Il presente lavoro propone un'analisi dei fenomeni che hanno portato ad un'ibridazione delle soggettività amministrative, sfumando i confini tra pubblico e privato. L'incapacità di distinguere il pubblico dal privato porta con sé il pericolo dell'elusione di quel sistema di regole poste da sempre a garanzia del cittadino contro possibili abusi della Pubblica Amministrazione, aprendo spazio a devianze e a comportamenti collusivi. Solo un approccio funzionale, di stampo sostanzialistico, finalizzato a garantire l'effetto utile delle normative di settore, è in grado di ristabilire l'equilibrio e la certezza del diritto. La prima parte di questo scritto è, perciò, dedicata allo studio dei mutamenti sociali, politici ed economici degli ultimi sessanta anni, che hanno visto il passaggio da un forte intervento dello Stato nell'economia all'apertura dei mercati ed ai contestuali processi di privatizzazione. La seconda parte è invece incentrata sull'analisi delle figure dell'organismo di diritto pubblico e dell'impresa pubblica, nozioni di stampo funzionale di origine comunitaria, che sono parabola di un approccio sostanziale atto ad evitare possibili elusioni delle procedure di scelta del contraente, ai sensi dalle Direttive 2004/18/CE e 2004/17/CE, recepite a livello nazionale nel Codice dei contratti pubblici. L'analisi di queste due figure, spesso confuse e sovrapposte tra loro, richiede all'interprete un minuzioso studio della giurisprudenza europea e nazionale, da combinare con le molteplici interpretazioni e critiche dottrinarie e con un inquadramento sistematico della disciplina di riferimento, al fine di poter proporre una lettura delle due nozioni che sia chiara, compatibile con la ratio legis, e che, soprattutto, sia garante del principio di certezza del diritto.

"For most of the past century, Humbug Valley, a forest-hemmed meadow sacred to the Mountain Maidu tribe, was in the grip of a utility company. Washington's White Salmon River was saddled with a fish-obstructing, inefficient dam, and the Timbisha Shoshone Homeland was unacknowledged within the boundaries of Death Valley National Park. Until people decided to reclaim them. In Reclaimers, Ana Maria Spagna drives an aging Buick up and down the long strip of West Coast mountain ranges--the Panamints, the Sierras, the Cascades--and alongside rivers to meet the people, many of them wise women, who persevered for decades with little hope of success to make changes happen. In uncovering their heroic stories, Spagna seeks a way for herself, and for all of us, to take back and to make right in a time of unsettling ecological change. Ana Maria Spagna is the author of several books, most recently Potluck : Community on the Edge of Wilderness"--From publishers website

Test Ride on the Sunnyland Bus chronicles the story of an American family against the backdrop of one of the civil rights movement's lesser-known stories. In January 1957, Joseph Spagna and five other young men waited to board a city bus called the Sunnyland in Tallahassee, Florida. Their plan was simple but dangerous: ride the bus togetherthree blacks and three whitesget arrested, and take their case to the U.S. Supreme Court. Fifty years later Ana Maria Spagna sets off on a journey to understand what happened and why

This contribution aims to underline the construction of the emotional effects of the headlines of the front pages of the three most prestigious showcases of the French national press: Libération, Le Monde and Le Figaro. The corpus covers the period from December 28, 2020 to March 17, 2021, approximately two and a half months after the launch of the vaccination campaign in France. Analysis of this very difficult initial phase makes it possible to trace the argumentative construction of the different media emotions and to reveal the implicitness of the political nature which dictates a position for or against the actors involved in this campaign. Emotions (a generic term including affections and feelings) permeate the headlines, but with varying intensity and according to a breakdown between the affective registers that distinguish them. For several theorists of argumentation, the affective elements concur with the rational element to influence the reader's opinion. So, each newspaper tries to capture the reader through his or her emotionality and, at the same time, to orientate him or her politically. For this purpose, newspapers adapt their emotional communication according to the categories of readers they wish to influence and mobilize. Based on the methodology proposed by Christian Plantin, the comparison of the three newspapers will reveal the different strategies governing the use of affective rhetoric and the logics underlying the emotional content of the titles as well as the perlocutionary effect that each editor wants to produce on this reader by recurring to the appeal to emotions.

Based on the methodology proposed by Christian Plantin, this contribution aims to underline the function of the pathemic orientation of the headlines of the front pages of six prestigious showcases of the Italian and French press, within fifteen days after the three attacks that bloodied France in 2015 and 2016. The comparison of the six newspapers will reveal the different strategies governing the use of affective rhetoric and the implicitness of the political nature of titles.
