Questo numero monografico, che prosegue la pubblicazione online de La camera blu,entra nello scenario attuale indagando vissuti, percezioni e rappresentazioni politicheche si sviluppano, oggi, intorno alla soggettività femminile. Se con il numero 7 de Lacamera blu (Le politiche del presente), abbiamo focalizzato l"attenzione sull"asimmetriatra i sessi che attraversa la politica, il lavoro e la famiglia, pur in presenza di legislazionisempre più attente al perseguimento dei diritti fondamentali per uomini e donne, quivogliamo piuttosto aprire il dibattito sulle nuove forme di alienazione e auto- etero op-pressione, cresciute silenziosamente nelle pieghe dell"emancipazione. Vogliamo offrirestrumenti multidisciplinari per approfondire i nodi relazionali del rapporto uomo-donna,nell"attuale organizzazione sociale dei Paesi occidentali e di quelli in sviluppo, alle pre-se, in forma diversa, con statuti etico-normativi e spesso giuridicamente superati, masocialmente condivisi, che ne legittimano ancora l"asimmetria. Vogliamo, pertanto,comprendere le collusioni individuali e le strategie relazionali che mantengono la su-bordinazione femminile e inducono la conflittualità tra i sessi, orientando welfare e poli-tiche sociali. ; This new issue, which follows up the online publication of La camera blu, makes itsway through the contemporary scenario by investigating experiences, perceptions andpolitical representations developing nowadays around female subjectivity. While in the7th issue of La camera blu (The policies of the present) we focused our attention on theasymmetries between sexes across politics, work and family, despite being in the pres-ence of legislation increasingly attentive to the pursuit of fundamental rights for womenand men alike, here we intend to open up a debate over the new forms of alienation andself-hetero-oppression which have silently developed behind the creases of emancipa-tion. In doing so, we set out to offer multidisciplinary instruments for deepening ourknowledge about the man-woman relational tangles still present in the current social or-ganization of Western and developing countries, which are still grappling with ethical-normative and often legally outdated, albeit socially shared, statutes, which still legiti-mate this kind of asymmetry. Therefore, we seek to understand the individual collusionsand relational strategies that continue to sustain female subordination, bring about con-flicts between sexes and drive social and welfare policies.

The paper introduces the World War I memorials in Hungary within the historiographical framework of the 'memory boom'. It discusses the artistic sources that were used in their formation, their characteristics and types. Special attention is paid to the description of their role as a communication tool in the hands of contemporary politics. Brief overview concentrating on legal requirements and on elements of the commemoration acts provides a historical and social background for the case study. The center memorial that still exists in the capital of Hungary, is analyzed thoroughly with detailed descriptions and contextualization. The three phases of the National Heroes' Monument can be seen as the three sections of Hungarian history in 20th century, and an artistic realization of the contemporary power's message about the given section of the past. At the end, the author places the paper's topic into the scholarly discourse of nation building, by adapting the notion of imagined community of Anderson, Calhoun and Finlayson.

The concomitant subjection of women and animals was denounced as early as 1990 by Carol J. Adams in The Sexual Politics of Meat, where she identified the intersections of discourses that aim at the subjugation of women and animals and censured those practices that animalize women and feminize animals for the better exploitation of both. More recent ecofeminist debates, however, have highlighted women's vindication of animality with the aim to recuperate one's repressed animal nature and rebel against oppressive anthropocentric and androcentric constrictions (Velasco Sesma 2017). This article focuses on contemporary Irish and Galician poetry concerned with the performativity of animality and womanhood in contemporary society and engaged in the emancipation of women and animals from patriarchal oppression. Ireland and Galicia have shared longstanding cultural bonds and, since the 1990s, have experienced a conspicuous accession of women writers who have participated in the feminist and environmental debates of their respective communities. This article exposes the intersecting discourses and practices that subdue animals and women, as evinced in contemporary Irish and Galician writing, and shows how poetry can become a locus of resistance and woman-animal complicity in the struggle for mutual emancipation.

