In the last 40 years, the "Great Sporting Events" such as Olympic Games have gained increasing popularity and, at the same time, increased international importance. The geographical space where major sporting events take place is not a passive container of such performances, on the contrary, the territorialization of mega-events is an expression of political, economic, and cultural interests. Although their duration is ephemeral, they have a very significant impact on a local, regional and global scale. Countries compete to host these events to obtain greater visibility, improve their infrastructure, attract tourist flows, and ultimately, achieve a territorial projection on a regional and global scale. Olympic Games as an instrument of state soft power politics: the case of Winter Olympic Games Sochi 2014 is a work of research that describes how was the international behavior of Russia in the role of the organizer of the Sochi 2014 Winter Olympic Games and the consequent use of such great event in foreign policy, with the ultimate aim of standing out politically on the international scene.

Nach der Niederlage bei Mantineia im Sommer 418 v.Chr. (s. Thuk. 5,46-75) war Argos gezwungen, das Bündnis mit Athen zu lösen und sich mit Sparta zu einigen. Der Vertrag wurde auf fünfzig Jahre abgeschlossen (s. Thuk. 5,79). Die Volksherrschaft in Argos kam zu einem Ende und ein den Spartanern freundlich gesinnter Adel wurde als Führungselite eingesetzt. Diese Neuerungen wurden nicht von allen Einwohnern begrüßt und so kam es im Winter 418/17 v.Chr. zur Revolte. Der Zeitpunkt war gut gewählt, denn die Spartaner veranstalteten zur selben Zeit das "Fest der nackten Knaben" und waren deshalb nur eingeschränkt reaktionsfähig.

One of the main priorities of the agricultural EU policies is to set up valid, reliable and feasible indicators for on-farm welfare assessment. The EU Welfare Quality® project has developed a set of valid and feasible indicators, that have also been tested for inter-observer repeatability. For those indicators, repeatability between different times of survey has already been tested, but always within limited time spans; therefore, we have no information about their long-term repeatability, e.g. in extremely different seasonal conditions. We can hypothesize that more or less marked seasonal variations can occur, depending on farms' geographical location. In order to verify this hypothesis, we collected some welfare indicators, derived from the Welfare Quality® protocol, in 22 dairy farms located in plain, hilly and piedmont areas in Lumbardy, both in summer and in winter. No differences between seasons were found for presence of hairless patch areas, lameness, avoidance distance at the feeding rack (used to evaluate human-animal relationship) and for the other behavioural indicators. The percentage of cow that are too lean was higher in winter, especially in piedmont farms, where the climate is more severe. In fact, a long cold period, with rain, snow and wind, may cause an increase of energy consumption that, in turn, can make cows loose weight. The percentage of cows with diarrhoea was higher in winter, probably due to a reduction of digestion efficiency, induced by low environmental temperatures, that increased the sensibility of cows to enteric pathologies. We may conclude that the geographic location of the farms affected the repeatability of some welfare indicators in different seasons. The present study was carried out in the frame of the EULAT project, supported by Lumbardy Region, and that aims at the valorization of an excellent production chain – in terms of environmental sustainability, animal welfare and nutritional quality for the production of milk and dairy products.

La tesi mira ad analizzare l'evoluzione del mercato energetico e a comprendere l'influenza della digitalizzazione su questo processo, cercando di cogliere come la tecnologia possa coordinarsi con il mercato e la relativa regolazione. Nello specifico, la trattazione si articola in tre capitoli. Il primo offre una disamina della normativa europea in materia di energia, evidenziando gli elementi innovativi introdotti dal Winter Energy Package. Il secondo si focalizza sul nuovo ruolo che i cittadini possono ricoprire nel mercato energetico, facendo particolare riferimento al prosumer e alle Comunità energetiche. Infine, il terzo capitolo guarda all'utilizzo della tecnologia, in particolare della Blockchain e degli Smart Contracts, nel mercato energetico, cercando di cogliere come queste possano incidere sia sul funzionamento del mercato sia sulla regolazione. The thesis aims to analyze the evolution of the energy market and understand the influence of digitalization on this process, trying to understand how technology can coordinate with the market and its regulation. Specifically, the discussion is divided into three chapters. The first offers an examination of the European legislation on energy, highlighting the innovative elements introduced by the Winter Energy Package. The second focuses on the new role that citizens can play in the energy market, with particular reference to the prosumer and the energy communities. Finally, the third chapter looks at the use of technology, and in particular of Blockchain and Smart Contracts, in the energy market, trying to understand how these can affect both the functioning of the market and regulation.

