Gli “insoddisfatti”. Le potenze revisioniste nella teoria realista delle Relazioni Internazionali

The 2017 National Security Strategy of the United States has raised a renewed and lively debate about revisionism and revisionist powers in world politics. The three research programs within the realist school on International Relations – namely classical realism, neo-realism, and neo-classical realism – investigated these concepts from their very beginning. However, they have particularly addressed two questions about the “dissatisfied” states, those regarding the object (what?) and the causes (why?) of their revisionism.

Does spatial cognitive style affect how navigational strategy is planned?

People orient themselves in the environment using three different, hierarchically organized, spatial cognitive styles: landmark, route, and survey. Landmark style is based on a representation encompassing only visual information (terrain features); route style is based on a representation that connects landmarks and routes using an egocentric (body-centred) frame of reference; survey style is based on a global map-like representation that mainly involves an allocentric (world-centred) frame of reference.

Autocorrelation structure in the macaque dorsolateral, but not orbital or polar, prefrontal cortex predicts response-coding strength in a visually cued strategy task

In previous work, we studied the activity of neurons in the dorsolateral (PFdl), orbital (PFo), and polar (PFp) prefrontal cortex
while monkeys performed a strategy task with 2 spatial goals. A cue instructed 1 of 2 strategies in each trial: stay with
the previous goal or shift to the alternative goal. Each trial started with a fixation period, followed by a cue. Subsequently,
a delay period was followed by a “go” signal that instructed the monkeys to choose one goal. After each choice, feedback

Entrepreneurial universities and strategy: the case of the University of Bari

Purpose: We investigate why entrepreneurial universities choose a particular business strategy focusing on diversification and multinationalisation, and the role of Intellectual Capital (IC) in supporting such strategies.
Design/methodology/approach: The research question is answered through an exploratory case study of the University of Bari, Italy. Data was collected from strategic plans, annual reports, national evaluation reports and semi-structured interviews with the university’s board members and analysed using Secundo et al.’s (2016) collective intelligence framework .

"Mondo reale-tradizionale" e "mondo digitale", strategie aziendali e web intelligence: il futuro del controllo e della gestione delle informazioni

The purpose of this paper is to analyze how the web intelligence may influence the principal dimensions of strategic intelligence, improving the capacity to make right strategic moves. Specifically, the aim is to study the possibilities and the risks, with the related control needs, of using web data and web information in defining strat-egies in the real traditional world, and not only in defining web strategies.
