ABSTRACT: The essay describes the historical and political context, as well as the law production in Canton Ticino during the first half of the nineteenth-century, which will lead to the Civil Ecclesiastical Law of 1855. The article is structured in two parts. The first part deals with the historical period between 1803 and 1829 and is divided into four sections: from the Act of Mediation to the project of the Civil Ecclesiastical Statute of 1819; the Constitution of 1830; the predominance of liberal ideas and the anti-ecclesiastical measures from 1848 to 1855. The second part is entirely dedicated to the Civil Ecclesiastical Law of 1855 – peak of the historical political process described in the first part – and to the analysis of its origin and the contents from the 1852 bill. The development procedure, the purpose and the kernel of the Law, specifically the government placet, are particularly stressed.

description: Following reunification, productivity in eastern Germany grew rapidly. A strong industrial sector is key to a thriving German economy. However, the narrowing of the industrial productivity gap between eastern and western Germany has come to a standstill since the financial and economic crisis and the gap remains considerable today. Nevertheless, when comparing similar regions in eastern and western Germany, the productivity gap shrinks. In both eastern German cities as well as rural areas, industrial companies are using labor and capital almost as efficiently as their competitors in comparable regions in the west. However, the productivity level in urbanized areas in eastern Germany is significantly lower than in urbanized regions in western Germany. For this reason, these regions in the east should be strengthened by expanding research and infrastructure and by encouraging the creation and growth of clusters. Progress in closing the productivity gap between eastern and western Germany can also be made by implementing a sustainable, countrywide infrastructure offensive to increase the attractiveness and growth opportunities of rural areas. As the east is very rural in structure, it would profit from this in particular.

The latter is also proved for the corresponding symbols and algebras on $\mathbb{B}^n$.

description: We study a generalized double Jaynes-Cummings (JC) model where two entangled pairs of two-level atoms interact indirectly. We focus on the case where the cavities and the entangled pairs are uncorrelated. We show that there exist initial states of the qubit system so that two entangled pairs are available at all times. In particular, the minimum entanglement in the pairs as a function of the initial state is studied. Finally, we extend our findings to a model consisting of multi-mode atom-cavity interactions. We use a non-Markovian quantum state diffusion (QSD) equation to obtain the steady-state density matrix for the qubits. We show that the multi-mode model also displays dynamical preservation of entanglement.

description: According to representative survey results of the Socio-Economic Panel (SOEP), volunteer rates have been continually rising in Germany over the past 30 years. Contributing factors include young adults’ growing willingness to volunteer as well as an increase in the volunteer behavior of older people, who begin to volunteer more often after entering retirement. A generational comparison shows that the Generation of 1968 (born between 1941 and 1954) volunteers especially frequently during retirement. Twenty-nine percent of respondents in this generation continued volunteering into retirement and 13 percent began volunteering after retiring, making the Generation of 1968 more active volunteers than older birth cohorts. Policies should support this potential resource in the future through flexible and accessible volunteer opportunities.

An animal model of Burning Mouth Syndrome (BMS) for assessment of peripheral gamma-aminobutuyric acid A (GABAA) receptors as an analgesic target
Creators: name: Tan, Sun Nee
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2013

description: Burning Mouth Syndrome (BMS) is a chronic pain syndrome characterised by burning pain in patients with clinically normal oral mucosa (Grushka et al., 2002). The prevalence of BMS increases with age and occurs far more commonly in women, with estimated female to male ratios ranging from 3:1 to 16:1 (Grushka, 1987b, van der Ploeg et al., 1987, Clark G.T, 2005). In women, there is a strong correlation between the development of BMS and the onset of menopause (Lipton et al., 1993, Bergdahl and Bergdahl, 1999). A proposed theory is that deprivation of oestrogen produces atrophic changes within the oral epithelium (Valimaa et al., 2004) leading to symptoms of BMS. Therefore, I employed immunohistochemistry and electrophysiology techniques to test the hypotheses that ovariectomised rats will show reduced nerve fibre densities and lower proportions of peptidergic neuronal fibres (small-diameter fibres) in the tongues leading to reduced thermal and mechanical thresholds of afferent fibres. A non-conventional treatment for BMS that seems effective (Gremeau-Richard et al., 2004) is sucking a tablet of the benzodiazepine (BZD), clonazepam, without swallowing. This treatment is speculated to decrease pain by activating peripheral ɣ-aminobutyric acid receptors A (GABAA) receptors in the oral cavity. Expression of GABAA receptors in tongue afferent fibres has yet to be demonstrated. Also, evidence for a direct effect of BZDs on nociceptors in the oral mucosa is lacking. My hypotheses are: GABAA receptors are present on both peptidergic and non-peptidergic nerve fibres. Activation of peripheral GABAA receptors will increase mechanical thresholds of tongue nerve fibres which would explain the therapeutic efficacy of topical clonazepam in human BMS. This study found high proportions of GABAAʏ²- containing, peptidergic (94%) and GABAAʏ²-containing, non-peptidergic (93%) tongueaxonal fibres of intact female rats. In intact females, muscimol and ɣ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) solutions had no effect on relative mechanical thresholds of afferent fibres. After thermal stimulation, muscimol significantly increased relative mechanical thresholds of afferent fibres. Ovariectomised and sham-operated rats did not differ in any of the parameters measured. Topical applications of muscimol and bicuculline solutions did not have any significant effect on relative mechanical thresholds of nerve fibres in both rat groups.

