This text collects the papers presented in Milan during the fist meeting of Sum- mer Conference and School BCS, held at the University of Milano-Bicocca from 20th to 27th June 2012. The aim of THE BORDER CROSSING SEMINAR is at developing a fruitful cul- tural exchange between European countries and the United States of America. Considering the results of this experience from a both scientific and inter-per- sonal viewpoint, we can say that the initiative was a successful story, which we hope can be continued in the years. We want therefore to thank all scholars for their excellent lectures and the tu- toring of students as well as the participants in BA, MA, PhD. studies, who attend- ed the BCS with passion and interest. In particular, we want to express our grat- itude to Giorgia Serughetti, who acted as a responsible for the scientific secretary of the Seminar, for her impeccable and committed work. We want also to thank Lindsay Dun, Courtney Biscan and Caitlin Glimco, who - beside their attendance to the BCS - helped other students, non-native English speakers, to improve the linguistic quality of their papers, in a spirit of mutual co-operation. The Seminar would not have been possible without the financial and institu- tional support of many American and Italian colleagues. In particular, we thank Jim McAdams and Anthony Monta of the Nanovic Institute for European Studies at the University of Notre Dame; Michael Desch, the Chair of the Department of Political Science at the University of Notre Dame; Joshua Kaplan, the Director of Undergraduate Studies in the Department of Political Science at the University of Notre Dame; the Kroc Institute for International Peace Studies; the Institute for Scholarship in the Liberal Arts at the University of Notre Dame; J. Nicholas Entrikin, Vice President and Associate Provost of Internationalization at the Uni- versity of Notre Dame; Neil Delaney and the Glynn Family Honors Program at the University of Notre Dame; the Undergraduate Research Opportunity Program at the University of Notre Dame for their generous support of the inaugural Border Crossing Seminar. We also thank Giorgio Grossi and Carla Facchini, former director and pres- ent director of the Department of Sociology and Social Research of the Univer- sity of Milano-Bicocca, for the support given to the organization of the BCS; Elena dell’Agnese for the international conference “Bordersapes III”; . Michele Cometa, Director of the PhD in Cultural Studies at the University of Palermo. In particular, I’m grateful to the US – Italy Fulbright Commission for the support of my scholarship as distinguished chair, which gave the opportunity to initiate the collaboration with the University of Notre Dame and to establish the BCS. The Border Crossing Seminar was also related to the project of national in- terest on “Political Imagination and Borders. Citizens and Strangers,” supported by the Ministry of Education, Research, and University (PRIN 2009), and the Bicocca Departmental Research Centre, Public Reasoning and Global Society in Action (PRAGSIA). The BCS is only at the beginning but very promising because it has the aim to cross borders and to increase a productive inter-cultural dialogue against any prejudice and violence. A global democracy can be built starting also from these experiences. Marina Calloni Introduction hen Professor Marina Calloni of the University of Milano-Bicocca visited Wthe University of Notre Dame in 2011 as a distinguished Fulbright facul- ty fellow in the Nanovic Institute for European Studies and the Department of Political Science, she instantly began to form networks of friends and colleagues who worked across traditional disciplinary bounds in striving to understand common areas of scholarly interest. Crossing borders was a normal academic activity for her—not for the mere thrills of travel and trespass, but for the more serious sake of fostering relationships across those borders we erect, often to the detriment of building lines of communication and new pathways to shared knowledge, between our disciplines. Although her project of crossing borders in scholarly life has serious implications for what John Stuart Mill called the transformation of “dead dogma” into “living truth” through full, frequent, and fearless discussion, it is also fun for the same reasons it is serious.(Mill, 1863: 66) Human relationships, whether they grow in a seminar, a university, or a national or international community, give us the joy that inspires us to join that Millian public dialogue of learning. It was Calloni’s idea to bring to life this philosophy of border crossing in the ethical and intellectual form of the Border Crossing Seminar (BCS). The seminar is an annual, weeklong interdisciplinary and international conference and summer school for graduate students and faculty in political theory, poli- tical philosophy, and the social sciences. The themes of the BCS center around questions of global justice, including the issues of cosmopolitanism, inter-cul- tural dialogue, and human rights. Held during June in Milan for the first time in 2012, the BCS is co-organized by the political philosopher Calloni and me, a political theorist at the University of Notre Dame. Walking tours of Milan’s cultural and urban spaces, and conversations with local people, are part of the experiential learning component of the seminar. The seminar features lectures by expert faculty from the University of Milano-Bicocca, the University

    LE MEMORIE DI TRENNO. (Raccolte Da Silvano Acquani)

