OBJECTIVE

Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH)–induced vasospasm is linked to increased inflammatory cell trafficking across a permeable blood-brain barrier (BBB). Elevations in serum levels of matrix metalloprotease 9 (MMP9), a BBB structural protein, have been implicated in the pathogenesis of vasospasm onset. Minocycline is a potent inhibitor of MMP9. The authors sought to detect an effect of minocycline on BBB permeability following aSAH.

METHODS

Patients presenting within 24 hours of symptom onset with imaging confirmed aSAH (Fisher grade 3 or 4) were randomized to high-dose (10 mg/kg) minocycline or placebo. The primary outcome of interest was BBB permeability as quantitated by contrast signal intensity ratios in vascular regions of interest on postbleed day (PBD) 5 magnetic resonance permeability imaging. Secondary outcomes included serum MMP9 levels and radiographic and clinical evidence of vasospasm.

RESULTS

A total of 11 patients were randomized to minocycline (n = 6) or control (n = 5) groups. No adverse events or complications attributable to minocycline were reported. High-dose minocycline administration was associated with significantly lower permeability indices on imaging analysis (p < 0.01). There was no significant difference with respect to serum MMP9 levels between groups, although concentrations trended upward in both cohorts. Radiographic vasospasm was noted in 6 patients (minocycline = 3, control = 3), with only 1 patient developing symptoms of clinical vasospasm in the minocycline cohort. There was no difference between cohorts with respect to Lindegaard ratios, transcranial Doppler values, or onset of vasospasm.

CONCLUSIONS

Minocycline at high doses is well tolerated in the ruptured cerebral aneurysm population. Minocycline curtails breakdown of the BBB following aSAH as evidenced by lower permeability indices, though minocycline did not significantly alter serum MMP9 levels. Larger randomized clinical trials are needed to assess minocycline as a neuroprotectant against aSAH-induced vasospasm.

Published: March 2022

Recently, a series of historical reports portrayed the first women neurosurgeons in various countries. One such woman, a pioneer on many levels, remained unrecognized: Judith Balkányi-Lepintre. She was the first woman neurosurgeon in France, the first woman war neurosurgeon for the French Army, and the first woman pediatric neurosurgeon in France. Born in 1912 to a Hungarian Jewish family, she graduated with honors from medical school in Budapest in 1935, then moved to Paris where she started neurosurgical training in 1937 at L’Hôpital de la Pitié under the mentorship of Clovis Vincent, the founder of French neurosurgery. Shortly after marrying a French colleague in 1940, she had to escape the Geheime Staatspolizei (Gestapo) in Paris and ended up in Algeria, where she joined the French Army of De Gaulle. As a neurosurgeon, she participated in the campaigns of Italy and France between 1943 and 1945. After the war, she returned to work at La Pitié Hospital. In 1947, she defended her doctoral thesis, “Treatment of cranio-cerebral wounds by projectiles and their early complications.” Soon thereafter, she joined Europe’s first dedicated children’s hospital, Hôpital Necker-Enfants Malades in Paris, and contributed to the establishment of pediatric neurosurgery in France. She remained clinically and academically active at Necker until her death in 1982 but was never promoted.

In order to develop the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation, in the decree of the President of the Russian Federation, areas related to the development of the Northern Sea Route, environmental protection of the Arctic zone, an increase in the growth rate of geological research and the development of monitoring systems for the Arctic region were separately noted. Also in this document, the main tasks were identified that require careful study, namely: the development and implementation of technologies and equipment for use in Arctic conditions, the improvement of the environmental monitoring system, the use of modern information and communication technologies and communication systems for measurements from satellites, marine and ice platforms, research vessels, ground points and from observatories. These problems and tasks are already being successfully solved abroad with the help of the development of modern systems and devices used as part of marine robotic complexes (MRTC). This article provides a comprehensive analysis of the use of autonomous unmanned underwater vehicles (AUVs) as part of underwater resident systems. Particular attention is paid to the projects already implemented in the external market in the oil and gas industry. The authors present the implemented developments in the field of marine resident robotics in the Russian Federation. In conclusion, the authors for-mulated proposals for the development of the direction of marine robotics, including for solving problems associated with long-term monitoring and operation of the bottom oil and gas infrastructure. Key words Marine robotic complexes, AUV, resident robotics, seabed stations, underwater service work, underwater monitoring.
Scene recognition for confined spaces in mobile robotics: current state and tendencies
Authors: Orlova Svetlana , Lopota Alexander
Published: March 2022

