From Warlords to Statelords

Armed Groups and Power Trajectories in Libya and Yemen

By: Eleonora Ardemagni,Federica Saini Fasanotti

In Libya and Yemen armed groups play a central role. Pervading weak and contested institutions, they have gradually brought their webs of survival, profit and governance under the state umbrella: warlords have become the new lords of the state. Armed groups control most of the energy revenues, critical infrastructure, smuggling and illicit trafficking. Their leaders are multifaceted: they are simultaneously military commanders, tribal chiefs, politicians and businessmen. Combining comparative analysis and case studies, this Report sheds light on the "economic face" of the armed groups and their power trajectories. How do armed groups build networks of profit and loyalty in the territories they hold? How does clientelism mark a continuity trend with former authoritarian regimes?

The Life of Lady Johanna Eleonora Petersen, Written by Herself

Pietism and Women's Autobiography in Seventeenth-Century Germany

By: Johanna Eleonora Petersen

In a time when the Pauline dictum decreed that women be silent in matters of the Church, Johanna Eleonora Petersen (1644–1724) was a pioneering author of religious books, insisting on her right to speak out as a believer above her male counterparts. Publishing her readings of the Gospels and the Book of Revelation as well as her thoughts on theology in general, Petersen and her writings created controversy, especially in orthodox circles, and she became a voice for the radical Pietists—those most at odds with Lutheran ministers and their teachings. But she defended her lay religious calling and ultimately printed fourteen original works, including her autobiography, the first of its kind written by a woman in Germany—all in an age in which most women were unable to read or write. Collected in The Life of Lady Johanna Eleonora Petersen are Petersen's autobiography and two shorter tracts that would become models of Pietistic devotional writing. A record of the status and contribution of women in the early Protestant church, this collection will be indispensable reading for scholars of seventeenth-century German religious and social history.

Frontiers of Sound in Design

A Guide for the Development of Product Identity Through Sounds

By: Doriana Dal Palù,Claudia De Giorgi,Beatrice Lerma,Eleonora Buiatti

This book serves as a guide to developing and designing the right sound to enhance a product’s identity, its use, its affordance and its acceptance by consumers. It is of interest to designers, researchers, R&D departments, marketing experts and industries involved in the exploration of the new frontiers now offered by sound. We are all immersed in an intangible world of sounds; however, the fact that only an infinitesimal part of the sound to which we are exposed has been wittingly created is often ignored. An interdisciplinary and trans-disciplinary approach encompassing design methods and design engineering, psychology and cognitive ergonomics, acoustics and psychoacoustics contributes to the improvement of product sound development. Providing readers with an overview of design methods in which sound becomes a new requirement, the book investigates the role of sound from the consumer viewpoint, presents several tools and practical examples of sensory design tools and projects, and lastly, introduces a new tool and method developed expressly to support the design of product sound.

Revisiting and Revising the Fifties in Contemporary US Popular Culture

Revisiting and Revising the Fifties in Contemporary US Popular Culture

Self-Reflexivity, Melodrama, and Nostalgia in Film and Television

By: Eleonora Ravizza

In this book, Eleonora Ravizza analyzes how contemporary American popular culture has represented and reproduced the fifties. By investigating the cultural work of films and TV series from the last two decades, the book uncovers the inherent limitations of a ‘revisionist’ take on the fifties. Ravizza argues that, due to the visual nature of the fifties—crystallized in American consciousness through the widespread influence of television—most contemporary attempts to rework and rewrite the regressive gender, queer, and racial politics fall short of such a revisionist reevaluation.