description: Amidst other national and global climate protection initiatives, the new EU Commission under the leadership of Ursula von der Leyen is facing the challenge of concretely following through on previous announcements regarding an ambitious climate policy. Specifically, action must be taken to raise the 2030 climate targets and the 2050 long-term strategy must be revised in adherence with the Paris Agreement. Model calculations by DIW Berlin economists show that it is possible and economically feasible to increase the 2030 emission reduction target from 40 to 60 percent compared to 1990. The considerable environmental cost savings are offset by small increases in energy system costs. When implementing an aggressive climate policy, burden sharing between the member states must be considered. Furthermore, neither nuclear power nor CO2 capture technology is needed to implement these ambitious climate targets, as the results of European model scenarios from the SET-Nav project show.

description: The ultra-loose monetary policy of recent years has raised concerns that the low interest rate environment may overly benefit households with specific demographic and financial characteristics. In this context, monetary policy can be a potential driver of gender wealth inequality, since women are known to be more risk averse, less financially literate, and to participate less in the financial markets than men do. This study focuses on the stock market investment behavior of US households and examines whether monetary policy affects the investment decisions of women and men differently. While monetary policy exclusively affects stock market participation of women, we do not observe any gender difference in the active investment behavior of men and women who invest in stocks. Therefore, increasing stock market participation of women can help prevent the potential distributional effects of monetary policy across gender. Investment plans that would explicitly target female investors could help stabilize and increase stock market participation of women.

description: We study a cosmological scenario in which the DBI action governing the motion of a D3-brane in a higher-dimensional spacetime is supplemented with an induced gravity term. The latter reduces to the quartic Galileon Lagrangian when the motion of the brane is non-relativistic and we show that it tends to violate the null energy condition and to render cosmological fluctuations ghosts. There nonetheless exists an interesting parameter space in which a stable phase of quasi-exponential expansion can be achieved while the induced gravity leaves non trivial imprints. We derive the exact second-order action governing the dynamics of linear perturbations and we show that it can be simply understood through a bimetric perspective. In the relativistic regime, we also calculate the dominant contribution to the primordial bispectrum and demonstrate that large non-Gaussianities of orthogonal shape can be generated, for the first time in a concrete model. More generally, we find that the sign and the shape of the bispectrum offer powerful diagnostics of the precise strength of the induced gravity.

description: The present report presents new historical data based on country comparisons and research results regarding rent control and its long-term effect on the home ownership rate in 27 countries. Policy measures of rent control, protection against eviction, and housing space management have been widespread in most of the countries studied—particularly in continental Europe—in the past 100 years. At the same time, the rate of home ownership in those countries has steadily risen in the long term. The present analysis shows that in the past century, the triumph of home ownership has not only been the result of relevant incentive measures and financial market liberalization. Indirectly, it is also due to rent control.