The article discusses the problem of scene recognition for mobile robotics. Subtasks that have to be solved to implement a high-level understanding of the environment are considered. The basis here is an understanding of the geometry and semantics of the scene, which can be decomposed into subtasks of robot localization, mapping and semantic analysis. Simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) techniques have already been successfully applied and, although they have some as yet unresolved problems for dynamic environments, do not present a problem for this issue. The focus of the work is on the task of semantic analysis of the scene, which assumes three-dimensional segmentation. The field of 3D segmentation, like the field of image segmentation, has been decomposed into semantic and object segmentation, contrary to the needs of many potential applications. However, at present, panoptic segmentation is beginning to develop, combining the two previous ones and most fully describing the scene. The paper reviews the methods of 3D panoptic segmentation, identifies promising approaches. The actual problems of the scene recognition problem are also discussed. There is a clear trend towards the development of complex incremental methods of metric-semantic SLAM, which combine segmentation with SLAM methods, and the use of scene graphs, which allow describing the geometry, semantics of scene elements and the relationship between them. Scene graphs are especially promising for the field of mobile robotics, since they provide a transition from low-level representations of objects and spaces (for example, segmented point clouds) to describing a scene at a high level of abstraction, close to a human one (a list of objects in a scene, their properties and location relative to each other).
The origins of parliamentarism in Russia
Authors: Shulzhenko Yuri L.
Published: March 2022

The article is devoted to the analysis of the origins of domestic constitutionalism – the most important attribute of such starting indicators, for example, as a legal, constitutional state, separation of powers, constitutionalism. Its concise definition and characteristics are presented. There are three main periods of the emergence and development of Russian parliamentarism. The first - until October 1917. The most important result here is the bourgeois-democratic revolution in Russia of 1905 - 1907. It was the creation of the parliament for the first time in our country. This is the beginning of domestic practical parliamentarism. The second period - 1917 - 1991, characterized by the rejection of parliamentarism and its criticism in capitalist states. The third is the modern period, from 1992 to the present day.

During the four-year field experiments, the influence of post-emergence herbicides such as Pik, Prima and Grantox on the phytosanitary state of grain sorghum crops and the formation the grain productivity of plants was established. It was found that the applied chemicals did not affect the main stages of ontogenesis by sorghum plants. The use of the active ingredient of Prima and Grantox led to a decrease the linear growth of plants. The height of sorghum plants with increasing the application dose of Prima decreased from 101.7 to 98.5 cm. When increasing the dose of Grantox, the toxic effect of the active ingredient on sorghum plants increased, as a result their height decreased significantly from 103.1 to 98.1 cm. With regard to the Pik herbicide, with increasing of application doze, the plant height increased from 105.5 to 107.9 cm. Due to the use of the application dose of 20 g/ha, the highest grain yield of sorghum was obtained (4.04 t/ha). It is only 0.22 t/ha less compared to the variants where weeds were removed manually. These results indicate a significant effect of the Pik herbicide on weeds and weak phytotoxicity against sorghum plants. When using the Prima herbicide, it was observed activation of tillering with a slight decrease in the number of panicles. All studied herbicides were characterized by high efficiency against dicotyledonous weeds: Grantox – 78.0–86.2 %, Prima – 75.4–83.1 %, Pik – 80.6–89.3 %. Despite the different phytotoxic effect on plants, grain productivity of grain sorghum increased due to the application of post-emergence herbicides compared to plots with natural weed infestation: Prima – by 0.66–0.92 t/ha, Grantox – by 0.60–0.97 t/ha, Pik – by 1.02–1.40 t/ha . Based on the research, it was found that the application of Pik herbicide in dose of 15–20 g/ha at the 4–5 leaf stage of sorghum was safest for plants and the most effective for the control of dicotyledonous weeds. Key words: grain sorghum, growth and development, weeds, herbicide, yield.

