Nursing the empire, building the state: Female health professionals and politics in 1950s Ethiopia and Sudan
This paper offers a comparative analysis of the social and political status of female health professionals–particularly nurses and midwives–in Ethiopia and Sudan during the 1950s. It explores how these women came to occupy markedly different statuses within their respective nation-building processes, despite sharing a common regional history of imperial and colonial medical initiatives.From the mid-19th century to the mid-20th century, Ottoman-Eg…
Intimate Connections: Marriage and mobilities across the modern Mediterranean and the Red Sea
The prism of marriage can be a unique opportunity to write a social and cultural history in the modern Mediterranean and the Red Sea. The progressive dissolution of the Ottoman Empire, followed by the different settings of colonial encounters and/or the nation-building processes, led to the reform and reordering of multiple and contemporary marriages practices in a complex and dense imperial space such as the Mediterranean and the Red Sea regions…

This topic takes on a particular interest in cruise tourism, where the first visit may depend on the cruise itinerary. This paper investigates cruise passengers' intention to revisit European destinations. It is based on the results of a wider study conducted by the Costa Group, Deloitte, and the Universities of Genoa and Hamburg, which assesses the direct, indirect…
Measuring Regional Performance in the Italian NHS: Are Disparities Decreasing
Given the regional disparities that historically characterize the Italian context, in this paper we propose a framework to evaluate the regional health care systems' performance in order to contribute to the debate on the relationship between decentralisation of health care and equity. To investigate the regional health systems performance, we refer to the OECD Health Care Quality Indicators project to construct of a set of five composite indexes…

Pour une histoire à part égale des femmes et du genre dans les sociétés musulmanes
Invisibilité des femmes, héritage colonial et engagement féministe Depuis les années 1970, le lien entre histoire des femmes et mouvement féministe a constitué une occasion de renouvellement historiographique. Le premier centre d’intérêt a consisté à surmonter l’invisibilité des femmes dans l’histoire, non pas dans le but d’écrire simplement une « histoire en plus », ou bien une histoire parallèle, mais plutôt de participer à une révolution épist…
Per una storia incrociata tra l’Italia e la Libia: Il percorso dell’etnologa e arabista Ester Panetta (1894-1983)

Her exper…

Words of Paper. Materiality of Writing and its Discourses in African Contexts1
Written supports have become a fully-fledged research subject. In themselves, as well as through their articulation with the sign or signs inscribed therein, they reveal complex discourses, practices and social interactions with vast temporal and geographical ramifications. The interest in written supports is part of the explosion of modes of materiality, in particular, the widespread use of devices for digitizing handwritten and printed textual …

Contested Religious Authority: Sufi Women in Ethiopia and Eritrea
The African experience in works dealing with Sufi women shows a concentration of classical and more recent works in the Maghreb and in West Africa. There is an observable gap in academic writings on the Horn of Africa where only scarce and fragmentary studies are available on women's involvement and leadership in Sufism. Works focusing on Somalia address such themes as women's oral literature, religious practices, and everyday religion. The chall…