Contextualizing generic materials for foreign language teaching: a key competence of teachers of italian as a foreign language

Materials for teaching Italian as a foreign language are mainly generic, designed for teaching in various parts of the world. These tools require teacher intervention in order to adapt them for the students and the educational context where they are used. In addition to presenting the main aspects of the contextualization of teaching materials for foreign language teaching, the paper analyzes the skills necessary for contextualization so as to keep the teaching firmly anchored in the minds of the learners. An integrated analysis and evaluation grid for the appropriateness of materials for students and the contexts of teaching Italian abroad is also proposed.

description: Η υπογονιμότητα είναι ένα σύνθετο ζήτημα που επηρεάζεται από βιολογικούς παράγοντες και τον τρόπο ζωής. Οι γυναίκες κάτω των 35 ετών συνήθως παρουσιάζουν υψηλότερα ποσοστά γονιμότητας, αλλά με την ηλικία αυξάνονται τα προβλήματα γονιμότητας και οι κίνδυνοι για γενετικές ανωμαλίες και αποβολές. Η έγκαιρη διάγνωση και η εξατομικευμένη θεραπεία είναι κρίσιμη για την αποτελεσματική αντιμετώπιση. Οι αλλαγές στον τρόπο ζωής, όπως η βελτίωση της διατροφής, η άσκηση και η μείωση του άγχους, μπορούν να ενισχύσουν τη γονιμότητα, ενώ η κρυοσυντήρηση ωαρίων είναι μια σημαντική επιλογή για γυναίκες κάτω των 35 ετών που επιθυμούν να διασφαλίσουν την αναπαραγωγική τους υγεία στο μέλλον.Η ψυχολογική υποστήριξη είναι επίσης ζωτικής σημασίας, καθώς η υπογονιμότητα μπορεί να επηρεάσει αρνητικά τη συναισθηματική ευημερία. Η επαγγελματική υποστήριξη και η ανοιχτή επικοινωνία βοηθούν στη διαχείριση αυτών των συναισθημάτων. Παράλληλα, η πρόοδος στις θεραπείες υπογονιμότητας και η ανάπτυξη της τεχνολογίας ανοίγουν νέες δυνατότητες για γυναίκες που επιθυμούν να δημιουργήσουν οικογένεια.Τέλος, τα νομικά και ηθικά ζητήματα που σχετίζονται με τις θεραπείες υπογονιμότητας απαιτούν την ανάπτυξη κατάλληλων πλαισίων για την προστασία των δικαιωμάτων των ασθενών και την υπεύθυνη αντιμετώπιση αυτών των προκλήσεων στην κοινωνία.
description: Infertility is a complex issue influenced by a range of biological factors and lifestyle elements. Women under 35 generally have higher fertility rates, but with age, fertility problems increase along with the risks of genetic abnormalities and miscarriages. Early diagnosis and personalized treatment are critical for effective management. Lifestyle changes, such as improving diet, exercising, and reducing stress, can enhance fertility, while oocyte cryopreservation is an important option for women under 35 who wish to safeguard their reproductive health in the future.Psychological support is also vital, as infertility can negatively impact emotional well-being. Professional support and open communication help manage these feelings. Additionally, advancements in infertility treatments and the development of technology create new opportunities for women who wish to start a family.Finally, legal and ethical issues related to infertility treatments require the development of appropriate frameworks to protect patients' rights and address these challenges responsibly within society.
Long-wavelength limit of gyrokinetics in a turbulent tokamak and its intrinsic ambipolarity

Year: 2012
Subjects: subject: Plasma Physics (physics.plasm-ph)

description: Recently, the electrostatic gyrokinetic Hamiltonian and change of coordinates have been computed to order $ε^2$ in general magnetic geometry. Here $ε$ is the gyrokinetic expansion parameter, the gyroradius over the macroscopic scale length. Starting from these results, the long-wavelength limit of the gyrokinetic Fokker-Planck and quasineutrality equations is taken for tokamak geometry. Employing the set of equations derived in the present article, it is possible to calculate the long-wavelength components of the distribution functions and of the poloidal electric field to order $ε^2$. These higher-order pieces contain both neoclassical and turbulent contributions, and constitute one of the necessary ingredients (the other is given by the short-wavelength components up to second order) that will eventually enter a complete model for the radial transport of toroidal angular momentum in a tokamak in the low flow ordering. Finally, we provide an explicit and detailed proof that the system consisting of second-order gyrokinetic Fokker-Planck and quasineutrality equations leaves the long-wavelength radial electric field undetermined; that is, the turbulent tokamak is intrinsically ambipolar.

