"La fine del mondo civile": reazioni ai bombardamenti sulla Germania 1945-1949
Authors: Easingwood Ruth
Published: June 2021

Responses to the bombing of Germany 1945-1949 Personal testimonies constitute an unexplored dimension in the debate on bombing. As these testimonies were organized around a particular moment, or moments, they reflect the intense feeling aroused by the sight of such overwhelming devastation. The narratives recorded in the British Zone between 1945 and 1947 reinforce those communicated to me years later and serve to contextualize those memories by providing them with a chronological frame of reference. In this way British women are linked across time by the common experience of bearing witness to the bomb damage and the sense of awe this engendered in them.
La sinistra e la destra nella Francia politica
Authors: Duclert Vincent
Published: June 2021

The recent presidential elections in 2012 have shown that left-right cleavage was still dominant in France. The redistribution of political forces, strongly awaited by the center (but also by the extremes) did not take place. At the same time, the major issues, such the European unification, the future of the nation, the future of the Republic, the role of the state, continue to cross left and right fields, revealing other cleavages that meet other historical or philosophical contingencies. However, the left-right opposition in France structured contemporary political life, organizing political families, determining the meaning and practice of institutions. Thence, the question is to understand what defines these two political fields and what history brings to their knowledge since the French Revolution, or they are implemented
Destra e sinistra in Croazia: una dicotomia possibile?
Authors: Costantini Emanuela
Published: June 2021

The designations of left and right assumed different meanings in Croatia during the Twentieth century. Before the Second World War the national problem was a focal point in Croatian politics. It cut across the political system since it was the focus of action of very different parties. Issues traditionally identifying right and left, such as social action or ideology, emerged very slowly only in the Twenties. In the Communist period right and left were not present in Croatia as alternative political parties, but the use of the two categories was very important for Communist regime. Its self-representation as the left implied rejecting everything that was considered right. In a way, right and left were nevertheless present within the Communist Party, as a reformist wing conflicted with the old group in power. The breaking up of Yugoslavia was accompanied by the creation of a multiparty system in Croatia. At that time, a competition between left and right seemed possible. Given the regional conflicts Croatia was involved in, the national issue became central again. While the left tried to show its difference from the past by adopting Western patterns, the right brought back old values and almost exclusively focused on the national issue. The war deeply influenced Croatia's transition to a multiparty system, turning it into a de facto blocked political structure. Things were to change only after the death of the cumbersome Croatian President Tudjman in 1999.
Catene d'oro, sangue e amore: famiglie migranti e vita economica tra dimensione locale e transnazionale
Authors: Bonizzoni Paola
Published: June 2021

- The aim of this paper is to analyze the economic and solidarity practices that characterize immigrant family life. Immigrants' intimate relationships often extend beyond Italy, and their life course trajectories, constellated by (more or less prolonged) separations and progressive reunifications, pose a challenge to conventional frameworks regarding family exchanges, circuits of help and consumption patterns. Choices such as building a house or raising children, are often made on a transnational basis, considering both sending and receiving context's resources, limits and constraints. At the same time, re-locating family ties it's not an immediate choice nor an easy process, and the "myth of return" often shapes immigrant's imaginated future and hopes, after many years spent away from their home country. Drawing on interviews realized with immigrant parents and teens, we are going to unfold the peculiarity of their experiences, rediscussing some of the more commonly used assumptions concerning the amount, the logics and the directions of family members' economic exchanges and responsibilities, especially in terms of gender and generations.

Britishness e la composita natura del luogo: musica e identitŕ nazionale in Gran Bretagna tra locale e globale
Authors: Midolo Elena Dominique
Published: June 2021

- Since the early twentieth century, British society has been touched by several immigration waves from the peripheries of the former empire that carried rich, albeit contested, cultural legacies. The process had a profound effect on the character of a whole nation. The presence, the life and the survival of diasporic cultures - linked to the place of origin thanks to material as well as symbolic connections - together with the progressive process of settlement - generation after generation - are challenging the traditional notion of Britishness. Cultural consumption analysis is the tool that allows us to consider the new state of the nation, through the analysis of the consumption habits of popular music material. What are the traits of British musical production and consumption? Is there such a thing at all? How does it sound and what are its poetics? What kind of British culture does it represent? What role has traditional ethnic music played in the reconfiguration of the current British music scene? What kind of Britishness does it express? Can music effectively articulate belongingness? Our argument is that the connection between place, locality and listeners is crucial. Nonetheless it is important to read it through the local-global nexus. In order to do so, our perspective will be bifocal: from one side we will consider space and place as locally situated and defined, but also as the site of globalising tensions in a constant dialogue of mutual influences. Within this context, popular music - with its different genres - it's a crucial cultural tool, both in the production process, and in the consumption process: it offers a platform for tackling down and articulating identity issues, such as ethnicity, belongingness and Britishness. The article offers a map of soundscapes of contemporary multiethnic Britain in the local-global nexus.

