti del Laboratorio di Progettazione Architettonica ed urbana IV che ho tenuto presso la Facoltà di Architettura di Roma La Sapienza durante il semestre invernale 2010/11.Il laboratorio è stato intitolato ""I ♥ PdZ // I Love Piani di Zona". Il tema d'anno ha riguardato progetti e strategie di riqualificazione urbana nei quartieri 167 della periferia romana che hanno cercato di "dare spazi e architetture" alle (in)espresse potenzialità delle comunità locali attivate dalle amministrazioni comunali tramite processi microeconomici ed auto organizzativi.Il sottotitolo che abbiamo scelto è stato "Microeconomie in cerca di Città " sottintendendo appunto la sfida che l'architettura si deve porre nell'interpretare le richieste di nuove e vecchie comunità in trasformazioni alla ricerca di più efficienti ed equi modelli di sostenibilità nel mondo in crisi di oggi.

Human Rights and Emerging Technologies

Analysis and Perspectives in Europe

By: Daniele Ruggiu

What is the state of current European governance on new and emerging technologies, and where is it going? What is, and what can be, the role of human rights in governance arrangements? These are the main questions that this book answers for both European and non-European scholars. It provides a wide picture of current European governance, notably in biotechnology, nanotechnology and synthetic biology, and discusses the model of Responsible Research and Innovation, which is gaining popularity within the European Union, under a human rights perspective. It shows how human rights can contribute to governance frameworks without posing obstacles to research and innovation. The theory presented in the book is followed by practical guidelines drawn from human rights law. Starting from the Strasbourg Court jurisprudence, it provides a complete review of the wide range of rights that the European Convention on Human Rights protects in light of the challenges of techno-scientific advances. This analysis will come in handy for private actors, policymakers, regulators, as well as judges in solving hard cases raised by techno-scientific progress in the future.

SARS-CoV-2 Spike Protein Convergent Evolution

Impact of Virus Variants on Efficacy of COVID-19 Therapeutics and Vaccines

By: Daniele Focosi

This book reviews the current knowledge of the globally circulating SARS-CoV-2 variants, highlights their distinct genetic characteristics and associated conformational changes in the viral spike protein, and profoundly discusses the mechanisms of convergent evolution that led to the rise of these mutated strains at different geographic regions during the Covid-19 pandemic. Furthermore, the book explores how these variants do and may impact the efficacy of established neutralizing antibody-based (nAb) vaccines and therapeutics by analysing latest in vivo and in vitro clinical data. Finally, the author discusses ways on how nAb Covid-19 treatment derived immune escape of SARS-CoV-2 could be minimized in the future.

I giocatori siciliani 1500-1975

By: Santo Daniele Spina

Questo libro nasce dall'idea di fornire sia ai lettori appassionati di storia degli scacchi sia agli studiosi specialisti uno strumento di consultazione rapido ed efficace, vale a dire un indice bio-bibliografico degli scacchisti attivi in Sicilia dal 1500 fino al 1975. La chiave che ho privilegiato è l'attività scacchistica documentata in tale ambito geografico a prescindere dal luogo di nascita dello scacchista. Per questo criterio si spiega la presenza di scacchisti sia siciliani, sia italiani ma non siciliani, sia stranieri ma residenti per un certo arco di tempo o in modo permanente in Sicilia.

American Divergences in the Great Recession

By: Daniele Pompejano

Globalization is quite different from internationalization: the by-now global market economy overwhelmed the sovereignty of the old national states. Close to the 2007 crisis, some de-coupling effects were consequent in most developed countries in comparison with the ex-Third World. Latin America seemed to entail a "divergence" with the First World, as unlike the past, it was not hit by the financial crisis, but old historical fragilities invalidated the short positive cycle produced by high international prices. This work deals with this crisis and its basic differences from the older crises of the Thirties and Seventies.