Published: March 2022

It was found that the studied tank mixtures of modern soil-applied herbicides in chickpea crops did not cause inhibition of plant growth and development. No negative effect of tank mixtures of soil-applied herbicides on the fresh weight of nitrogen-fixing nodules on the chickpea root at pod filling stage was detected. It was found that when using the tank mixture of Tizer, 2.0 l/ha + Advokat, 0.5 l/ha, fresh weight of nitrogen-fixing nodules per chickpea plant (1.36 g) increased the most. In the variant of application of the herbicide mixture of Tizer, 2.0 l/ha + Panda, 3.5 l/ha, a significant increase in the fresh weight of one chickpea plant (by 87 %) was noticed. Precipitation, which fell immediately after the application of tank mixtures of soil-applied herbicides, led to an increase of herbicide efficiency. The phytotoxic effect of the most tank mixtures in chickpea crops was better with respect to dicotyledonous biennial weeds than annual cereals. At the first accounting it was found that the amount of annual cereals and dicotyledonous biennial weeds in chickpea crops was controlled the best by the tank mixture of herbicides Herb 900, 2.0 l/ha + Kapral, 2.0 l/ha (77 and 93 %, respectively), at the second accounting – Tizer, 2.0 l/ha + Panda, 3.5 l/ha (87 and 91 %, respectively). The fresh weight of annual cereals weeds at the end of the chickpea growing season decreased the most with applying the tank mixture Tizer, 2.0 l/ha + Dual Gold 960 EC, 1.6 l/ha (93 %), and dicotyledonous biennial weeds with applying of Tizer, 2.0 l/ha + Panda, 3.5 l/ha (95 %). The total fresh weight of annual cereal and dicotyledonous biennial weeds in chickpea crops decreased in large measure under the influence of phytotoxic effect of the tank mixtures of herbicides Tizer, 2.0 l/ha + Panda, 3.5 l/ha (by 92 %). When applying the combination of herbicides such as Tizer, 2.0 l/ha + Premium Gold, 3.0 l/ha, and Tizer, 2.0 l/ha + Panda, 3.5 l/ha in chickpea crops, the largest grain yield gain was obtained 0.15 and 0.12 t/ha, respectively.

Published: March 2022

Islam is the largest religion in Indonesia. Therefore, nowadays sharia banks continue to grow every year. This is proven by the growing number of Sharia banks in Indonesia. Nowadays, Indonesian people are interested in sharia bank services. This is due to the existence of a non-usury system in sharia banks that is not owned by conventional banks. In conducting its business, the implementation of the sharia banking system is based on Islamic law (sharia).

This study aims to determine the influence of Mudarabah, Musharakah, Murabaha, and Qardh Financing on the Profitability of Sharia Commercial Banks in Indonesia in 2015-2019 both simultaneously and partially. The data is obtained from the annual financial statements of each sharia commercial bank.

The population used is sharia commercial banks in Indonesia for the period 2015-2019. Sampling was conducted on a nonprobability sampling by using purposive sampling. Obtained 45 samples from 9 Sharia Commercial Banks for 5 years. The analysis method uses data panel regression by Eviews software version 11.