Keywords Britishness, place and identity, ethnicity, diaspora, multiethnic Britain, popular music consumption.
School mix e distribuzione degli alunni immigrati nelle scuole italiane
Authors: Santerini Milena
Published: June 2021

- The way immigrant students are distributed in the Italian schools appears unequal, both at regional and at local level, and also in the single schools and classes. The article reflects upon the consequences of such phenomenon and on the strategies to be carried out in order to prevent the building of "separate classes", mostly attended by students whose citizenship is not Italian. The article takes into account the ways distribution is carried out in several European countries - and in particular the case of the carte scolaire in France -, analising the policies of orientation of enrolments and the risks of school apartheid. For what concerns Italy - where there is a variety of situations because of the liberalisation of accesses - the risk of an unequal distribution and of an -inner segregation- is confirmed, which could be emphasized by special measures in favour of immigrants. Finally, the article introduces the reasons for the school mix and the debate on the consequences of heterogeneity in class, which is linked to a greater equity but not necessarily to a lower scholastic achievement, as long as it is supported by measures of complex instruction, differentiated didactic, intercultural prospective, and a planning at local level based on the pact between school and territory.

Giovani, gruppi e pratiche culturali. Relazioni e conflitti nello spazio pubblico della periferia di Barcellona
Authors: Porzio Laura , Giliberti Luca
Published: June 2021

Nel presente articolo si propone una riflessione teorica ed etnografica sulla ‘violenza giovanile' e sulla rappresentazione sociale che se ne dŕ nello spazio pubblico della periferia di Barcellona. La riflessione nasce da uno studio sull'uso degli spazi pubblici e sulle pratiche culturali di giovani, in particolare latinoamericani, a L'Hospitalet de Llobregat, cittŕ periferica ed industriale dell'Area Metropolitana della capitale catalana. Nel testo si prende in considerazione in modo specifico il caso delle organizzazioni giovanili della strada di origine latinoamericana, denominate dai mezzi di comunicazione e dall'opinione pubblica ‘bande latine'. La nostra proposta si basa sulla de-criminalizzazione delle ‘bande' e di altri collettivi stigmatizzati per provare a lavorare con questi gruppi rispetto a valori positivi dal punto di vista educativo. Sosteniamo che siano i valori (frutto dell'habitus, nel senso dato da Bourdieu) che si situano dietro le pratiche violente e gli conferiscono validitŕ. Analizzare le pratiche violente in profonditŕ significa elaborare discorsi sui valori soggiacenti e creare un dibattito all'interno dei gruppi giovanili, che č ciň che un buon intervento sociale dovrebbe stimolare.

L'articolo approfondisce il senso di appartenenza al sikhismo e le pratiche religiose da parte dei giovani, presentando i principali risultati di una ricerca sul campo dalla quale emergono diversi modi di credere, praticare e autodefinirsi, tra cui una dinamica di etnicizzazione dell'identitŕ religiosa e una dinamica di eticizzazione dei comportamenti religiosi.
Il capitale sociale come bene relazionale. Un'applicazione della network analysis nello studio delle reti di social support degli immigrati
Authors: Bertani Michele
Published: June 2021

L'articolo ha come oggetto il tema del capitale sociale nello studio delle migrazioni. Attraverso un'analisi dei diversi approcci analitici sul tema del capitale sociale, viene esplorato il ruolo che questo par-ticolare bene relazionale puň esercitare nelle transazioni che facilitano l'azione sociale tra individui e gruppi di origine immigrata. Viene infine presentata una ricerca empirica condotta a Verona sulle reti di aiuto e sostegno degli immigrati, mediante le tecniche della network analysis, con lo scopo di valutare se le risorse relazionali che circolano all'interno di queste reti facilitano o meno i percorsi di integrazione.
Identitŕ migranti e luoghi della memoria

In questo saggio intraprendo una riflessione personale e teorica sulle complessitŕ dell'identitŕ migrante nel tentativo di darne una definizione attraverso frammenti di esperienze personali, teoria attuale sull'identitŕ migrante e, in conclusione, attraverso un diario di viaggio. Riferendomi alle immagini di cosmopolitismo presenti nella cultura contemporanea, rifletto sulle storie che emergono quando luogo e cittadinanza si intersecano. Concludo soffermandomi sul ruolo costituito dalla memoria nella formazione dell'identitŕ dei migranti e ponendo la mia identitŕ ibrida al centro della riflessione.
Trasformazioni familiari nell'esperienza migratoria ecuadoriana. Uno sguardo dal contesto di partenza
Authors: Herrera Gioconda , Carrillo Maria Cristina
Published: June 2021

Questo articolo analizza l'impatto della migrazione internazionale sulla organizzazione di genere, della gioventů e delle famiglie mi-granti in Ecuador. Propone una comprensione approfondita del con-testo di partenza, che permette di superare la dicotomia paese di ori-gine/ paese di arrivo. Inoltre cerca di mettere in discussione la dicotomia tra la disintegra-zione familiare e la stabilitŕ delle famiglie transnazionali, mostrando che la migrazione determina una serie di cambiamenti stabili e insta-bili tra le famiglie che variano in funzione di molteplici fattori. Infine, l'articolo mostra che l'impatto sulle famiglie e sulle comunitŕ non č lineare: la migrazione puň essere un forte classificatore sociale in contesti rurali molto maggiormente che nei contesti urbani.
Migrazioni e privilegi. Rappresentazioni della mobilitŕ internazionale fra le élite del Kerala, India Meridionale
Authors: Gallo Ester
Published: June 2021