Follow My Dream

The True Story of Peppino John Volpe

Follow My Dream

The True Story of Peppino John Volpe

By: Eleonora Borghesani

This is a true story, rich in suspense, passion, violence, intrigue, pain and poetry. It is the tale of a whole generation told through the real life experiences of one man and his family. It is a journey into the traditions of an Italy which has now disappeared, but which was throbbing with colours, flavours and smells made more intense by the contrasts encountered in a new world: Australia, a land made up of both challenges and promises. It is a warning to both the old and the new generations not to forget how we were and what we have become. A poor boy abandons the olive fields of Calabria and embarks on a journey by ship, holding a cardboard suitcase and a basket full of lemons in his hand. He starts working when he is thirteen and a half years of age. He becomes a young man among the skyscrapers of Melbourne with his head full of dreams and his fists clenched, dealing out blows in clandestine boxing matches. He hasn’t studied, and he doesn’t speak either Italian or English well, but he knows how to bluff. And he has courage enough to discover that the world doesn’t end behind the mountain, as he used to believe when he was a little boy. Only having crossed an ocean full of uncertainty was he able to become aware of his own convictions and build his own future. “For me, coming to Victoria has been my victory. Never stop dreaming big: when you lose everything you are finally free to do anything you want.” John Volpe’s life story was written by Eleonora Borghesani.

Relational Competence Theory

Research and Mental Health Applications

By: Luciano L'Abate,Mario Cusinato,Eleonora Maino,Walter Colesso,Claudia Scilletta

Relational competence—the set of traits that allow people to interact with each other effectively—enjoys a long history of being recorded, studied, and analyzed. Accordingly, Relational Competence Theory (RCT) complements theories that treat individuals’ personality and functioning individually by placing the individual into full family and social context. The ambitious volume Relational Competence Theory: Research and Mental Health Applications opens out the RCT literature with emphasis on its applicability to interventions, and updates the state of research on RCT, examining what is robust and verifiable both in the lab and the clinic. The authors begin with the conceptual and empirical bases for the theory, and sixteen models demonstrate the range of RCT concerns and their clinical relevance, including: - Socialization settings for relational competence. - The ability to control and regulate the self. - Relationship styles. - Intimacy and negotiation. - The use of practice exercises in prevention and treatment of pathology. - Appendices featuring the Relational Answers Questionnaire and other helpful tools. Relational Competence Theory both challenges and confirms much of what we know about the range of human relationships, and is important reading for researchers, scholars, and students in personality and social psychology, psychotherapy, and couple and family counseling.

Technology and Innovation for Marketing

By: Eleonora Pantano,Clara Bassano,Constantinos-Vasilios Priporas

Marketers have recently witnessed an explosion of technology-based innovation that has profoundly affected their management and strategy. This technology can be a gift – enabling them to get closer to their customers and their needs – or a poisoned chalice, should they fail to keep up with technology innovation and find themselves, or their products, irrelevant. In this book, Eleonora Pantano, Clara Bassano and Constantinos-Vasilios Priporas describe this phenomenon as the 'consumer pull vs technology push' that forces marketing strategists to innovate to survive and thrive. It is a guide to the emerging approaches to marketing prompted by the impact of innovation and technology, in order to help students, scholars and practitioners work innovation and change to their best advantage. Including a wealth of empirical and theoretical contributions, models, approaches methods, tools and case studies, this book is essential reading for marketing strategy, digital marketing, and innovation students, as well as marketing practitioners.

The Tangle of Science

Reliability Beyond Method, Rigour, and Objectivity

Science is remarkably reliable. It puts people on the moon, performs laser eye surgery, tells us about ancient civilizations and species, and predicts the future of our climate. What underwrites this reliability? This book argues that the standard answers--the scientific method, rigour, and objectivity--are insufficient for the job. Here we propose a new model of science which places its products front and centre. In The Tangle of Science we show how any reliable piece of science is underpinned by a vast, diverse, and thick network of other scientific products. In doing so we bring back into focus areas of science that have been long neglected, emphasizing how every product, from the screws that hold the space shuttle together, to ways of measuring the consumer price index, to Einstein's theory of general relativity, work together to support results we can trust.

She-Wolf

By: Eleonora Bulz

Since she was a little girl she learned to believe in animals` instinct. Early in the morning the SheWolf came to her door yelping continuously, pulling her dress, pushing her out with the jaw. It was spring, but here on top of the mountain, the nature revived much later. The earth was still frozen, big patches of snow could be seen everywhere. Cold was penetrating bones.