It is shown by the results that the financing of mudarabah, musharakah, murabaha, and qardh financing had a simultaneous effect on profitability. Mudarabah and Musharakah financing have no effect on profitability. Murabaha financing has negatively effects profitability and Qardh financing has positively effects profitability.
Intelligent evaluation method of bank digital transformation credibility based on big data analysis
Authors: Xie Chen
Published: March 2022

In order to measure the quality and level of digital transformation of banks, we evaluate its credibility. Due to the backwardness of data processing technology, the existing credibility evaluation methods have the defects of low validity of evaluation results, which indicates that the evaluation results are one-sided and can not meet the needs of today’s digital transformation of banks. Therefore, this paper proposes an intelligent evaluation method for the credibility of digital transformation of banks based on big data analysis. This paper analyzes the digital transformation strategy of banks in detail. On this basis, it introduces big data analysis technology, selects credibility intelligent evaluation index, constructs credibility intelligent evaluation model, formulates credibility intelligent evaluation steps of digital transformation of banks according to the construction model, and implements the steps to realize the intelligent evaluation of digital transformation credibility of banks. The experimental data show that: compared with the existing methods, the validity data of the evaluation results of the proposed method is larger, which fully confirms the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed method and is suitable for vigorously promoting and applying.

Interventions incorporating both educational and recreational activities can bring in positive changes to participants whatever may be their age group not to mention elderly. Realising the opportunities available and support from family and community as well as participating in various social activities can keep the elderly busy and active. A feeling of inner peace and gratitude for being wanted by the dear and near will be induced   instead of solitude and or isolation and negligence. Regaining freedom and independence through community activities and a life free from diseases will boost their confidence and bring in successful ageing. The present study was a pre-test post-test control group design. After assessing the quality of life (QOL) of elderly, they were divided into two groups. The experimental group (n=204) received a set of classes and instruction on how to fight the debilitating conditions by getting organized themselves. The QOL of the control group (n=203)was assessed at the beginning of the study. The control group received all necessary sessions after assessing the QOL. The study proves to be successful and cost effective if undertaken by the community. Stepping up of the community in the affairs of their elderly will be twofold. Elderly will be benefitted and the young and adults in community can learn valuable lessons from this experienced group and plan for improve their own life to minimize frictions and for successful ageing.

Authors: Novianti Novianti
Published: March 2022

This study aims to investigate the effect of parents’ interpersonal communication and students’ empathy on the prosocial behaviors of Buddhist students. This study employed a quantitative method to reveal whether there is an effect of parents’ interpersonal communication and students’ empathy on the prosocial behaviors of Buddhist students. The instrument used to collect data was questionnaire. The results indicated that there was a significant effect of parents’ interpersonal communication on the prosocial behaviors of Buddhist students with significance level 0.046 and t-value 2.124. Good parents’ interpersonal communication improved prosocial behaviors of Buddhist students. Moreover, students’ empathy had a significant effect on students’ prosocial behavior with significance level 0.000 and t-value 15.021, which means that higher empathy will result in better prosocial behaviors. Based on the regression analysis, parents’ interpersonal communication and students’ empathy affected the prosocial behavior of Buddhist students at junior high schools in Wonogiri as much as 92.9%. The implication of this study is parents should build a good interpersonal communication with their children and develop their empathy so that children can positively respond to parents’ guidance which will lead to better prosocial behavior.

An Ephemeral King: Political Power and Urban Space in Spanish Milan
Authors: D’Amico Stefano
Published: March 2022

Nel XVI e XVII secolo, mentre ambiziose riorganizzazioni principesche del tessuto urbano trasformarono la maggior parte delle città italiane, Milano rimase sostanzialmente invariata. Nel tentativo di assicurarsi pace e stabillità in una regione essenziale dal punto di vista strategico per il sistema imperiale, la corte di Madrid abdicò a buona parte del potere locale a favore del patriziato e della Chiesa. Questo articolo suggerisce che i sovrani spagnoli, in uno sforzo volto a non inimicarsi le elites urbane, si astennero anche dall'esibire il loro potere nella fabbrica cittadina attraverso nuovi sviluppi urbanistici, la costruzione di edifici maestosi o semplicemente l'esibizione di loro ritratti, e limitarono la loro presenza simbolica alle periodiche cerimonie reali e ad architetture effimere.
Of Elephants and Harmony: Memory, Knowledge and Pleasure in the Joyous Entry of Albert of Austria and Isabella of Spain into Antwerp
Authors: Thøfner Margit
Published: March 2022