Recenti studi antropologici hanno sottolineato l'importanza di sviluppare nuove prospettive d'indagine sulle élite. Questo ambito di studi č tuttavia rimasto marginale sia da un punto di vista teorico che etnografico. Nel campo degli studi Asiatici, i pochi lavori sull'argomento hanno analizzato l'emergere di una nuova classe imprenditoriale transnazionale. Minore attenzione č stata invece dedicata al rapporto fra mobilitŕ internazionale e formazione di nuove élite. L'articolo analizza tale rapporto nel contesto specifico dell'India Meridionale, focalizzandosi sul rapporto fra discorsi e pratiche di emigrazione, formazione di nuove élite e trasformazioni nelle gerarchie tradizionali.
La politica estera italiana e la Cina durante la guerra civile fra Kuomintang e comunisti (1945-1949)
Authors: Varriale Francesco
Published: June 2021

- According to the author, after the Second World War, Italy was too weak to build an autonomous foreign policy in China or to influence the conflict between Communists and Nationalists. However, Italian diplomacy, especially the Italian ambassador in China Sergio Fenoaltea, tried to have his own vision of the Chinese Civil War and to take advantage of the weakness of Italy to establish a good relationship with the Kuomintang government: China was a great power, especially at the United Nations, and it could be very important for the future of Italy. Furthermore, Fenoaltea criticized Marshall's mediation between the Communists and the Nationalists along with the American endorsement of Jiang Jieshi. From the perspective of the Italian ambassador, the USA was not able to understand the situation in China or to support a really democratic force. Finally, Italian diplomats in China tried to be equidistant between the two parties acting during the Civil War to protect the little Italian community in China and to not impair the possibility of a pacific and positive relationship with the future winner of the Civil War. Key words: Italy-China relationship, Italian foreign policy, ambassador Fenoaltea, Chinese Civil War, international politics, Communists and Kuomintang.
La represiňn franquista. La historiografěa y el debate en torno a la memoria
Authors: Molinero Carme
Published: June 2021

- In Spain the recognition of the "repressed memories" has earned a remarkable public presence since the '90s, similarly to what occurred in most of the western world. In the Spanish case the attention focused on the "memory of the defeated" in the Civil War, which had been systematically silenced during the almost forty years of dictatorship and, to a large extent, during the following two decades too. In parallel with that, in the last quarter of the century there has been an outstanding accumulation of historical knowledge on the many and complementary forms of repression. This has demonstrated the magnitude of physic violence - deaths, concentration camps, imprisonment, work exploitation - as well as legal violence - purging, fines, etc. Francoist repression was much stronger than the one practised by other New Order fascist regimes during peace time. These historical studies have also provided concrete background for movements which for many years have asked for re-cognition from the democratic institutions of victims of Francoism. Key words: Spanish Civil War, Francoist repression, Spanish Civil War historical studies, history and memory, memory public policies, physic and legal violence in Spanish Civil War.
La polětica de no intervenciňn en la guerra civil espanola
Authors: Moradiellos Enrique
Published: June 2021

- The policy of Non-Intervention agreed by all the Europeans Powers with regards to the Spanish Civil War of 1936-1939 was a serious obstacle to the war effort of the Republican Government and it was also very favourable to the Francoist side. Under the cover of the European arms embargo, Germany and Italy supported General Franco's Insurgent forces from the beginning, while the Western Democracies refused to intervene in the conflict at all. The timely arrival of Soviet help to the Republic was enough to avoid early defeat but not to obtain victory. The consequent system of aids and inhibitions was therefore a vital factor in the course and final outcome of the Spanish struggle.

Key words: Spanish civil war, Non Intervention, 1936-1939, appeasement policy, Italo-German Axis, Soviet collective security.

Parole chiave: guerra civile spagnola, non intervento, 1936-1939, politica di appeasement, Asse italo-germanica, sicurezza collettiva sovietica.
Padre Pio. Miracoli e politica nell'Italia del Novecento. In margine a una recente biografia di Sergio Luzzatto
Authors: Lesti Sante
Published: June 2021

Il 20 settembre 1918, un giovane cappuccino della provincia foggiana, padre Pio da Pietrelcina, riceveva sul proprio corpo, dopo aver recitato la messa mattutina, le stimmate della Passione di Cristo. Poco meno di un secolo piů tardi, il 16 giugno 2002, Giovanni Paolo II ne avrebbe proclamata la santitŕ, in una piazza San Pietro affollata da centinaia di migliaia di fedeli accorsi per l'affermazione della «santitŕ vissuta» piů invocata del Novecento cattolico italiano. «Alter Christus», «mistico da clinica psichiatrica», «piccolo chimico», santo e «idolo di stoppa»: l'articolo si propone, sulla scia del recente libro di Sergio Luzzatto, Padre Pio. Miracoli e politica nell'Italia del Novecento (Einaudi, Torino, 2007) di ripercorrere i momenti essenziali della biografia del frate con le stimmate nel contesto dell'Italia del XX secolo, approfondendo in particolare - anche a partire da materiali inediti - ''interazione tra l'esperienza mistica di padre Pio e l'immaginario, politico e religioso, degli italiani del suo tempo.
"Fascism as History". George L. Mosse e l'Intervista sul fascismo di Renzo De Felice
Authors: Aramini Donatello
Published: June 2021