"This series started in 1981 with the Erice Seminars when the danger of a nuclear East-West confrontation was menacing the world. The volumes reproduce the crucial steps, from the Nuclear Winter to the Strategic Defense Initiative. After the collapse of the U.S.S.R., new emergencies are now to be faced such as the danger of proliferation of Weapons for Mass Destruction (WMD), the North-South confrontation on ecological problems and the new deal for Science and Technology to help developing countries in their struggle for a better standard of life. The Erice Seminars have attracted the attention of world leaders in Science, Technology and Culture."--Publisher's website

In den Zeitraum des Bandes fallen bedeutende Ereignisse wie der Tod der preußischen Königin Sophie Charlotte am 1. Februar 1705 und der Beginn der Korrespondenz mit Wilhelmine Caroline von Brandenburg-Ansbach, der späteren englischen Königin. Bis in den April hinein sondiert Leibniz die Möglichkeit, in den Dienst des Berliner Hofes zu treten, die sich im Winter 1704/05 zu eröffnen schien. Auch ein Wechsel nach Dresden, wo er König August II. im Dezember 1704 seinen Plan für eine Sozietätsgründung vorstellte, bleibt für ihn keineswegs nur ein Gedankenspiel. In den politischen Abschnitten der Korrespondenzen geht es um Fortschritte und Gefahren im Konflikt mit den expandierenden Mächten Frankreich im Spanischen Erbfolge- und Schweden im Nordischen Krieg sowie um die hannoversche Sukzession auf den britischen Thron und damit die Absicherung einer protestantischen Erbfolge in England. Die gelehrten Teile der Korrespondenzen umfassen ein weites Themenfeld von Altertums- und Sprachwissenschaften über Mathematik bis zur Suche nach historischen Quellentexten und deren Vorbereitung für den Druck in Leibniz' Scriptores rerum Brunsvicensium. Etwas mehr als 80 Prozent der 465 Briefe werden in dem Band erstmals veröffentlicht.

Il lavoro elaborato dal Gruppo di ricerca LabCity Architecture sulla rigenerazione dei piccoli centri rurali del territorio siciliano, vittime della crisi economica e demografica di quest'ultimo decennio, evidenzia l'urgenza di un ripensamento delle strategie di intervento in questi luoghi con forti potenzialità territoriali, patrimoniali e culturali, proponendo progetti di ricerca-azione in sinergia con le comunità locali coinvolte. La recente emergenza sanitaria causata dalla pandemia da Covid-19 ha evidenziato l'esigenza di una ricerca mirata ad individuare i caratteri e le esigenze specifiche soprattutto dei centri minori, destinatari di politiche e di interventi spesso inadeguati. In quest'ottica si inserisce il progetto Above the clouds, elaborato nel 2021 dal LabCity Architecture in occasione della Winter School "Cinema Paradise" nel territorio naturale della cascata di San Nicola nella Valle di Bolognetta, nell'area metropolitana di Palermo. ; LabCity Architecture group researches on the topic of regeneration of small rural centers in Sicily, victims of the economic and demographic crisis of the last decade. It highlights the urgency of rethinking new strategies in such places with strong territorial, heritage and cultural potential, and has suggested research-action projects in synergy with the local communities involved. The recent health emergency caused by the Covid-19 pandemic has highlighted the need for research aimed at identifying the specific characteristics and needs, especially of smaller towns, often the recipients of inadequate policies and interventions. In this perspective fits the project 'Above the clouds', developed in 2021 by LabCity Architecture on the occasion of the Winter School "Cinema Paradise" in the natural territory of the waterfall of San Nicola in the Valley of Bolognetta, in the metropolitan area of Palermo.