This essay is about a sculpted elephant set on a wheeled base, an early modern festival float belonging to the city of Antwerp in present-day Belgium. Twice a year, during civic processions known as ommegangen, this float was paraded through the streets of Antwerp. However, on 10 December 1599, the civic authorities deployed the elephant as a stationary pageant, to form part of a different festival, the Joyous Entry of the Infanta Isabella Clara Eugenia and her husband, Archduke Albert of Austria. This article explores the many roles and resonances pertaining to this specific use of the float. The article is therefore a detailed case study of how one Habsburg subject city deployed one particular sculpture within urban pageantry to articulate and negotiate its often fraught relationship to its overlords and its position within the broader Luso-Hispanic Empire. At the same time, I show how the Antwerp urban elite drew on diverse forms of knowledge - historical, geographical, dynastic, scientific, musical and religious - to address and, to a certain extent, domesticate their courtly visitors.
A Difficult Balancing Act: The Visits of Spanish Monarchs in Early Modern Naples (1506-1702)
Authors: Guarino Gabriel
Published: March 2022

This essay centres on the royal visits in Naples of Ferdinand the Catholic (1506-7), Charles V (1535-6) and Philip V (1702). The historiography has emphasized the visits' formal aspects, particularly the intricate artistic programmes accompanying the royal entry. The focus here, however, is on those untoward aspects, purposefully avoided in the official documentation - tensions between individuals or groups, mishaps, ceremonial blunders, conflicts of precedence, etc. The findings of this essay show that although the antagonistic nature of the Neapolitan elites shines through in these occasions, their amount of assertiveness varies according to the political sensitivity of each visit and their perception of the monarch's power and prestige
The Troubles of Global Civitas: Segregation and Convivencia in Colonial Manila, 1580-1700
Authors: Crewe Ryan
Published: March 2022

In the historiography of the seventeenth-century Spanish Empire, Manila figures prominently as both a commercial entrepôt and as a site of ethnic conflict. This article examines the less-studied social processes of migration, settlement, and mestizaje that laid the foundation for Manila's prosperity as well as its global diversity. It examines Spanish efforts to segregate and manage ethnic diversity in urban and domestic spaces, everyday cosmopolitanism and mestizaje, and the ways in which unresolved tensions between pluralism and exclusivism structured interethnic violence. Early Modern Manila lived according to a volatile and often begrudging convivencia that was grounded in cross-cultural interactions that, no matter how grave the crisis, underwrote the Manila's prosperity and social composition throughout the seventeenth century.
Accountability, anti-corruption, and transparency policies in Public owned enterprises (POEs): The case of Italy
Authors: Zatti Andrea
Published: March 2022

The paper depicts, in the Italian case, the interconnections between two themes: bribery and anti-corruption policies, on the one hand, and the role of public controlled entities, on the other. Italy turns out to be an interesting case study because, on the one hand, it is among the worst performing countries in the G7 and the EU members in terms of corruption and, on the other, it has experienced a strongly proliferation of Public owned enterprises (POEs) during the last two or three decades, involving nearly all activity sec-tors of the economy. This process is deemed to have weakened the chain of control on shared units, delegating relevant financial and political decisions to a milieu of ambiguity and uncertain accountability (the ‘escape' argument). A progressive change of direction occurred more recently, when corporatized public enterprises have been submitted to specific and increasing limits, including transparency and anti-corruption policies. The anticorruption package, adopted in Italy starting with 2012, has promoted important steps in this direction, yet the effects of these new measures have not been resolutive, and many challenges are still open.