    LE MEMORIE DI TRENNO. (raccolte da Silvano Acquani). In epoca romana era consuetudine dare agli agglomerati urbani, che si insediavano lungo le grandi arterie, che congiungevano tra loro centri di importanza strategica, commerciale e/o militare, una denominazione corrispondente alla loro distanza, misurata in miglia, dal “municipium” romano, nel nostro caso Mediolanum – Milano. La distanza incisa su cippi in sasso ( le pietre miliari ) è, quindi, testimonianza, sia della presenza dei romani, che di centri abitati. Nella cintura milanese questo fatto è testimoniato da un gran numero di “miliaria”. La grande arteria consolare, che da Mediolanum conduceva ad “Augusta Taurinorum” (Torino) e che oggi corrisponde grosso modo alla via Novara, rappresentava per i traffici romani una importante via di comunicazione. Su questa strada si trovavano Trenno (Trebennius = 3° miglio); Quarto (quarta lapide = 4° miglio); Quinto romano e Settimo milanese, che forse inizialmente erano solo insediamenti militari, stazioni di posta per il cambio di cavalli. Segmento della Tabula Peutingeriana con Mediolanum. CARTE E PERGAMENE TARDOMEDIOEVALI CHE MENZIONANO TRENNO. La prima memoria storica di Trenno porta la data del 17 marzo 877 e risulta in un rogito fra Leone e Sigifrido, preti officiali della chiesa di S. Ambrogio di Milano per un possesso “ in vico et fundo Triennum” nel villaggio e territorio di Trenno. Nel marzo 1017 i decumani, ufficiali e custodi della Basilica di S. Ambrogio, cedono ad Arivaldo di Baggio un campo nel luogo e fondo di Figino, di proprietà della Basilica, ricevendo in cambio un campo nel luogo e fondo di Trenno.

    Lo Spazio Urbano Della Piazza D'armi Di Milano: Relazione Storica

    Lo spazio urbano della Piazza d’Armi di Milano: relazione storica Dott. Giorgio Uberti1 Lo spazio urbano oggi occupato dalla Piazza d’Armi, dalla Caserma Santa Barbara e dall’Ospedale Militare di Milano si estende su una superficie che confina a nord con Via Novara e che comprende Via delle Forze Armate. Queste due strade, la cui esistenza è testimoniata da secoli, avvalorano la rilevanza storica dell’area in oggetto. 1. STORIA ANTICA Via Novara, sebbene disposta lungo un tracciato leggermente diverso da quello attuale, era ed è una delle più importanti strade di collegamento da e per la città, già utilizzata nell’età tardo-imperiale (III - IV secolo dopo Cristo) quando Milano, allora Mediolanum, era una delle due capitali dell’Impero Romano d’Occidente2. Si trattava della via Mediolanum – Novaria – Vercellae, grazie alla quale era possibile raggiungere Aosta, il passo del gran San Bernardo e la Gallia Transalpina3. Nella toponomastica di alcune vicine località milanesi è ancora possibile riconoscere il sistema miliare di questa strada: Quarto Cagnino, Quinto Romano e Settimo Milanese4. Via Forze Armate era una delle strade minori, dettagliatamente descritte all’interno degli Statuti delle strade e delle acque del contado di Milano5 del 1346. Anticamente era chiamata Strada de Bagio, dal nome di un villaggio distante circa sette chilometri dalle mura di Milano, già presente nel X secolo dopo Cristo6. Questa strada si distaccava dall’antica via per Novara presso l’attuale piazza De Angeli, località nella quale, ancora nella prima metà del XX secolo, era presente un ponte sul fiume Olona. È possibile ipotizzare che questa strada fosse già utilizzata in epoca tardo-imperiale per collegare Mediolanum con la località di Cesano Boscone, qui infatti sono stati effettuati svariati rinvenimenti archeologici in grado di dimostrare la presenza di un insediamento pagano del IV secolo dopo Cristo.

Revolution in Rome, 1848 Flag of the Kingdom of Italy, 1861-1946 1. The Early Phase of the Italian Risorgimento, 1815-1848 The settlements reached in 1815 at the Congress of Vienna had restored Austrian domination over the Italian peninsula but had left Italy completely fragmented in a number of small states. The strongest and most progressive Italian state was the Kingdom of Sardinia-Piedmont in north-western Italy. At the Congress of Vienna this state had received the lands of the former Republic of Genoa. This acquisition helped Sardinia-Piedmont expand her merchant fleet and trade centred in the port of Genoa. There were three major obstacles to unity at the time of the Congress of Vienna: The Austrians occupied Lombardy and Venetia in Northern Italy. The Papal States controlled Central Italy. The other Italian states had maintained their independence: the Kingdom of Sardinia, also called Piedmont-Sardinia, the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies (ruler by the Bourbon dynasty) and the Duchies of Tuscany, Parma and Modena (ruled by relatives of the Austrian Habsburgs). During the 1820s the Carbonari secret society tried to organize revolts in Palermo and Naples but with very little success, mainly because the Carbonari did not have the support of the peasants. Then came Giuseppe Mazzini, a patriotic writer who set up a national revolutionary movement known as Young Italy (1831). Mazzini was in favour of a united republic.