title: Extending the Consumer Safety Net: How the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau Can Use Its Authority to Protect Vulnerable Consumers
Creators: name: Steele, Graham
Publisher: name:     Great Democracy Initiative
Year: 2020

description: This year marks the 10th anniversary of Dodd-Frank and the creation of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. In this report, author Graham Steele, argues that the unfinished business of the CFPB is creating a more robust consumer safety net. Steele proposes three critical reforms the CFPB could make its existing legal authority. This new consumer safety net would guarantee consumers the right to: receive automatic forbearance for loans being serviced collected, or reported to credit companies during significant life events; hire or fire any third-party servicer, collector, or credit reporting company; and repurchase and settle their own debts before they are sold, on the same terms that are available to financial companies. Given the economic distress of our current moment, the CFPB should aggressively use its legal mandate to create a permanent safety net that protects vulnerable consumers during financial shocks like the one we are currently experiencing.

description: Women remain significantly underrepresented in the top decision-making bodies in the private sector. Over the past few years, increasingly more European countries have introduced statutory gender quotas to combat this underrepresentation. Other European countries have instead relied on voluntary gender diversity recommendations in the national corporate governance codes. Statutory gender quotas are significantly more effective than recommendations, as a descriptive comparison of the development of the proportion of women in the highest decision-making and supervisory bodies of the largest publicly traded companies in Europe shows. Quotas are even more effective if companies are threatened with harsh sanctions such as fines or liquidation in case of noncompliance. This suggests that voluntary commitments to recommendations or legal quotas without tough sanctions are not effective methods to increase the proportion of women in top positions significantly. This should be considered when discussing quotas for other areas such as politics, science, or the media.

description: In questo contributo si analizzano, in un contesto di insegnamento/apprendimento dell’italiano L2, esempi di parlato del docente, a cui è affidata la gestione della comunicazione didattica, ed esempi di parlato degli apprendenti, osservando, in particolare, in quale modo la loro produzione orale e il loro coinvolgimento nell’interazione verbale in classe sia previsto e guidato dalla forma della lezione e dalle strutture dialogiche a cui è correlato l’apprendimento della lingua. Nell’analisi di parlato e di interazioni verbali in classe si sono riscontrati due modelli fondamentali: la lingua della conversazione, macro-obiettivo comunicativo di lezioni svolte nell’ambito del progetto “Marco Polo” presso l’Università degli Studi di Milano, e la lingua dell’esposizione, perseguito nelle lezioni dei corsi sull’italiano disciplinare L2, sempre promossi dall’UniMi, e denominati “CALP” (Cognitive Academic Language Proficiency). La scelta metodologica di riportare la trascrizione e l’analisi di un’intera lezione del progetto “Marco Polo” è motivata dalla convinzione che la lezione è l’unità che riassume tutti gli elementi costitutivi del discorso didattico. A questa analisi segue l’esame di campioni audio-video registrati durante le lezioni dei corsi CALP, per mostrare come l’insegnamento/apprendimento dell’italiano L2/LS possa richiedere diverse tipologie di materiali e strumenti che supportano il parlato dell’insegnante e facilitano la comunicazione di contenuti didattici tra insegnante e apprendenti, se usati coerentemente con i micro-obiettivi e macro-obiettivi della lezione.

Language teacher in-class speech

In this paper we analyze examples of in-class teacher speech, responsible for managing the teaching communication, and examples of learners' speech in an Italian L2 teaching/learning context. In particular we observe how the student’s speech and involvement in verbal interaction in the classroom is planned and guided by the lesson and the dialogical structures related to language learning. In analyzing speech and verbal interactions in the classroom, we found two basic models: the language of conversation, macro-objective communication during lessons within the “Marco Polo” project at the University of Milan, and exposition language, in the disciplinary Italian L2 course lectures, referred to as “CALP” (Cognitive Academic language Proficiency). The methodological choice to use transcription in order to analyze an entire “Marco Polo” lesson was motivated by the belief that a lesson is the unit which comprehends all of the didactic discourse elements. We also examined audio-video recordings collected during the CALP course lectures, to show how the teaching / learning of L2/LS may require different types of materials and tools to support teacher speech and facilitate the communication of learning content between teachers and learners when used consistently with the micro-and macro-objectives of the lesson.

description: Il seguente saggio tratta le possibilità di presentazione in Università straniere, dove si insegna l’ItalianoL2, di un aspetto culturale italiano di forte impatto all’estero come il design, attraverso l’innovativa metodologia del webquest. L’iniziale parte teorica descrive il webquest come metodo didattico costruttivista, con particolare riferimento alle sue caratteristiche, parti costituenti e tipologie. Nella seconda parte vengono dati esempi concreti di webquest di breve e lunga durata su due prodotti italiani molto famosi di packaging design, che hanno festeggiato il loro anniversario nel 2012: il Bacio Perugina e il Campari Soda. I risultati positivi di entrambi i progetti intendono mostrare i vantaggi di una didattica centrata sull’alunno basata su attività di problem-solving e strategie di cooperative learning.