Spunti sul salario minimo dopo la Proposta di direttiva UE
Authors: Pascucci Paolo , Speziale Valerio
Published: March 2022

Il saggio, dopo aver messo in evidenza come in Italia vi sia una vera e propria questione salariale legata alla diffusione del "lavoro povero" e al basso livello delle retribuzioni, analizza la Proposta di direttiva UE sul salario minimo, recentemente approvata dal Parlamento europeo e tuttora non definitiva. L'articolo esamina le finalità e le motivazioni della Proposta (diretta a garantire salari adeguati che consentano una vita dignitosa) e i delicati problemi giuridici connessi sia alla competenza della UE in materia salariale, sia alla disciplina in essa contenuta. Dopo aver sottolineato che la Proposta non impone una legge sul salario minimo nei paesi in cui la retribuzione è stabilita dai contratti collettivi (come l'Italia), il saggio valuta gli effetti che il recepimento della Direttiva in Italia potrebbe avere, anche in considerazione dei disegni di legge diretti da introdurre il salario minimo. Gli autori concludono la propria analisi sottolineando come sarebbe auspicabile un intervento legislativo che, in attuazione dell'art. 36 Cost., preveda retribuzioni minime corrispondenti a quelle previste dai contratti collettivi stipulati dai sindacati comparativamente più rappresentativi a livello nazionale.

Il Parti Socialiste Unifié ed il rapporto con Israele (1960-1974).
Authors: Radiconcini Leone
Published: March 2022

Questo saggio indaga lo sviluppo dei rapporti politici, istituzionali e personali fra i rappresentanti del Parti Socialiste Unifié francese ed Israele (con particolare riferimento al Mapam) fra il 1960 ed il 1974. L'autore rintraccia nell'ideologia terzomondista il paradigma secondo il quale il partito francese definì la propria azione a livello internazionale ed inquadrò i fenomeni globali, fra cui anche il conflitto arabo-israeliano. Il saggio ripercorre lo sviluppo storico dell'analisi proposta dal Psu, i cambiamenti all'interno della dirigenza politica e gli effetti dei principali eventi globali sulla definizione dei rapporti internazionali del partito. Il testo scandisce il percorso fatto dal partito in tre diversi periodi, che determinarono il passaggio del Psu da aperto sostenitore delle istanze sioniste a promotore della causa nazionale palestinese, rintracciando le motivazioni di questo passaggio nella definizione dicotomica della politica internazionale promossa dal paradigma interpretativo terzomondista. L'analisi proposta si avvale di materiale documentario presente principalmente nel fondo del Psu presso l'archivio nazionale francese di Pierrefitte-sur-Seine e degli articoli del settimanale del Psu Tribune Socialiste.
Agli esordi del cattolicesimo politico in Italia: il dibattito su Democrazia cristiana e murrismo
Authors: Saresella Daniela
Published: March 2022

Dopo lo scioglimento della Democrazia cristiana negli anni Novanta del secolo scorso, il tema del «partito cattolico» è stato poco affrontato, anche perché non più di attualità politica. Il saggio si pone l'obiettivo di ripercorrere gli studi sulle origini del cattolicesimo politico in Italia e intende sottolineare l'importanza dell'esperienza della prima democrazia cristiana, e in particolar modo delle figure di Romolo Murri e di Luigi Sturzo. Attraverso l'interpretazione degli storici che per un secolo hanno riflettuto sul tema, si dipana un percorso che mette in evidenza i differenti profili culturali e politici nella DC, i rapporti tra questa e il Partito popolare, e temi quale la libertà di coscienza, la laicità della politica, la convergenza programmatica tra culture differenti (cattolici e socialisti) e l'unità politica dei cattolici. Sempre presente è la questione della riforma della Chiesa, proprio negli anni in cui la "crisi modernista" scuoteva le coscienze di molti fedeli.
Comando e controllo nel lavoro agile: prime riflessioni
Authors: Battistelli Stefania , Campanella Piera
Published: March 2022

