Questo volume vuole fare il punto su “La lunga storia del nuovo cognome”, titolo che sintetizza una delle più significative battaglie della Rete per la Parità e di altre associazioni e istituzioni che, da anni, si impegnano perché possa trovare finalmente compimento quanto previsto dalla sentenza n. 286 del 2016 della Corte costituzionale. Dal 2016, quindi, se i genitori sono d’accordo, è possibile aggiungere il cognome della madre a quello paterno; ma non basta: occorre una riforma organica del cognome – definita indifferibile proprio nella sentenza della Corte – unitamente alla diffusione di una maggiore consapevolezza, presso la cittadinanza, di cosa significhi e implichi il...

"Bioreboot features nineteen projects - illustrated with extensive plans, photographs, and renderings - along with essays and an interview, providing the most comprehensive monograph to date of this elusive, intriguing firm, led by Francois Roche and Stephanie Lavaux. Despite working with oppositonal relationships; machinery versus nature; purity versus corruption; paranoia versus rationality - theirs is an architecture whose primary aim is the ecological and social improvement of the place in which it exists. Bioreboot is a thought-provoking leap into the future and a clarion call for the development of a new relationship between contemporary architecture and the socionatural world." --Book Jacket.

Within those changes, reforms do not go ‘as planned’ but, as is always the case with processes of rationali- tion, have a series of unintended effects. At the same time it becomes incre- ingly clear who in this process are the winners and who are the losers, although this is still subject to fluctuation and change. This can be illustrated by two - amples from current events: Where the range of taught courses is concerned, as part of the Bologna Process the new structuring of student study paths and their organisation is aimed at unifying the...