Fiscal Policy in Economic and Monetary Union

Theory, Evidence, and Institutions

By: Marco Buti,Daniele Franco

The book has many merits, and represents an important contribution to the controversial topic of European fiscal policy. I appreciated in particular the high quality and rigor of the analysis and the fact that the pros and cons of the contending opinions are presented in a fair way. It is a rewarding reading. EAEPE Newsletter Buti and Franco present a series of interesting analytical information which should be read by as broad an audience as possible. . . the book is a good buy. László Csaba, Acta Oeconomica This book explores the origins, rationale, problems and prospects of the European fiscal policy framework. It provides the reader with a roadmap to EMU s budgetary framework by exploring its theoretical and empirical foundations, uncovering its historical roots and emphasising its supranational nature. The authors, who have been at the forefront of the academic and policy debate on economic policy in Europe, argue that fiscal policy has always been at the core of the EMU debate. The Maastricht criteria and the Stability and Growth Pact are the most contentious building blocks of EMU s institutional architecture: they have aroused heated controversies between academics and policymakers ever since their adoption. As EMU s budgetary rules undergo their first severe shock, Europe is still searching for its fiscal soul. The book s basic premise is that one cannot fully understand EMU s fiscal framework and the recent debate on its reform without placing them in a historical and institutional perspective and abstracting from the uniqueness of EMU, where sovereign countries retain a large degree of fiscal independence, and monetary policy is entrusted to an independent central bank with the overriding mission of maintaining price stability. Analysing all aspects of EMU s fiscal rules and institutions, this book will strongly appeal to students, academics and researchers of macroeconomic policy and European integration. Policymakers and fiscal policy experts at both national and international levels will also find the book to be of great interest.

Public Services and EU Competition Law

The Social Market Economy in Action

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Public Services and EU Competition Law

The Social Market Economy in Action

By: Daniele Gallo

This monograph, which was also designed as a short reference book for specialized undergraduate and graduate courses on EU law, intends to shed light on, and legally frame, the evolution of the doctrine of services of general economic interest (SGEIs). The book emphasizes the pivotal role played by SGEIs in striking a fair balance between market and social objectives. To this end, the book claims, first of all, that SGEIs have a dual nature inasmuch as they act as a limitation to/derogation from the free market and, simultaneously, as a value and positive obligation addressed at national authorities, undertakings, and EU institutions. The EU notions of access to public services and universal service are the clearest signal of such phenomenon. Secondly, the book claims that the transfer of competences from the Union to the Member States and the reaffirmation of Member States’ sovereignty in crucial sectors of the economy are not the only solutions to foster social rights. In fact, this narrative is apt to undermine the foundations, spirit, and purpose of the process of European integration, especially at a time like the present, when new forms of populism and anti-Europeanism are on the rise, and when a European response is imperative to counter the spread of the coronavirus in European countries. The book concludes that SGEIs’ regulation is an area of law where the EU institutions have generally successfully put into action and consolidated the social market economy principles on which the EU was founded. This is even further proof that the EU is not merely the reflection of interests linked to market completion, but also and foremost a ‘Community based on the rule of law’. The book will be a valuable resource for academics and researchers in EU Law, European Public Law and EU competition law.

Gli scacchi a Catania e provincia alla fine dell’Ottocento

By: Santo Daniele Spina

Il percorso della mostra Gli scacchi a Catania e provincia alla fine dell'Ottocento parte dall'illustrazione dell'attività scacchistica del sacerdote don Pietro Carrera, autore del trattato del 1617. Poi si passa alle notizie relative alla fondazione del Circolo Scacchistico Catanese sullo scorcio del 1895 e agli scacchisti catanesi dell'Ottocento: avvocati, professori, commercianti, banchieri, farmacisti, floricoltori. Pare che dalla Torre Alessi, opera del Sada demolita nel maggio del 1963, si giocasse a scacchi "per corrispondenza" tramite piccioni viaggiatori. Il Prof. Santo Daniele Spina, ideatore e curatore della mostra, ha utilizzato il gioco degli scacchi al fine della ricostruzione storica dello sfondo culturale cittadino che sottintende il gioco dei Re e con tale chiave di lettura ha gettato luce su due categorie sociali: nobiltà e alta-borghesia attive a Catania e provincia alla fine dell'Ottocento.

La Moneta dell'Utopia

By: Daniele Pace

Nella crisi attuale tutti i politici avanzano l'ostacolo della reperibilità dei fondi e del pagamento dei debiti, mentre i cittadini chiedono costi dello Stato e sprechi minori. Ma a guardare bene, quelli che chiamiamo costi sono in realtà misurazioni della ricchezza prodotta e sembra illogico che un'unità di misura crei un debito. Questo libro è diviso in cinque parti. Dopo aver riassunto la storia e il funzionamento della moneta nelle prime due parti, nella terza l'autore affronta la questione fondamentale: la definizione giuridica del professor Auriti, e propone un ampliamento applicabile alla Moneta dell'Utopia. La quarta parte parla della moneta canadese di Paul Grignon per risolvere il problema nella quinta parte, con una proposta del tutto innovativa: una nuova forma moneta unica globale di proprietà del portatore, senza debito ed auto-emessa da 7 miliardi di emettitori senza alcun potere centrale a governarla. L'autore, autodidatta, descrive e divulga la sua visione/proposta per la moneta del futuro.