La normativa italiana in materia di lavoro agile (L. n. 81 del 2017) delinea le ca-ratteristiche di una nuova modalità di lavoro flessibile, senza vincoli specifici di orario e luogo di lavoro. L'istituto, che nasce con finalità di incrementare la com-petitività e agevolare la conciliazione dei tempi di vita e di lavoro, solleva questioni nuove, concernenti tanto l'organizzazione e la produttività del lavoro, quanto il benessere dei lavoratori, aprendo nuovi spazi di riflessione e di studio a riguardo. Alla luce di queste prime considerazioni, il contributo in oggetto si concentra sull'impatto del lavoro agile, e più in generale del lavoro a distanza, nei confronti dei poteri tipici del datore di lavoro rispetto alle relazioni industriali-tipo. Con l'introduzione di nuove tecnologie e di nuovi modelli di organizzazione del lavoro, il potere di controllo del datore di lavoro tende a rafforzarsi, esponendo i lavoratori a nuove forme di sorveglianza costante. In questo (nuovo) contesto, ci si chiede, in particolare, in che modo il potere di controllo o vigilanza si atteggi nel lavoro a distanza, quale funzione sia deputato ad assolvere e se e in che misura risulti com-patibile con la disciplina avente ad oggetto la vigilanza sull'esatto adempimento degli obblighi contrattuali da parte dei dipendenti di cui all'art. 4 St. lav. Analoga-mente, ci si chiede quali siano gli effetti della flessibilità dell'orario di lavoro sul potere, sui doveri e sulle responsabilità del datore, chiamato a garantire la discon-nessione del lavoratore dagli strumenti tecnologici di lavoro attraverso l'adozione di apposite misure tecniche e organizzative (art. 19, co. 1, L. 81/2017). D'altro can-to, lo scopo del diritto alla disconnessione non è solo quello di tutelare la salute del lavoratore e garantire il rispetto della sua vita personale, ma anche quello di evita-re il rischio di abuso di potere del datore di lavoro, comunemente definito "time porosity". Tuttavia, un modo adeguato per garantire efficacemente il diritto del lavoratore alla disconnessione non è ancora stato individuato e la questione meri-ta di essere approfondita. Tenuto conto di ciò, sarebbe opportuno ripensare al ruo-lo, da una parte, della contrattazione collettiva e delle parti sociali e, dall'altra, della legge nell'ottica di innalzare la qualità del lavoro a distanza.
Interventi: La Psicologia Individuale di Adler non è altro che autorispecchiamento?
Authors: Meneguz Giorgio
Published: March 2022

Riassunto. In questo breve commento sull'articolo di Romano (2022) "Le radici autobiografiche della Psicologia Individuale di Alfred Adler", ci si interroga se sia metodologicamente corretto indicare nel racconto delle drammatiche esperienze infantili di Alfred Adler l'unico fondamento radicale della costruzione del suo sistema teorico e del conflitto con Freud.
La concezione giuridica dell'amore. Giacomo B. Contri, freudiano dopo Lacan
Authors: Gabriella Pediconi Maria , Maria Genga Glauco
Published: March 2022

«Dalla psicoanalisi al pensiero giuridico» (Contri, 1994): è questa la direzione dell'elaborazione di Giacomo B. Contri (1941-2022), freudiano dopo Lacan, così come risulta dagli articoli e dalle interviste pubblicate sulla rivista Psicoterapia e Scienze Umane dal 1989 al 2016, che qui riper-corriamo. Contri mette a punto un paradigma rivoluzionario, con il duplice risultato di far progre-dire la scienza dell'inconscio inaugurata da Freud e correggere gli errori del suo maestro: «Da Lacan ho imparato a essere freudiano» (Guerrieri & Contri, 1993, p. 103). Se l'inconscio è una legge terza rispetto a natura e cultura, in quanto il pensiero elabora fin dagli inizi le condizioni del-la soddisfazione per mezzo di un altro, lo psicoanalista cura l'inconscio in crisi per mezzo del pensiero stesso. Decisivo il passo del 2010: constatando che una Scuola lascia intatto il modello maestro/allievo - psicologia delle masse - Contri fonda la Società Amici del Pensiero "Sigmund Freud", radicalizzando così il distacco dal paradigma lacaniano.
Dal racconto al paesaggio. La narrazione come strumento progettuale nel recupero degli spazi agricoli di versante (Valtellina, Alpi centrali)
Authors: Tolusso Emiliano , Marini Andrea , Bonardi Luca
Published: March 2022