After 9/11 the problem of "ungrievable lives" has taken a central place in Judith Butler's philosophical work. However, in her latest works, she tries to imagine a new kind of political mobilization not only capable of breaking into the hegemonic cultural framework, which is responsible for the exclusion of some lives from the human domain, but also capable of putting at centre-stage the bodily dimension of all human beings with their needs and demands. In the first part of this article I give a brief overview of the processes of disavowal and derealisation, focusing especially on the media representation of contemporary wars that influence our cognitive schemes by applying a different human value to other populations and social groups. In the second part of the article I discuss the bodily mobilizations of those very subjects whose lives are made unworthy and unliveable by virtue of current "frameworks of intelligibility".

Reconstruction by 'scattered fragments' of the history of Europe, from myth to contemporary political philosophy, following the concept of the Polis as the mediation place in the conflict between law and violence. Mediation impossible, because the very origin of the law is just the violence, that it should regulate. Of this impossibility the contemporary nihilism is the awareness; the modern Metropolis – of which Vitiello depicts the 'peculiar' logic – is the actual experience. The conflicts of our time testify with the evidence of facts the great difficulty in accepting this 'new' logic. ; Reconstruction by 'scattered fragments' of the history of Europe, from myth to contemporary political philosophy, following the concept of the Polis as the mediation place in the conflict between law and violence.

The article examines various theatrical experiences dealing with the theme of travel, in relation to its double meaning of migration and tourism. The connection between theatre and travel concern several dimensions. From the metaphorical one, to the wandering attitude of theatre companies and to the ethnographic vocation of the 20th-century avant-garde. By combining reflections coming from the mobility turn (Sheller e Urry 2006; Cresswell 2010; Elliott e Urry 2010; Sheller 2018; Musarò e Moralli, 2019) and the ethnographic turn (Clifford 1988; Foster 1996; Rutten et al. 2013; Grimshaw e Ravetz 2015), we will observe how theatre artists can expand the understanding of the social practices of contemporary mobility through their theatrical research as well as through their lived experiences. The article will then trace several cases in which migration and/or tourism act as a dramaturgical trigger for reflective practices on theatre and politics, expressed through the participatory character of some of the works examined. More specifically, the theme of migration will be observed through the works of Ateliersi, Teatro delle Albe, Motus, Davide Enia, while the touristic dimension will be explored by looking at the performances Menoventi and Kepler 452. ; A partire dalla originaria connessione fra il teatro e le dimensioni del viaggio, non solo dal punto di vista metaforico ma nell'attitudine errante dei teatranti del passato e nella vocazione etnografica degli esponenti delle avanguardie novecentesche, l'articolo indaga le modalità con cui alcune realtà teatrali molto diverse fra loro affrontano il tema del viaggio nelle diverse angolature indicate nella call: migrazione e turismo. Facendo convergere le riflessioni che si sono innescate intorno al mobility turn (Sheller e Urry 2006; Cresswell 2010; Elliott e Urry 2010; Sheller 2018; Musarò e Moralli, 2019) e all'ethnografic turn (Clifford 1988; Foster 1996; Rutten et al. 2013; Grimshaw e Ravetz 2015) si osserverà attraverso le ricerche teatrali come l'esperienza vissuta da ciascun artista possa ampliare i contesti che stanno intorno alle diverse forme di pratiche sociali della mobilità contemporanea dentro alle quali convergono gli studi sul turismo e le migrazioni. Si tratta di rintracciare i casi in cui migrazione e/o turismo come inneschi drammaturgici si rivelano degli interessanti ambiti di osservazione della pratica riflessiva del teatro e della tendenza politica, che emerge non solo dalle tematiche ma anche dal carattere partecipativo di alcune delle opere. Da una parte il fenomeno migratorio viene osservato attraverso l'approfondimento di alcuni lavori scenici di Ateliersi, Teatro delle Albe, Motus, Davide Enia. Dall'altra il fenomeno turistico viene osservato attraverso l'analisi di alcuni lavori di Menoventi e Kepler 452.

The chapter aims to provide an overview of the main challenges of foreign policy analysis in contemporary politics. After introducing the ways in which foreign policy analysis is addressed in the internationalist political literature, with a focus on policy formulation and decision-making understood as public policy, the authors focus on some of the main challenges that foreign policy scholars are called upon to face. In particular, the themes of (de)globalization and (dis)information are deepened, pointing out the reinforcement of the state and the risks connected to an increasing cognitive confusion.