Nella storiografia italiana il 1975 ha rappresentato un anno chiave nell'analisi del fascismo. In particolare ad animare il dibattito fu la pubblicazione dell'Intervista sul fascismo di Renzo De Felice. Il testo qui pubblicato č la recensione al volume, rimasta fino ad oggi inedita, scritta da George Mosse come ringraziamento per la stima che il biografo di Mussolini gli aveva manifestato nell'introduzione all'edizione italiana de La nazionalizzazione delle masse e come difesa del lavoro dell'amico, la cui metodologia di studio del fenomeno fascista, a dispetto delle violente critiche che stava ricevendo in Italia, appariva oramai accolta pienamente dalla storiografia internazionale. Nella recensione Mosse ribadiva come, per capire davvero il fascismo, occorresse confrontarsi con esso come aveva fatto De Felice, liberandosi dalle illusioni piů rassicuranti e guardando alla sua realtŕ storica. Pur rilevando l'esistenza di alcuni punti di disaccordo, Mosse concludeva attaccando frontalmente i denigratori di De Felice, con l'argomento che essere antifascisti nel 1975 significava studiare il fascismo alla maniera dello storico italiano. Il docu- mento aiuta a ricostruire un intenso dibattito storiografico e permette di approfondire l'intenso rapporto scientifico tra Mosse e De Felice.
La stampa politica in Libano e Siria negli anni Trenta fra sopravvivenza e formazione dell'opinione pubblica
Authors: Piras Mauro
Published: June 2021

Gli anni Trenta videro uno sviluppo senza precedenti della stampa araba periodica in Libano e Siria, nonostante gli ostacoli rappresentati, da un lato, dalla sempre piů rigida censura esercitata dalle autoritŕ, e dall'altro, dalla crisi economica, che metteva in grandi difficoltŕ un settore ancora debole. Questo saggio descrive innanzitutto la legislazione sulla stampa e la prassi repressiva seguita dalle autoritŕ per controllarne l'atteggiamento; sottolinea quindi il ruolo centrale che avevano le sovvenzioni, provenienti sia dal governo locale e dall'amministrazione francese, sia da governi stranieri o gruppi di interesse di diverso tipo, nel permettere a giornali con una diffusione estremamente limitata di far fronte alla precaria situazione politica ed economica. Illustra quindi la crescita quantitativa e qualitativa della stampa nel mandato francese, in particolare delle due capitali Beirut e Damasco, dal 1930 al 1940, per trarre infine delle conclusioni su come le strategie di sopravvivenza del giornalismo arabo incisero sulle caratteristiche peculiari della stampa siro-libanese tra le due guerre.
La partecipazione socio-politica e il consumo responsabile: tra dimensione collettiva e senso di efficacia
Authors: Volpi Federica
Published: June 2021

- Participation has been studied from different points of view. One of the possible ways to address the topic is to interrelate it with cultural consumption, con- sidering the relevance of both terms with regard to social cohesion and integration. The essay is designed to evaluate the interaction between participation and cultural consumption, leading to a definition of some citizens' groups with homogeneous features compared to both variables. Moreover, the essay aims to examine the groups' behaviour, compared with a phenomenon related to both cultural consumption and socio-political participation: responsible consumption. The groups' behaviour relative to this variable helps the understanding of some social dynamics and, above all, highlights the close relationship between a particular group (the actives) and alternative consumption behaviours. A thorough analysis of the relationship between a high degree of cultural consumption and a high degree of political participation underlines that responsible consumption is a collective action and, at the same time, finalised to and endowed with political efficacy.

Keywords: Political Consumerism, Participation, Cultural Consumption, Collective Action, Political Efficacy.
Problemi di governance. Network associativi e debolezze strutturali delle associazioni di migranti
Authors: Bassoli Matteo
Published: June 2021

The article assesses the role of civil society organisations in the governance framework. It looks at the migrant associations in Milan, their characteristics and their network to interpret the so-called crowding-out effect by autochthonous promigrant organisations in the provision of social services. The general hypothesis, building on the well-known governance literature, is that in the last decades public authorities while shifting towards more open decision making processes in other fields, did not follow the same approach for the migrant policies for specific reasons: both internal (such as political will) and external (migrant associations weaknesses). The article, using a network analysis approach, depicts the societal configuration created by the migrant associations in Milan to show that more factors are at game in the process of political isolation. Indeed, if the political support is completely absent, as typical of non-ethnicised societies, the civil society weakness has to be tracked back to three different aspects: the organisational fragilities, the geographic- based components of migrants associations and the multiple and confounding accesses that public authorities grants to migrant associations. The migrant civil society as a whole is thus isolated from public authorities unable to fully empower its constituency and to promote political activation in a context of small political opportunities structure. Nonetheless the most central actors within the migrant network are those able to actively cooperate with public institutions.
Metafora e categorizzazione. Alcune riflessioni
Authors: Bazzanella Carla
Published: June 2021