  • The Unification of Italy

    The Unification of Italy

    New Dorp High School Social Studies Department AP Global Mr. Hubbs & Mrs. Zoleo The Unification of Italy While nationalism destroyed empires, it also built nations. Italy was one of the countries to form from the territories of the crumbling empires. After the Congress of Vienna in 1815, Austria ruled the Italian provinces of Venetia and Lombardy in the north, and several small states. In the south, the Spanish Bourbon family ruled the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies. Nevertheless, between 1815 and 1848, increasing numbers of Italians were no longer content to live under foreign rulers. Amid growing discontent, two leaders appeared—one was idealistic, the other practical. They had different personalities and pursued different goals. But each contributed to the Unification of Italy. The Movement for Unity Begins In 1832, an idealistic 26-year-old Italian named Guiseppe Mazzini organized a nationalist group called, Young Italy. Similarly, youth were the leaders and custodians of the nineteenth century nationalist movements. The Napoleonic Wars were lead principally by younger men. Napoleon was 35 years of age when crowned Emperor. As nationalism spread across Europe the pattern continued. People over 40 were excluded from Mazzini's organization. During the violent year of 1848, revolts broke out in eight states on the Italian Peninsula. Mazzini briefly headed a republican government in Rome. He believed that nation-states were the best hope for social justice, democracy, and peace in Europe. However, the 1848 rebellions failed in Italy as they did elsewhere in Europe. The foreign rulers of the Italian states drove Mazzini and other nationalist leaders into exile.

    Paris Resilience Strategy FLUCTUAT NEC MERGITUR Front page : Bernard Pedretti/ Mairie de Paris Anne Hidalgo, Mayor of Paris “Fluctuat nec Mergitur”, which translates to “Beaten by the waves but not sunk”, proudly announces our motto. Made official in 1853 by the Baron Haussmann, it had been used by Parisians since the 16th century. Its origins lie in the river’s history, dating back to antiquity! Urban resilience is therefore not a new trend: it is an integral part of urban discourse. The concept was, however, somewhat forgotten at the end of the 20th century, as our societies were convinced that technical solutions would be able to overcome the risks faced by our cities. Today we are confronted with new and great challenges, which affect current and future generations. Climate change, air pollution, growing inequalities, terror threats, persistent water insecurity, the migrant crisis – all these challenges bring cities to the front line. DR/Mairie de Paris Far from inducing anxiety, urban resilience offers solutions to better prepare and adapt cities, their populations, businesses and infrastructures to these I would like to express my sincere thanks to all the challenges. It also provides opportunities to create institutional, business, academic and associated new activities and jobs while improving citizens’ partners, as well as to the municipal teams, for their quality of life. contribution to this very ambitious work, which has only just begun.

Carver A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of The requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS May 2006 Committee: Dr. Douglas J. Forsyth, Advisor Dr. Gary R. Hess ii ABSTRACT Douglas J. Forsyth, Advisor This study examines the role of both the United States and Great Britain during a series of crises that plagued Cyprus from the mid 1950s until the 1974 invasion by Turkey that led to the takeover of approximately one-third of the island and its partition. Initially an ancient Greek colony, Cyprus was conquered by the Ottoman Empire in the late 16th century, which allowed the native peoples to take part in the island’s governance. But the idea of Cyprus’ reunification with the Greek mainland, known as enosis, remained a significant tenet to most Greek-Cypriots. The movement to make enosis a reality gained strength following the island’s occupation in 1878 by Great Britain. Cyprus was integrated into the British imperialist agenda until the end of the Second World War when American and Soviet hegemony supplanted European colonialism. Beginning in 1955, Cyprus became a battleground between British officials and terrorists of the pro-enosis EOKA group until 1959 when the independence of Cyprus was negotiated between Britain and the governments of Greece and Turkey. The United States remained largely absent during this period, but during the 1960s and 1970s came to play an increasingly assertive role whenever intercommunal fighting between the Greek and Turkish-Cypriot populations threatened to spill over into Greece and Turkey, and endanger the southeastern flank of NATO.
