AbstractThis article explores the relationship between policy narratives and the design of the Italian border management and external migration control regime in the last two decades. First, drawing from the theory of social construction and policy design and through a qualitative application of the Narrative Policy Framework, the article traces the evolution of narratives developed by key actors in government. Second, it investigates the design of the Italian externalization policy. Empirical material is drawn from government documents and decision-makers' parliamentary interventions, press conferences, speeches, newspaper interviews and op-eds. The evidence shows that the dominant narratives have remained constant over time. Humanitarian rhetoric has been mobilized to justify and legitimize the implementation of security measures through bilateral agreements signed with African countries. The implications of such a design are relevant in that it poses serious concerns in terms of respect for migrants' human rights. Overall, the article offers new insights into the empirical investigation of policy narratives and sheds light on the role of narratives in the social construction of migration policy design.

This report explores the development of the Italian reception regime between 2011 and 2018. The aim is to study the legal and policy framework, to map the institutions and actors involved in implementation, and to assess policy coherence with respect to international and EU standards. The report firstly traces the evolution of legal provisions and policies and describes in details the functioning of the multi-level system of reception, that is organized into the three main phases: first aid and assistance, first reception, and second reception. Secondly, the main issues at stake are reported, and the discrepancy between norms and practices – as well coordination problems between diverse actors at different levels of government – are scrutinized.

This report explores the border management and migration control regime in Italy, analysing the development of its legal and policy framework and the institutions and actors involved in implementation. In particular, the primary aim is to assess whether Italian border management and migration control measures have been preventing the legitimate cross-border flows of migrants seeking asylum. In formulating policy recommendations, the report concludes that Italy should reinforce the 'legal channels' for asylum seekers to access the Italian asylum system. Currently, such channels are in effect guaranteed by non-governmental actors only. Moreover, blocking the migratory flows in the countries of origin/transit – preventing migrants from seeking asylum – should not be seen as the primary goal of the overall border management policy. In this regard, the Italian externalization strategy has in fact been mainly focused on limiting cross-border flows of migrants and therefore the legitimate movement of individuals seeking asylum.

AbstractThis paper explores the dynamics of health system decentralization and recentralization in Italy, investigating why and how the territorial organization of the health system has changed over time. Drawing from discursive and historical institutionalism, the explanatory framework revolves around the role of ideational and institutional factors. The methods include process tracing and interpretive‐discourse analysis. Empirical material is drawn from documents and in‐depth interviews to experts and decision‐makers. Through the analysis of the reform trajectories in light of decentralization and recentralization processes, the paper shows that the territorial organization of the Italian health system has changed through a mechanism of gradual transformative change that I here call ideational and institutional bricolage, which involves the interplay between ideas, discourse, and institutions.

Eu law tends to reach an independent notion of «public morality», which should be autonomous at both conceptual and Terminological levels; this attempt leads away from the «general clauses» used in the domestic law of the Member States, highly informed by their domestic cultural background. This process displays some significant problems in legal translation and its political consequences. The interconnection between culture, language and translation, and the consequences that Eu law harmonization provokes on these issues for the legislations of Member States, are of utmost importance in the relationship between biotechnologies and law. The Eu centralizing effort by means of a language «revolution» seems to neutralize the content of these concepts, which have moral and social connotations linked to the cultural and legal background of the different Member States.

Questa tesi si pone l'obiettivo di analizzare i temi della valutazione e del rendimento nel pubblico impiego, settore che, nell'ultimo decennio, è stato intensamente investito da azioni del legislatore che ne hanno mutato la natura, la sostanza e le dinamiche. In particolare si sofferma sulla tematica della valutazione e gestione delle risorse umane dopo l'introduzione della Riforma Brunetta (d.lgs. 150/2009) quindi si passerà a trattare delle principali riforme legislative che la Pubblica amministrazione ha subito dagli anni Novanta a oggi. Infine si analizzerà il sistema di valutazione presente nell'azienda ospedaliera pisana.

En la década de 1970 en América Latina, más específicamente en Argentina, pudimos evidenciar la irrupción de los jóvenes en la escena política y social. Estas juventudes venían a romper con lo tradicionalmente dado y en este sentido, venían a hacer política por otros canales y otras formas por los cuales la sociedad no estaba acostumbrada. Podemos observar, a partir de 1970 y más específicamente 1973 un acercamiento de las juventudes y de otros sectores, como la clase media, hacia el peronismo, un fenómeno que no se venía dando hasta el momento. El objetivo de este trabajo es analizar a través de la historia de la Unión de Estudiantes Secundarios -una organización de carácter peronista- en la escuela Superior de Comercio "Libertador General San Martín" entre los años 1973 – 1976, el acercamiento de la juventud que asistía a la escuela media al peronismo, y como se dio la historia de esta agrupación en los tres cortos pero intensos años de existencia. ; During the 1970's in Latin America, more specifically in Argentina, we could see an emergence of young people in the political and social scene. These young people came to break with which was traditionally given, and they followed politics in a nontraditional way, through other channels and other forms to which society was not used to. From there, we can observe, from 1970 and more specifically in 1973, an immersion of young people and of other social classes, such as the Middle Class, in Peronism, a phenomenon that had not been happening until that moment. The aim of this work is to analyze the approach of young people who attended secondary school to Peronism, grouping around the Union of Secondary Students, a Peronist grouping. From this, we intend to study the history of this group at the Superior School of Commerce "Libertador General San Martín", between the years 1973 – 1976, the approach of young people who attended that school to Peronism and how was the history of the Unión Estudiantes Secundarios during those short but intense years of existence. ...