- A tradition which starts from Aristotle, through Vico, Tesauro, up to the recent interactionist an experiential approach, highlights the significance of metaphor in cognition. The power of metaphor mainly consists in its capacity to categorize what is unknown or undetermined on the grounds of partial correspondences, similarities, and analogies, by establishing associations between different domains, and by referring to body, experience, and the world. The constitutive value of metaphor (in a way, it creates the object to which it refers by categorizing it via analogies, similarity, and extensions) has been focused upon and exemplified in a wide range of domains: typically, in science, child language, and, recently, even in legal language. Fluidity of categories and flexibility of metaphor, success and break-downs of metaphorical languages, i. e. different facets of the relationship between metaphor and categorization in children and adults, will be discussed. Keywords: Analogy, Categorization, Cognition, Embodiment, Figurative language, Metaphor.
La metafora di individuo in biologia
Authors: Gagliasso Luoni Elena
Published: June 2021

- The same common name can designate different scientific objects, whose trajectories in history we can trace. Individual is an interesting case study, and a typical example of a constitutive metaphor in science. The old meaning, moving from philosophy to science, has changed along two centuries. The new meaning in population genetics is based on the difference among individuals. Thus, individual as a constitutive metaphor becomes the real epistemological engine of modern evolutionary theories. Keywords: Biological metaphors, Evolution, Population Genetics, Individual, Metaphor, Semantic change.
L'origine del linguaggio puň attendere
Authors: Ferretti Francesco
Published: June 2021

- Starting from a discussion of Sylvain Auroux's new book (L'origine des langues... 2007), the paper develops a critique of the anti-naturalistic approach to the study of language. The rejection of the quest for language origin as a theory unsusceptible to scientific empirical treatment is an aspect of the idealistic consequences of anti-naturalist positions. A survey is presented of recent literature on the subject. In our opinion, evolutionary theories, revisited from a cognitive perspective, have radically changed the terms of the debate and made naturalism a viable alternative. Keywords: Evolutionism, FOXP2, Innateness, Linguistic variation, Nature-nurture debate, Origin of language.
The View from Memetics
Authors: Chesterman Andrew
Published: June 2021

- This essay proposes a memetic view of translation, as an alternative and perhaps more fruitful way of conceptualizing the issues involved. After a brief introduction to memetics as a theory of cultural transfer, we outline its relation to genetics and then consider its relevance for Translation Studies. Particular attention is given to a recent article by Maria Tymoczko which challenges some of the traditional assumptions of Translation Studies. Can memetics offer a way to meet these challenges? The essay closes with an assessment of some of the criticisms that have been directed against memetics.

Keywords: Meme, Imitation, Cultural evolution, Transfer, Modification, Translation.

Parole chiave: Meme, Imitazione, Evoluzione culturale, Trasmissione, Modificazione, Traduzione.
Norme e natura nei Translation Studies
Authors: Malmkjaer Kirsten
Published: June 2021

- This essay highlights the theoretical tension between the concept of the norm and another notion which has recently generated interest within Translation Studies: the notion of universal. The tension between the concept of norm and the concept of universal arises because the existence of norms implies situations which allow for different kinds of behaviour, while the notion of universal in translation theory implies invariable behaviour. The essay is an attempt to establish what we mean by the terms "norm" and "universal" in Translation Studies, in order to identify the nature of "translation universals".

Keywords: Norm, Universal, Translation, Equivalence, Interference, Corpus.

Parole chiave: Norma, Universale, Traduzione, Equivalenza, Interferenza, Corpus.
Tolleranza, governamentalitŕ, depoliticizzazione. Note sulla crisi di un concetto
Authors: Fornari Emanuela
Published: June 2021

- Tolerance is a crucial albeit controversial concept in today's globalized political landscape. Following theorists such as Wendy Brown, Judith Butler, and Bonnie Honig, the author focuses on the discourse of multicultural tolerance as an index of a progressive mutation in the praxis of democratic citizenship. Whereas the discourse of tolerance seems to privatize conflicts and social relationships, hence to empty the participatory meaning of democracy as the power shared by the demos, collective practices of freedom and equality are shed into light as the corrective and counterbalance to the current depoliticization of the relation between self and other or, between a supposedly cosmopolitan Western identity and its ideologically constructed fundamentalist Other.

Keywords: Tolerance, Governmentality, Multiculturalism, Democracy, Equality, Freedom, Difference.

Parole chiave: Tolleranza, Governamentalitŕ, Multiculturalismo, Democrazia, Eguaglianza, Libertŕ, Differenza.
Il filosofo e il cineasta. Una discussione sull'immagine cinematografica
Authors: Carbone Mauro
Published: June 2021

- Image The present article focuses on two topics underlying the lecture given by Maurice Merleau-Ponty in 1945 at the Institut des Hautes Études Cinématographiques, in Paris. One is the reflection on the peculiarities of filmic expression and cinematic image; the other, the convergence between the inspiration of cinema and that of philosophy, which Merleau-Ponty sees as a significant feature of his time: a convergence which the cinema of the nouvelle vague was also to acknowledge and which Christian Metz was to confirm retrospectively. Moreover, in developing both topics, the author finds a way to interpret Merleau-Ponty's lecture as an undeclared polemical response to Henri Bergson's famous negative judgement on cinema.