L'articolo analizza tre ambiti che raramente hanno incrociato il loro percorso con la political communication: l'arte contemporanea, l'architettura e il fumetto. Il tentativo è quello di capire come tali ambiti espressivi ci possano dire qualcosa sulla politica e sulla comunicazione politica, e come essi stessi possano essere utilizzati come mezzi di comunicazione politica, con i loro codici peculiari e le loro specifiche caratteristiche espressive. L'articolo procede partendo da considerazioni generali relative a ciascun ambito, per poi calare lo sguardo su alcune pubblicazioni dell'ultimo decennio (una per ciascuna delle forme artistico-espressive prescelte) che hanno tentato di portare nel dibattito accademico l'attenzione sul ruolo (i ruoli) svolti dall'arte, l'architettura e il fumetto nelle modalità in cui si può fare comunicazione del potere e della politica, o di come si possa parlarne. Ciò che emerge è che il rapporto tra le arti e la comunicazione politica non ci mostra solo il compiuto processo di spettacolarizzazione della politica e di politicizzazione dello spettacolo (nelle forme della "politica pop"), ma anche come proprio il campo delle arti ci possa dire qualcosa sulle forme contemporanee dell'anti-politica e della satira nei confronti del potere.The article analyzes three areas that rarely have crossed their path with the scholarship of political communication: contemporary art, architecture and comics. The aim is to understand how these areas can say something interesting about politics and political communication, and how they can be used as a means of political communication, with their unique codes and their specific expressive characteristics. The article starts from general considerations relating to each area, and eventually focuses on the analysis of some publications of the last decade (one for each of the artistic-expressive forms chosen) that have focused on the role played by art, architecture and comics in the understanding of political communication. What emerges is that the relationship between the arts and political communication shows the fulfillment of the process of both the spectacularization of politics and the politicization of the spectacle (in the forms of "pop politics"); besides, the field of the arts can say something about the contemporary forms of "anti-politics" and political satire.

Understanding the space deployed by communication technologies requires a political thinking that faces the new challenges posed by digital mediascape. Use these technologies without grasping the political feature, without deciphering the new conflicts that they stage, it means, on the one hand, remain subservient to the narcotic power of technology and, on the other, lack the dimension of contemporary politics. Many pre-texts related to the science fiction genre can be useful to develop such a reflection. Among the many stories, comics, films that lend themselves to the purpose, one of the founding texts was the novel Snow Crash by Neal Stephenson: it is still useful as a guide to understand the relationship between space of flows and space of places, the conflicts necessary to emergence of new subjectivities (hackers), the unfolding of a scene open to a plurality of distributions of the sensible. ; Comprendere lo spazio dispiegato dalle tecnologie di comunicazione richiede un pensiero politico all'altezza delle nuove sfide poste dal mediascape digitale. Utilizzare queste tecnologie senza coglierne la cifra politica e cioè senza decifrare i nuovi conflitti che esse mettono in scena significa, da un lato, rimanere asserviti al potere narcotico della tecnica e, dall'altro, mancare la dimensione della politica contemporanea. Possono essere utili a sviluppare una tale riflessione pre-testi espressivi legati al genere fantascienza. Tra i tanti racconti, fumetti, film che si prestano allo scopo, uno dei testi fondativi è stato il romanzo Snow Crash di Neal Stephenson: vale ancora come utile guida per affrontare il rapporto tra spazio dei flussi e spazio dei luoghi, i conflitti necessari all'emergere di nuove soggettività (gli hacker), il dispiegarsi di una scena aperta a una pluralità di partizioni del sensibile. ; Compreender o espaço utilizado pelas tecnologias de comunicação requer um pensamento político que confronte os novos desafios colocados pelo horizonte de media digital. Usar essas tecnologias sem entender a sua característica política, i.e., sem decifrar os novos conflitos que elas apresentam, significa, por um lado, permanecer submisso ao poder narcótico da tecnologia, e por outro lado, recusar-se a ver a dimensão da política contemporânea. Entre várias histórias, quadrinhos, filmes que se prestam a esse papel, um dos textos fundadores foi o romance Snow Crash de Neal Stephenson: ainda hoje se apresenta como um guia útil para compreender a relação entre espaço de partilhas [space of flows] e espaço de lugares, os conflitos necessários à emergência de novas subjetividades (hackers) e o desabrochar de uma cena que se abre à pluralidade das distribuições do sensível.

