The paper proposes first a «guide» to the practice of refereeing, presenting some prominent examples of «how» are evaluated the products submitted for publication in journals. The examples allow understanding what are the procedures used and the profiles on which assessment is required (originality, structure, data correctness, accuracy of references, etc.). Are then presented some of the most significant problems that the vast literature on peer review has highlighted, in particular: how effective it is, that is able to detect misconduct (falsification of data, plagiarism, etc.), how much is fair, that is able to avoid the creation of systematic discrimination against certain groups of researchers or nonconventional shapes and innovative research, how efficient, ie not responsible for slowing the spread of new research and overloading the best researchers.

The paper deals with the problematic relation between literature and sociology. The use of literary sources has generally been intended as a sort of embellishment of the often inelegant sociological speech. The author argues that literary narratives may be also adopted as an appropriate source of data, provided that social scientists take into account the methodological paradox of fictional texts used to understand non-fictional social phenomena. By confronting with an essay by Peter Laslett, in which a cautious use of literary sources is advocated, the paper attempts to show the truth value of literary texts, by chiefly making reference to Paul Ricoeur's concept of mimesis. The paper underlines, moreover, that the use of literary sources by social scientists entails a sociological translation and an unavoidable reduction of the complexity of the literary work.

The aim of this essay is to reflect on the governance of unvaccinated Italian children aged between zero and six years, due to the new regulatory system on mandatory vaccination in Italy (Law Decree no. 73/2017, converted into Law no. 119/2017). In order to strengthen and protect the right to health, the Italian government first, and then the lawmakers, set forth a specific prohibition preventing unvaccinated children from attending preschool, whether public or private. The first part of this paper deals with the opportunity to translate the access to preschool in the language of fundamental rights. It will then move to a deep analysis of D.-L. no. 73/2017 and its coercive system, with a view to highlighting contradictions and paradoxes therein. The paper will also argue that such legal approach to the phenomenon creates a perverse mechanism that affects children twice because of their parents' choices, who not only deny children mandatory vaccination, but also prevent them from attending preschool. Even in the light of the recent proposal for a Council recommendation issued by the European Commission to strengthen cooperation against the vaccine hesitancy, the essay will finally tackle the issue of a possibly different governance for reducing the number of unvaccinated children.

This paper aims at analyzing the Italian diplomacy toward Yemen during Fascism, and the specifi c role of Jacopo Gasparini. In fact, the Kingdom of Italy was the fi rst country, thanks to the Italo-Yemeni treaty of 1926, to recognize Yemen as a sovereign State, becoming its main political and economic partner. The treaty was the result of the diplomatic work promoted by the governor of Eritrea Jacopo Gasparini (1879-1941), who appears as the architect of an original "peripheral action" directed towards Yemen which had the objective of making the Eritrean Colony the center of Italy's economic and political infl uence in the Red Sea and the Horn of Africa.

The translocal perspective in the socio-legal analysis of borders. In this paper, I will first explain the theoretical concept of “trans-local legalities”, departing from the debate around transnational law, then I will apply it to the socio-legal study of border control. Such concept provides us with a theoretical lens to observe the transformations of law that: a) occur in other sites than the traditional ones of law-making processes, and b) develop from below, namely, from the encounter between local struggles and transnational law. This concept provides thus some tools to rethink the relationship between law and borders. Although illegalised and undeportable migrants are invisible to law, their very presence in host societies reveals the emergence of new forms of normativity, through which these subjectivities are produced, acknowledged and regulated, resulting from the intersection between legal and normative processes at the transnational level. This situation raises some crucial questions: what is law when it comes to borders? On what scale does law operate in this field? On what level can law be transformed? Is it possible to use law to enhance inclusion?. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Working poverty is a phenomenon that is only marginally on the agenda of policymakers. Studies on the working poor, which are usually based on sample data, fail to put the oeil-de-boeuf on the most vulnerable. This paper aims at observing the characteristics of the Ambrosian working poor with the focus on natives and migrants by experimental administrative data from Istat to identify specific areas of poverty risk. To this end, logistic regressions and tree models of the poverty despite work as a function of socio-demographic variables have been specified. Both individual worker and family variables were considered. The results, in line with the reference literature, allow for an in-depth spatial and sub-population analysis resulting from the combination of the study dimensions for which there are high risks of in-work poverty, for example citizenship and household work intensity.

The Westminster Government in the UK has implemented a series of significant changes to the way social care is organised and provided in England, including the use of personal budgets and direct payments. Advocates of this approach claim it will deliver more personalised care to budget holders. This paper examines key English policies underpinning these changes, reviewing social policy analysis and research evidence of their impact to consider implications for older social care users. It suggests that personal budgets and direct payments have partly been a response to demands for greater control over care from younger adults with disabilities and that policies and guidance often reflect the interests of this constituency rather than older people. Current research evidence tends to suggest that older people achieve less satisfactory outcomes from personal budgets than younger people. The paper argues for the re-discovery of person-centred care, rather than personalisation, as a way of addressing this important policy issue. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Data linkage is a practice that consists in the linkage of survey data to administrative records held by different bodies, such as government departments, local authorities and universities. This practice has become increasingly popular in the survey world in the recent years. Indeed, a number of surveys have planned and are planning to link their survey data to the respondents' administrative records. For example, following on a 2009 German pilot study, many countries that participate in the Survey for Health, Aging and Retirement in Europe (SHARE) intend to perform data linkage following the survey. The aim of this paper is to discuss the research potential of linking survey data to administrative records, to reflect on the methodological issues involved in performing data linkage, and to present the case study of the UK survey Understanding Society. The UK household longitudinal study. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The transformations characterizing the Italian university and research system reproduce a constant oscillation between autonomy and responsibility. A new pathway has been paved with the introduction of evaluation and the creation of an agency with a specific mandate for managing it, the National Agency for the Evaluation of Universities and Research Institutes (ANVUR). The process of institutional creation has given rise to a new postbureaucratic model, inspired by independence and professionalism principles. Specific organizational devices have been implemented to this aim, such as the appointment procedures of the agency's Governing Board as well as the introduction of a new officer profile, the technical officer for evaluation, working side by side administrative staff, to serve the evaluation scope. In this paper, the agency's organizational model will be analysed, together with the main characteristics and the principles of the agency in the framework of the Italian university and research system.

This paper discusses the criminal offense of non-consensual dissemination of sexually explicit images and videos under Article 612-ter of the Italian Criminal Code as a form of gender-based violence. According to this assumption, a gender approach is crucial for both a sociological understanding of the phenomenon and prevention purposes. After an in-depth review of the relevant sociological, IT and legal literature, as well as of the Italian law and case-law, the essay tries to suggest a series of preventive measures and, additionally, support measures for the offended parties.

The managerial transformation of Higher Education rules the university according to criteria of business efficiency and accountability (e. g. competitive diversification between academic structures, use of performance indicators, administrative and standardised evaluation of research, reward systems). In this paper we aim to investigate the university's managerialisation implications on the researcher's self-understanding, the pressures it puts on her/his ethos and professional ethics, and the reactions it elicits. In particular, we explore the focal points of experience, practices of self, counter-conducts and points of resistance expressed in appeals, editorial initiatives and movements which have briefly gained national prominence. By using a qualitative methodology through twelve in-depth interviews, we have identified three discursive focuses: the critique of the centralised device of evaluation and academic management, the resistance through the form of movement and processes of subjectivation and, finally, the salience of a gender point of view transversal to these dimensions.