Discovering packaging design through webquest

The following essay deals about the possibilities to introduce a very successful cultural topic like Italian Design in Universities abroad, where Italian is taught as second foreign language, through the innovative methodology of WebQuests. The theoretical part describes WebQuests as constructivist didactic method with reference to its characteristics, main constituent parts  and typologies. In the second part we give concrete examples of short and long term WebQuests about two very famous packaging design Italian products which celebrated in 2012 their anniversary: BacioPerugina and Campari Soda. The positive results of both projects aim to show the advantages of learner-centered teaching methods based on problem-solving activities and cooperative learning strategies.

description: The slowdown in the global economy and the uncertainties caused by Brexit have affected the export-oriented German economy, which is expected to grow by only 0.5 percent this year. However, the German economy has not slid into a crisis due to marked fiscal policy stimuli and favorable developments on the labor market. Private consumption remains a mainstay of the economy; in addition, there is moderate inflation, which will barely dampen purchasing power over the next two years. Together with slightly stronger foreign demand, these factors will ensure that the German economy recovers somewhat over next year and the year thereafter. The economy is likely to grow by 1.4 percent in 2020 and 2021 as long as the serious political risks do not materialize. A no-deal Brexit, for example, would reduce growth in Germany by 0.4 percent in 2020.

description: Scopo di questo contributo è  descrivere il modo in cui il Pefil , Portfolio europeo per la formazione iniziale degli insegnanti di lingue. Uno strumento di riflessione (ECML, 2007) è stato usato nell’ambito del “Master in didattica dell’italiano come lingua non materna” dell’Università di Palermo non solo come strumento di autovalutazione, ma anche come strumento di insegnamento/apprendimento, valorizzando cioè  le potenzialità formative di questo Portfolio come auspicato dagli stessi autori.

Il documento è impiegato, in una nuova prospettiva, come chiave di lettura dei contenuti della professione e ha fornito ai corsisti uno strumento per rintracciare le connessioni fra i diversi input formativi del Master. In questo modo è stato possibile per ciascuno di loro costruire un tessuto unitario di apprendimento delle competenze professionali di insegnanti di italiano L2 e LS  in un’ottica di life long learning, secondo un approccio riflessivo.

The Portfolio Europeo per la Formazione Iniziale degli Insegnanti (PEFIL) as a teaching/learning tool

The aim of this paper is to describe how the European Portfolio for Student Teachers of Languages - Portfolio Europeo per la Formazione Iniziale degli Insegnanti (PEFIL), A reflection tool for language teacher education (ECML, 2007) has been used in the Master Degree program in “Italian Foreign Language Teaching” at the University of Palermo. The PEFIL has not only been used as a tool for self-assessment, but by exploiting the educational potential of the portfolio, it has also become an important learning/teaching tool.

The Portfolio was used as a way to interpret essential teaching contents. It gave students a tool for finding connections between the diverse educational elements of the Master program. Thus it was possible for each of them to create a coherent network of professional competences for teaching Italian as a second and foreign language within a life long learning perspective, following the reflexive approach.

description: The ongoing trade conflicts initiated by the US and the uncertainty surrounding Brexit are negatively affecting the global economy. Global trade and investment activity, and thus in many places industrial output, are the areas most impacted. Consumption, however, is continuing to support the economy in many countries. DIW Berlin is expecting global GDP to grow to 3.7 percent this year and to slightly less in the following two years. Serious risks are weighing on the outlook, as the trade conflicts could continue to escalate and spread to the EU and the likelihood of a no-deal Brexit has increased.

description: We present a framework having the potential to unify the fundamental interactions in nature by introducing new degrees of freedom. An attempt is made to explain the hierarchy between the weak scale and the coupling unification scale, which is found to lie close to Planck energies. A novel process leading to the emergence of symmetry is proposed, which not only reduces the arbitrariness of the scenario proposed but is also followed by significant cosmological implications. Phenomenology includes the probability of detection of mirror fermions via the corresponding composite bosonic states and the relevant quantum corrections at the LHC.