Key words: Cinematic Image, Gestalt Psychology, Melody, Montage, Perception, Rhythm.

Introduzione
Authors: Marramao Giacomo
Published: June 2021

La categoria della responsabilitŕ č oggi piů che mai al centro di dilemmi che toccano la metafisica, l'etica e la politica e che ci invitano a risalire al significato etimologico del termine, dal latino re-sponsare, re-spondere, ossia assumere un impegno solenne di natura religiosa. Partendo di qui č possibile delineare una prospettiva nuova e decisiva per la filosofia del futuro: il passaggio dall'etica della responsabilitŕ alla politica della responsabilizzazione. Ciň implica la costituzione di soggetti liberi, che non siano, come l'individuo moderno, giŕ costituiti nella loro presunta autonomia, ma, al contrario, capaci di costituirsi nella loro autonomia reale, attraverso pratiche reciproche (e conflittuali) di corresponsabilitŕ.
Responsabilitŕ e vocazione
Authors: Miegge Mario
Published: June 2021

Nella nota conferenza Politik als Beruf (1919) Weber definiva l'"etica della responsabilitŕ" come condizione essenziale dell'azione politica. Ma descrivendo la politica in termini di potere (Macht) e dominio (Herrschaft), vedeva il principale soggetto della vocazione e responsabilitŕ politica nel moderno leader di masse, depositario di doti carismatiche e potere decisionale. Pertanto trascurava l'altro elemento fondamentale della politica moderna, la dinamica dei gruppi generata dall'interazione delle volontŕ e dall'accordo. Due sono dunque i modi di intendere la responsabilitŕ: quello di Weber, legato alla nozione di leadership, e quello connesso invece al concetto di reciprocitŕ e consociatio, parola chiave della tradizione federativa inaugurata nel XVII secolo dal calvinista tedesco Johannes Althusius.
Responsibility for Action
Authors: Bagnoli Carla
Published: June 2021

Questo articolo propone un argomento a sostegno della tesi secondo cui il concetto di responsabilitŕ morale non č eliminabile e il suo uso non č e non puň essere messo in questione da argomenti empirici o naturalistici. Anziché un argomento contro il naturalismo, č un tentativo di mostrare che il concetto di responsabilitŕ, quando se ne sono chiarite le implicazioni, č compatibile con concezioni naturalistiche della real tŕ. L'argomento si basa su una interpretazione dialogica della responsabilitŕ e mette in dubbio le pretese riduttiviste di certe versioni radicali del naturalismo.
Ontologie statiche e dinamiche. Danto vs. Goodman (e oltre)
Authors: Desideri Fabrizio
Published: June 2021

Sul problema dell'ontologia dell'opera d'arte si confrontano oggi un approccio essenzialista, che mira a definire le proprietŕ invarianti di ogni opera, e un approccio funzionalista secondo il quale le proprietŕ dell'opera, sono contingenti e dipendono da pratiche simboliche. L'ontologia statica, intensionalista e descrittivistica del primo approccio č ben esemplificata dalla posizione di A. Danto; l'ontologia dinamica, estensionalista e costruttivistica del secondo approccio, da quella di N. Goodman. Dopo una critica diretta principalmente alla posizione di Danto, l'Autore propone una definizione di opera d'arte capace di superare la contrapposizione tra i due modelli.
Arte e realtŕ nella produzione artistica del Novecento
Authors: Di Giacomo Giuseppe
Published: June 2021

Le avanguardie storiche degli anni Venti e le neo-avanguardie degli anni Sessanta tentano di superare la dimensione autonoma dell'arte e la distinzione tra arte e vita. Tuttavia, se nell'avanguardia storica l'arte rivela ancora l'"altro" della realtŕ, e in questo modo si contrappone all'esistente, le produzioni artistiche attuali sono invece caratterizzate da un "realismo acritico" che, negando ogni "altro", rinuncia alla possibilitŕ di trasformare l'esistente. Cosě, se l'avanguardia sognava di redimere la vita per mezzo dell'arte, la neo-avanguardia, invece, sostiene che č l'arte stessa a farsi vita nel momento in cui l'opera rinuncia alla "forma".
Fenomenologia dell'oggetto nell'arte del Novecento
Authors: Messina Maria Grazia
Published: June 2021

Nell'arte del Novecento opere e oggetti d'uso vengono a sovrapporsi in modi diversi. Un primo percorso muove dal collage cubista che non vuole piů rappresentare il reale, ma che si presenta come una realtŕ in sé compiuta. Questa ricerca prosegue con i ready-mades di Duchamp fino al Nouveau Réalisme, per approdare a una fusione di arte e vita. Un secondo percorso muove dal "Grande Realismo" di Kandinskij, dalla pittura metafisica di De Chirico, e dal Surrealismo per arrivare al New Dada. Qui gli oggetti manifestano un'alteritŕ che esorcizza l'anonimato dell'oggetto merce.
"Prendi un oggetto / Facci qualcosa". Le cose nel lavoro di Rauschenberg e Johns degli anni Cinquanta
Authors: Zambianchi Claudio
Published: June 2021

Negli anni Cinquanta alcuni artisti newyorkesi iniziano a opporsi all'Espressionismo Astratto allora dominante. Rauschenberg e Johns, i maggiori protagonisti di questo processo, sono indotti a includere nell'opera oggetti comuni. Rauschenberg si basa sul loro montaggio per trasformare la nozione di superficie pittorica propria della generazione precedente e per implicare nell'opera contenuti di carattere privato. Per Johns, la decostruzione della retorica del modernismo č piů sottile, e si basa sulla parodia della pennellata spontanea dell'Espressionismo Astratto, ora adattata alla resa di immagini di oggetti banali. Questa ripresa dell'oggetto comune influenzerŕ fortemente l'arte dei decenni successivi.

