The data and considerations in this article were collected and analyzed throughout a fieldwork research in Beit Sahour (West Bank), which aimed at studying the working and living conditions of olive-wood craftsmen. The present paper intends to broaden that analysis and draw the complex frame that operates onto the Palestinian population both socially and economically. Processes of inclusion and exclusion integrate each other rather than simply being opposed: within such a frame, Israeli policies are shaped to exercise control over the territory through strategies of spatio-cide (Hanafi) and over the population through the discipline of mobility as well as through the imposition of a regime of discrimination within the local communities.

The project on music in contemporary circus, with a focus on the Circo Paniko, started in 2018, when the nomadic collective arrived in Cagliari. This research followed the methodology of ethnomusicological field research, using the audiovisual recording and then the writing of an article in order to understand the way in which the company develops their artistic creations - with particular interest on the musical sphere - to investigate the existence of one or more characteristic musical styles and to analyze the performance as a collective and shared event. The latter has been deconstructed through the frame by frame analysis of an aerial dance number on fabrics which was present both in the Cabaret (performed in Cagliari, 2018/2019) and in Panikyuuri (staged in Assemini, 2019/2020).

Volontario sul fronte russo e poi partigiano durante la Seconda guerra mondiale, Nuto Revelli ha dedicato la propria vita al recupero delle testimonianze di vita dei “vinti” della storia: i reduci e i dispersi, i contadini e le contadine del Cuneese. Ma chi è stato davvero Nuto Revelli? Il seguente contributo cerca di offrire una risposta alla domanda, attraverso un breve excursus sul percorso biografico e intellettuale dell’autore, contraddistinto da una marcata interdisciplinarità.

In Niebla by Unamuno, the dandy of the modernist city, among quotations of other people's texts, impossible dialogues with the author of his own story and suspension of all certainty, gets lost in the labyrinth of the streets starting to live and dying like a paradoxical work of art.