PharmaCare 2018

[Italiano]: Il farmaco, nella sua accezione più ampia e generale, può essere ritenuto un bene sociale, la cui valenza simbolica e curativa varia in relazione alla dimensione ambientale e culturale nel quale si inserisce. In tal senso, le prescrizioni farmaceutiche rappresentano un indicatore privilegiato per la conoscenza del sistema salute di un determinato territorio, poiché costituiscono un punto di intersezione ideale tra la prospettiva medica e quella di mercato. Siffatte considerazioni hanno sollecitato l’elaborazione di questo Report che si pone, come obiettivi dichiarati, quello di essere uno strumento utile alla pianificazione di interventi di sanità pubblica, quanto quello di svolgere analisi approfondite sulle caratteristiche dei soggetti che usano i farmaci e sulle modalità di trattamento degli stessi, permettendo studi di appropriatezza prescrittiva su specifiche aree di rilevanza clinica e su specifiche coorti di soggetti. “PharmaCaRe Report 2018” è stato realizzato dal CIRFF (Centro Interdipartimentale di Ricerca in Farmacoeconomia e Farmacoutilizzazione) dell’Università degli Studi di Napoli Federico II, in collaborazione con la Direzione Generale della Tutela della Salute della Regione Campania, per delineare un quadro dettagliato circa il consumo e la prescrizione dei farmaci in Campania nel 2018. Questo Report intende infatti fornire una fotografia dettagliata dell’utilizzo che, in Campania, viene fatto dei farmaci in termini di spesa, volumi e tipologia. Le analisi dei dati prodotte offrono spunti importanti per correlare la prevalenza delle patologie nel territorio con il corrispondente utilizzo dei farmaci e suggeriscono un’interpretazione dei principali fattori che influenzano la variabilità nella prescrizione. La disponibilità di una banca dati che copre una popolazione assistibile di circa sei milioni di abitanti è d’altronde un potente strumento di ricerca per studiare gli effetti dell’utilizzo dei farmaci in condizioni di Real-World. La conoscenza delle dinamiche prescrittive, in termini qualitativi (appropriatezza d’uso), oltre che quantitativi (volumi di utilizzo) è la condizione necessaria per inquadrare in un contesto razionale la politica del farmaco, anche sotto il profilo della valutazione degli effetti degli interventi che il mercato, le normative o la cultura del farmaco sviluppano nel tempo. Per tali ragioni, “PharmaCaRe Report 2018” rappresenta un utile quanto prezioso supporto ai decisori per individuare strategie volte a ottimizzare l’allocazione delle risorse, nonché migliorare i percorsi di cura attraverso un monitoraggio costante, la promozione di più elevati standard di cura e l’uso sicuro, efficiente ed efficace dei farmaci ./[English]: In its broadest and most general sense, the drug can be considered a public resource, whose symbolic and curative value varies in relation to the environmental and cultural dimension in which it is embedded. In this sense, pharmaceutical prescriptions represent a privileged indicator for the knowledge of the health system of a given territory, since they constitute an ideal intersection point between the medical and the market perspective. Such considerations prompted the preparation of this Report. “PharmaCaRe Report 2018” has been produced by CIRFF (Centro Interdipartimentale di Ricerca in Farmacoeconomia e Farmacoutilizzazione) of the Federico II University of Naples, in collaboration with the Directorate-General for Health Protection of the Campania Region, to provide a detailed overview of the pharmaceutical consumption and prescriptions in Campania in 2018. This Report aims to provide a detailed picture of the use of medicines in the general population in Campania, in terms of expenditure, volumes and type. The analyses of the data produced offer important clues for correlating the prevalence of diseases in this area with the respective use of medicines and suggest an interpretation of the main factors influencing prescriptions' variability. The availability of a database covering a patient population of around six million is a powerful research tool for studying the effects of drug use in Real-World conditions. Knowledge of the dynamics of prescription, in qualitative terms (appropriateness of use), as well as quantitative (volumes of use) is the necessary condition to frame the drug policy in a rational context, also in terms of evaluating the effects of the interventions that the market, regulations or drug culture develop over time. For these reasons, “PharmaCaRe Report 2018” represents a useful and valuable tool for political decision-makers in identifying strategies aimed at optimizing the allocation of resources, as well as improving care pathways through constant monitoring, the promotion of higher standards of care and safe, efficient and effective use of drugs.