Francesco Aqueci, La metodologia strutturale in Marx e Saussure Il valore di scambio di Marx e il valore linguistico di Saussure sono i differenti aspetti di una comune metodologia che nasce autonomamente, prima in economia politica e poi in linguistica. Una metodologia in cui il valore č la struttura soggiacente di ogni concreto atto linguistico e di ogni concreta transazione economica. In questo modo risulta possibile spiegare le allusioni di Marx al linguaggio come prodotto sociale analogo ai prodotti di merci, e gli esempi che Saussure trae dall'economia politica per spiegare il funzionamento del segno. L'autore mostra anche il modo in cui la tematica marxiana dell'alienazione si intreccia con la latente dimensione critica della semiologia di Saussure. Mostra, infine, la necessitŕ di superare il carattere neutro della metodologia strutturalista, per recuperare il momento etico della relazione tra soggetto e oggetto.
Un trattato sui segni
Authors: Manetti Giovanni
Published: June 2021

Il trattato De signis di Filodemo (40 a. C) gioca un ruolo fondamentale nella ricostruzione del pensiero semiotico dell'antichitŕ, perché presenta un'ampia e sofisticata serie di riflessioni filosofiche concernenti l'inferenza da segni. Esso registra in quattro distinte sezioni (di cui qui č presentata la traduzione della prima) la polemica sorta tra gli epicurei e una scuola filosofica avversaria, che per alcuni č rappresentata dagli stoici. Gli epicurei consideravano l'inferenza da segni, o semeiosis, una procedura basata sulla similaritŕ. La critica degli avversari era centrata sull'idea che un'inferenza deve essere basata non sulla similaritŕ, ma sulla anaskeué ("eliminazione", talvolta interpretata come "inferenza alla migliore spiegazione", e considerata un "criteri"", non un "metodo"). Replicando alla critica gli epicurei elaborarono un criterio di validitŕ del condizionale definito adianoesia ("inconcepibilitŕ").
Brentano and the Theory of Signs
Authors: Ierna Carlo
Published: June 2021

In this article the author discusses F. Brentano's theory of intentionality and the ontological status of the intentional object specifically with respect to symbolic presentations. The role and function of intentionality are compared to the process of semeiosis. Several interesting parallels can be found between fundamental problems in the interpretation of the Brentanian notion of intentionality and issues in semiotics. In particular, the author focuses on the theory of C.W. Morris and attempts to apply core notions of his semiotics to clarify Brentano's ambiguous account of intentional reference, the role of signs in symbolic presentations and how this relates to outer perception.
La teoria dei segni locali. Stumpf, critico di Lotze
Authors: Fisette Denis
Published: June 2021

L'articolo offre un'analisi della teoria dei segni locali sviluppata da H. Lotze e delle critiche avanzate da C. Stumpf. L'autore mostra inoltre come tale critica della nozione di segno locale sia strettamente legata a una messa in discussione da parte di Stumpf degli assunti metafisici di origine kantiana sullo spazio. Infine, l'autore rileva come questa critica del paradigma kantiano allora dominante sia decisiva per il perfezionamento da parte di Stumpf della distinzione brentaniana fra contenuti psichici indipendenti e dipendenti.
Famiglia, sessualitŕ, riproduzione: un puzzle da ricomporre
Authors: Bernini Stefania
Published: June 2021

- Family, Sexuality, Reproduction: an Unsolved Puzzle discusses the relationship between family history, gender studies and the studies of sexualities. Its starting point is the consideration that, perhaps surprisingly, disciplines and research interests apparently close have struggled to find a common language and a fruitful cooperation. Moving from a perspective of family history, this article explores causes and consequences of this apparent difficulty in finding a common ground between scholars of family, gender and sexuality and the possibility of overcoming it.

Keywords: Family, Sexuality, Reproduction, Gender studies, Historiography, History.

Parole chiave: Famiglia, Sessualitŕ, Riproduzione, Studi di genere, Storiografia, Storia.
Vidal Naquet, la memoria e la storia
Authors: Naquet Vidal
Published: June 2021

- In the first, an autobiographical interview, L'histoire est mon combat, the A. underlines the civil and political commitment with which as an historian he reports the crimes, especially during the Algerian war, denied by the authorities, but revealed as the truth through his researches. His studies of ancient Greece are perceived in contiguity with his political and social interests. The second book, Les assassins de la mémoire collects the author's essays on the negation of the Shoah; the detailed examination made by Vidal-Naquet of the arguments and attempts to destroy the Jewish memory are reviewed. On these themes Pierre Vidal-Naquet has also written one of his most interesting essays, entitled An Eichmann of paper.