This chapter deals with the relationships between the depoliticization and repoliticisation dynamics concerning public actions and the framing of the collective issues and the most important phenomenon of change affecting contemporary politics and political systems, populism. Contemporary populisms can be interpreted as a consequence of the depoliticisation processes triggered by the advent of post-democracy and neoliberalism, as well as of the connected processes of globalization and Europeanization of public policies. Later, the global economic and financial crisis and the austerity-driven policies added new strength to the populist reactions. Analyzing the Italian case the authors try to understand whether the agendas and policies carried out by populists leading governments or heavily influencing policy making induce forms of re-politicization of both public actions and the related issues. The chapter provides evidence on the potential effects of re-politicization caused by populism.

Cittadinanze offers a new perspective on the history of the State, understood in the aristotelian sense as the whole of its citizens. The volume contains twelve essays dedicated to the possible ways in which citizenship took shape during the contemporary age, analyzing the various historical concretions. Not a single, but a plural citizenship, an object and an epistemological instrument of many declinations - institutional, theoretical-political, juridical, philosophical. A reconstruction conducted through different places and times, ranging from the French and American revolutions to the immateriality of the digital divide. An original exam that interrogates the stories, practices and symbols that have linked individuals to their political communities.

Nowadays experts and expertise appear to be a central feaure in global governance. The more society gets complex the more political powers need to access to expert knowlegde. Apparently, contemporary politics has lost its old-fashoin goal of representivennes of specific societal interests to become a mere technocratic practice over efficient policy-making, insulating broad policy matters from public debate However, a depper understanding of the origins of conceptual tools in the studying of professional expertise show us the ambiavalent significance of expertise in global political economy. Theoretical and historical insights to the study of politics of expertise bring us to the study of the creation of newer expertise in the development of social relazions of propriety . Indeed, through the case study of Italian state-cadre class and public economists, the arguments hold that expertise could be conceptualised as a powerful device of creative strategies reproduction of dominant international division of labour as well as a powerful framework of managment of social conflicts. A narratative sustains the analysis of the politics of expertise in the making of neocostitutional-neoliberal Europe.

Questo volume raccoglie i contributi del convegno, organizzato dalla Società Filosofica Italiana, dal titolo "Tradizione e innovazione", svoltosi a Macerata nel novembre del 2018. I saggi qui contenuti contribuiscono a promuovere, all'interno del dibattito culturale nazionale, una riflessione critica sul binomio "tradizione" e "innovazione", mostrando la fecondità del passato e della tradizione filosofica per leggere il presente e le sue dinamiche, e per costruire strategie future. ; This paper provides a reflection on the relations between Sextus Empiricus' neo-pyrrhonism and the philosophic vision of Michael Oakeshott. Even if Oakeshott defines himself as a sceptic, he quotes Sextus only once throughout all his work. But just this one quote reveals some interesting analogies between the relevance of the tradition and the practice life in some social and political contexts, characterised by the contingency and the conditions of the time. Ancient Scepticism, assimilated by way of Montaigne and Hobbes, the philosophers who gave Oakeshott an idea of the human condition suspended between passion and reason, conservation and change, is reinterpreted bu the English philosopher in a original and personal way, both in his anti-dogmatic conception of politics and of philosophy from the point of view of attitude and not as a doctrine.

Politics as a profession constitutes, a hundred years after its first formulation, the most interesting contribution to a definition of the role of politics in society. The structure of the essay allows us to reconnect the threads of a discourse that links the reflection on the nature of the political profession to the broader framework of Weber's sociology of power. In fact, there are several interpretations that can be adopted: 1) the philological reconstruction of the text; 2) framing in the broader Weberian production; 3) the openings that the text makes towards the professionalization of contemporary politics and its relationship with democracy; finally, 4) the relationship between ethics and politics. This last perspective opens up more to the themes that have formed the leitmotif of Weber's work, namely the debate on the process of rationalization of the modern West, addressed by Weber in the Sociology of Religions. It is in this last part of the conference that, through the famous distinction between the ethics of responsibility and the ethics of principles, the Weberian lesson deals with "the ethical irrationality of the world" and the consequent "polythene of values". This confrontation brings politics back to the issue of responsibility for choices and the difficulty faced by anyone claiming ethical superiority who denies reality in the name of a principle superior to it.
