Cognition of the Law
This book’s basic hypothesis – which it proposes to test with a cognitive-sociological approach – is that legal behavior, like every form of human behavior, is directed and framed by biosocial constraints that are neither entirely genetic nor exclusively cultural. As such, from a sociological perspective the law can be seen as a super-meme, that is, as a biosocial constraint that develops only in complex societies. This super-meme theory, by highlighting a fundamental distinction between defensive and assertive biases, might explain the false contradiction between law as a static and historical phenomenon, and law as a dynamic and promotional element. Socio-legal scholars today have to...
Black Women and Energies of Resistance in Nineteenth-Century Haitian and American Literature
Black Women and Energies of Resistance in Nineteenth-Century Haitian and American Literature intervenes in traditional narratives of 19th-century American modernity by situating Black women at the center of an increasingly connected world. While traditional accounts of modernity have emphasized advancements in communication technologies, animal and fossil fuel extraction, and the rise of urban centers, Mary Grace Albanese proposes that women of African descent combated these often violent regimes through diasporic spiritual beliefs and practices, including spiritual possession, rootwork, midwifery, mesmerism, prophecy, and wandering. It shows how these energetic acts of resistance were carried out on scales large and small: from the constrained corners of the garden plot to the expansive circuits of global migration. By examining the concept of energy from narratives of technological progress, capital accrual and global expansion, this book uncovers new stories that center Black women at the heart of a pulsating, revolutionary world.

The PCI Artists
This book examines the artistic policies of the Italian Communist Party (PCI) during the early post-war years (1944–1951), after the defeat of Fascism in Europe and the outbreak of the Cold War. It brings together theoretical debates on artists’ political engagement and an extensive critical apparatus, providing the reader with an historical framework for wider reflections on the relationship between art and politics. After 1944, the PCI became the biggest Communist organisation in the West, placing Italy in an ambiguous position regarding the other European countries. Nevertheless, the immediate strategy of the Communists was not revolution, but liberation from Fascism and the establish...

L'esploratore perso nell'oblio
Le strade di una città sono la plastica testimonianza della sua memoria, anche quella rimossa, come nel caso del colonialismo italiano. A Vittorio Bottego, esploratore parmigiano della fine dell’Ottocento, la propria città natale ha dedicato un ruolo di primo piano nella toponomastica, intitolazione di una scuola e un monumento posto all’esterno della stazione ferroviaria. Nonostante questa presenza diffusa la figura di Bottego, come quella di molti altri protagonisti del colonialismo italiano, rimane per i più avvolta in una densa nebbia, nutrita di mito e campanilismo provinciale, che da un lato ne rende incerti i contorni reali e dall’altro rafforza il paradigma degli “italiani brava gente”. Tramite la figura di Vittorio Bottego, dunque, i saggi di questo volume cercano di rispondere a una domanda molto semplice: oltre ai segni concreti visibili negli spazi urbani, rimane in noi anche qualcos’altro di quello sguardo coloniale, introiettato a tal punto da non saperlo più distinguere dal resto?