Contemporaneamente all'emersione di progetti di recupero del suo patrimonio storicoculturale, il paesaggio terrazzato della Media Valtellina di Tirano (Alpi centrali, Lombardia) ha negli ultimi anni guadagnato una posizione centrale nel discorso pubblico, sia a livello regionale che a quello, transfrontaliero e internazionale, della macroregione alpina. Tali progetti si focalizzano soprattutto sul restauro del patrimonio rurale, permettendone un nuovo impiego come substrato per la conduzione di attività agricole e turistiche, spesso integrate. Avvalendosi di interviste narrative con una serie di informatori chiave, sviluppate nell'ambito del progetto "Emblematici", l'articolo esplora, tramite un approccio qualitativo, la cultura contemporanea del terrazzamento in una regione fortemente contrassegnata dalla sua presenza. Questioni legate alla dimensione simbolica e culturale del terrazzamento si accompagnano a interrogativi riguardo al lavoro quotidiano, alle prospettive future di sviluppo dell'agricoltura locale e al ruolo dell'abbandono nella formazione del paesaggio culturale.

Published: March 2022

Environmental sustainability in the wine sector is one of the major factors of commercial interest for consumers and producing companies. The link between wine production, territory and architectural typology of wine cellars is always more important for the food and wine sector. This work explores the connections between architecture and energy efficiency with regards to minimizing environmental impacts in wine production and the sustainable use of resources in production processes. The role of economic and cultural promotion of wine cellars with bioclimatic architecture towards the tourism industry is highlighted.

Among the potential uses of cactus pear, the generation of bioenergy (biogas) and biofertiliser (digestate), from the Anaerobic Digestion (AD) of cladodes and fruits, is surveyed in this paper. Data for Life Cycle Impact Assessment (LCIA) was drawn from a farm located in Roccapalumba (Palermo, Sicily, Italy), where three cultivars were cultivated: 1) yellow pulp cultivar; 2) red pulp cultivar; 3) white pulp cultivar. LCIA was applied to six scenarios: 1) current dry crop; 2) current irrigated crop; 3) dry crop for fruit and bioenergy production; 4) irrigated crop for fruit and bioenergy production; 5) dry crop for bioenergy production; 6) irrigated crop for bioenergy production. According to LCIA, the highest total GHG emissions were found in Scenarios 2 and 4, while the lowest ones were found in Scenario 5. Moreover, the highest share of environmental impact for Scenarios 2, 4 and 6 is associated with the consumption of cardboard boxes used for collecting and transporting fruits, crop irrigation and a higher human work load. Furthermore, the digestate obtained from the AD process contains nutrients which make it a valuable biofertiliser, so that it reduces the expenditure for mineral fertilisers.
Quando c'è un terzo nella coppia. Strategie cliniche
Authors: Ghezzi Dante , Covini Paola
Published: March 2022

Il presente articolo esamina le situazioni in cui coppie in crisi chiedono un percorso di terapia mentre uno dei due partner è impegnato palesemente o occultamente in un rapporto affettivo con un'altra persona. Nella nostra prassi risulta incredibile la definizione di una terapia con la coppia, che prevede l'impegno reciproco dei partner, quando c'è un terzo; pertanto, queste situazioni vengono gestite in un contesto di consultazione. Nel caso di un tradimento palese, rivelato o scoperto, si accompagnerà il soggetto impegnato anche in altra relazione e il suo partner a trovare una via d'uscita. Nel caso di relazione occulta viene individuata una tecnica che permetta comunque di lavorare. Infine, affrontiamo il sospetto, che in équipe i terapeuti avanzano, che ci sia un terzo che nessuno rivela. Alcuni flash di casi emblematici illustrano il tema e esemplificano adeguatamente le scelte cliniche.
