Francis still dreams

Five years after Laudato Si’

By: Luca Fiorani

Older people are dreamers too. The Argentine Pope, leader of over a billion people, shakes hands with a girl from Sweden who has mobilised millions of young people (and many less young). Their shared dream is a world in which there is greater brotherhood and solidarity, where architects and engineers have forgotten how to design walls because now they are only asked to build bridges. They want a world in which all human activity – concerning the environment, economics, society, culture and daily life – is directed towards the common good of all people on earth and justice between generations. In a nutshell, they want a world in which “integral ecology” is applied, a key concept in Laudato Si’, Pope Francis’ encyclical letter “on care for our common home”. Knowing that not everyone has the time to read papal documents or UN reports, Luca Fiorani takes us through the key concepts in Laudato Si’, recent outcomes of international negotiations on climate change and the latest scientific data on the health of our planet.

Emerging Issues and Case Studies in Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear and Explosive Protection

By: Luca Fiorani

After the outbreak of the wars in Ukraine and Palestine, CBRNe threats are sadly back in the news. This book, based on the first-hand experience of the author, a researcher in the field, reports on recent advances in selected topics and describes current scientific case studies, focusing on the role of actors in the response to CBRNe incidents, the reaction to severe events in major cities, with special reference to immediate investigation and effective communication, and modern laser spectroscopy systems that, using quantum technology and artificial intelligence, enable the rapid and non-contact detection, identification and monitoring of chemical warfare agents and explosive precursors, even at great distances.

Turkmenistan's Foreign Policy

Positive Neutrality and the consolidation of the Turkmen Regime

By: Luca Anceschi

Turkmenistan, an independent nation since 1991, is a strategically important Central Asian state. This book covers the most significant period of the establishment of the Turkmen political regime. At the core of this book is the Doctrine of Positive Neutrality, which, from 1995 onwards, constituted the theoretical backbone for the foreign policy of post-Soviet Turkmenistan. The author analyses the reason and aim of the concept, its significance for and impact on the country’s domestic and foreign relations, its practical implementation and its transformation into a tool of strengthening of absolute personal authority. Furthermore, he establishes whether Positive Neutrality has to be seen as a ‘domestic-oriented’ foreign policy, which has been used by the Turkmen regime to reinforce its internal position. . This is the first book-length and thorough analysis of Turkmenistan’s foreign policy. It furthers our understanding of Turkmenistan, and provides an informed background for the study of its foreign policy. It fills a void in the current literature, and it will constitute an essential reference for most scholars and researcher focusing on contemporary Central Asia, Russian foreign policy, Foreign Policy, International Relations and Comparative Politics.

Behind the Scenes

Avant-garde Techniques of Contemporary Design

By: Francesco De Luca,Marco Nardini

Information technology has brought about a radical change in architectural design. The sketches and plans of yesterday have been transformed by CAD. In this book the authors cast a glance behind the scenes to provide a systematic overview of the tools and technical processes which are now an integral part of today ́s design methods. The most important digital tools are presented, the principal steps are analysed, and the essential concepts are explained. The theoretical information is vividly illustrated by a selection of examples from the world of architecture. A concise and accessible introduction to electronic designing, this book makes the subject easily comprehensible to all who are new to the field, and for those who already involved in digital designing it is a useful recapitulation and orientation.

Blurred Nationalities across the North Atlantic

Traders, Priests, and Their Kin Travelling between North America and the Italian Peninsula, 1763–1846

By: Luca Codignola

Long before the mid-nineteenth century, thousands of people were frequently moving between North America – specifically, the United States and British North America – and Leghorn, Genoa, Naples, Rome, Sicily, Piedmont, Lombardy, Venice, and Trieste. Predominantly traders, sailors, transient workers, Catholic priests, and seminarians, this group relied on the exchange of goods across the Atlantic to solidify transatlantic relations; during this period, stories about the New World passed between travellers through word of mouth and letter writing. Blurred Nationalities across the North Atlantic challenges the idea that national origin – for instance, Italianness – constitutes the only significant feature of a group’s identity, revealing instead the multifaceted personalities of the people involved in these exchanges.

Impossible

By: Erri De Luca

À mon âge, la prison prive de peu. Une peine appropriée serait de retirer les montagnes de mon passé, de les effacer de mes mains, de ma respiration. Mais elles sont en sécurité dans la soute de mes sens. Votre pouvoir sur moi se limite au petit présent. ' Sur un sentier escarpé des Dolomites, un homme chute dans le vide. Derrière lui, un autre homme donne l’alerte. Or, ce ne sont pas des inconnus. Compagnons du même groupe révolutionnaire quarante ans plus tôt, le premier avait livré le second et tous ses anciens camarades à la police. Tragique coïncidence ou crime prémédité ? À travers l’interrogatoire par un jeune juge d’un accusé deux fois plus âgé, ce roman d’une grande tension fait se confronter deux visions de la justice et de l’engagement.