Key words: Vidal Naquet, History, Memory, Negazionism.

Architettura e fascismo. Temi e questioni storiografiche
Authors: Bartolini Francesco
Published: June 2021

- Architecture and Fascism. Issues and interpretative perspectives examines the historical debate regarding Fascist architecture which has been ongoing over the last decade. In particular, it analyses some interpretative issues that have proven most interesting both for political historians and architectural historians: the existence of a «totalitarian style», the relationship between the Fascist regime and architects, the ideological connotation of urban and rural landscape, the legacy of the Fascist experience on the Italian Republic.

Key words: Italian Architecture, Fascism, Totalitarianism, Urban and Rural History, Rome.

Nazionale purchč locale: l'identitŕ di una lingua fatta in casa
Authors: Neri Binazzi
Published: June 2021

National but local: the identity of a home-made language. Most of the macroscopic features of the Italian language spoken in contemporary Italy, such as its regional and frequently "non-standard" modes, are to be connected to the somewhat hereditary way in which it is learned. Indeed, for most people the "language of the Nation" has not been acquired through education so much as through individual initiative, that shows up in relevant impingements on the traditional mother tongue. In this perspective the language currently spoken by Italian people confirms the "plurality" characteristic of Italian identity, but is also an indicator of the unachieved sense of belonging to the national community that is a long-term feature of Italian history.
La Resistenza come secondo Risorgimento: un topos retorico senza fine?
Authors: Cooke Philip
Published: June 2021

The Resistance as a second Risorgimento: a never-ending rhetorical topos? The article examines the long history of the rhetorical topos of the Resistance as a Second Risorgimento. The topos, though criticised in certain contexts, became a potent means of packaging the national/patriotic aspects of the partisan war. Although its popularity began to decline from the 1970s onwards, it is striking how the Resistance as a Second Risorgimento continues to enjoy success, even today.
Fare gli italiani. 150 anni in mostra
Authors: Bertolotti Maurizio
Published: June 2021

«Making Italians». 150 Years in Exhibition in Turin. In the context of a positive review, the author criticizes the exhibition at Turin of 150 years of Italian unity because it provides a representation of the process of unification of Italians in which conflicts are softened or removed: a tendency that the author attributes to the curators' explicit intention to give particular prominence to the elements that strengthen the sense of belonging to our national community. The author remarks that the curators have privileged the multimedia diversification of the sources rather than their in-depth analysis.
Volksgemeinschaft tra storiografia e memoria
Authors: Fonzi Paolo
Published: June 2021

In recent years a debate has been taking place among historians of Nazism about the role played by the concept of Volksgemeinschaft (Popular community) in the Third Reich. Though historians agree on the general relevance of this ideal for the National Socialist regime, the debate revolves around the question, whether this concept can be also useful employed for understanding material, political and social processes. Three German historians - Michael Wildt, Hans Mommsen and Ulrich Herbert - present their argumentations in favour or against the use of the concept of Volksgemeinschaft in this sense. Their stances imply different evaluations of how extensive and intense was the participation of the ordinary Germans in Nazi policy.
Ricerca storica e cittadinanza attiva: intervista a Eric Foner
Authors: Frezza Daria , Lorini Alessandra
Published: June 2021

focuses on the interconnections between historical scholarship and a historian's active role as a citizen in the cultural and political events of American society. Beginning with his personal and cultural background Foner highlights the crucial points of his major works by placing them in the larger context of American historiography. He also suggests how the most recent results of his research can be brought to the attention of a larger public, well beyond the boundaries of academic circles.
Quadri teorici e modelli operativi: lo stato della psicologia della salute italiana nell'orizzonte internazionale
Authors: Gremigni Paola , Ricci Bitti Pio Enrico
Published: June 2021

- This paper aims at tracing a brief history and background of Health Psychology, from its origin, in 1978 within the APA Division 38, up to our days. In Italy, Health Psychology developed in the Seventies from Medical Psychology and nowadays it is a well defined discipline, with a national scientific Society, linked to the European Health Psychology Society, several courses within the faculties of Psychology, and few post-graduate courses. As Health Psychology is both a theoretical and applied field, recent advances, especially in North America and UK, have lead to the development of specific sub-disciplines, such as Clinical health psychology, Occupational health psychology, Public health psychology, Community health psychology, and Critical health psychology. In Italy also there is a recent interest for these areas, which is reflected in the variety of published studies and practical applications in different contexts (i.e., healthcare, schools, work, and public and community health). Although the necessity of creating separate sub-disciplines has not yet emerged in Italy, the Italian Health Psychology is currently characterized by a great variety of research methods, both quantitative and qualitative, and by a critical analysis and a deep evaluation of different theoretical orientations. Key words: clinical health psychology, critical health psychology, health psychology, occupational psychology, community psychology, medical psychology, public health.

The individual functioning in relationships, social and working areas can be impaired, not just by the diagnosis, but also by medical procedures of the treatment. For the planning of a correct intervention it is necessary to understand feelings regarding the infertility from a personal aspect, in the socio-domestic sphere and within the sphere of the two people involved as a couple. The main purpose of the integrated approach is to ensure that patients understand the implications of the choices of their treatment, receive adequate emotional support and learn to cope with infertility consequences.
