In the Poets’ Footsteps
Aimed not only at literature enthusiasts, but also at those who love to travel along less beaten paths, In the Poets’ Footsteps: Literature, Tourism, and Promotion tells the story of literary tourism between the beginning of the 1800s and today. Giovanni Capecchi surveys the methods most used today, namely printed and online literary guides, that offer a wide panorama of writers' homes and evaluates literary festivals as events capable of giving cultural and economic opportunities to the territories that host them.

The Struggle Against Enforced Disappearance and the 2007 United Nations Convention
Enforced disappearance is one of the most serious human rights violations. It constitutes an autonomous offence and a crime under international law on account of its multiple and continuing character. It is not a phenomenon of the past, nor is it geographically limited to Latin America: such scourge is widespread today and on the increase in other continents. For more than twenty-five years, relatives of disappeared people worldwide have insisted on the pressing need for an international legally binding instrument against enforced disappearances. 2006 is the year of the adoption of the International Convention on the Protection of All Persons from Enforced Disappearances, which represents the result of several legislative and jurisprudential developments that are duly analyzed in this book. The Convention has been opened for signature in February 2007.

Soffro dunque siamo
La depressione, è stato detto, è la malattia del ventunesimo secolo. Gli antidepressivi rappresentano una delle principali componenti della spesa farmaceutica pubblica e stanno emergendo forme del disagio psichico che non erano altrettanto rilevanti nella psicopatologia del Novecento: disturbi di panico, disturbi borderline, anoressia, bulimia, fenomeni di ritiro sociale. Questo «contagio», cui la pandemia ha fatto da moltiplicatore, ci dice molto sulla natura della nostra civiltà ipermoderna e neoliberale – quella che ha preso corpo negli anni Ottanta all'insegna del motto thatcheriano: «La società non esiste. Esistono solo gli individui». Grazie a una ricerca lucida e incentrata ...
