Conjugal visits and conception
The recent introduction in Italy of unsupervised conjugal visits for prisoners is part of a broader trend that has been well-established across numerous European countries. This provision is grounded in the respect for constitutional rights and the principles set out by the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR), which underscores the centrality of private and family life even for incarcerated individuals. This development raises significant bioet…
The Polyhedral Character and Ethical Drift in What Mad Universe and Nineteen Eighty-Four
People typically decide what to say or do by following certain normative principles, two opposing categories of which are the deontological and the consequentialist. Deontological ethics entail an acceptance of some absolute morality, namely, what people have been taught is good and evil. By contrast, consequentialists value the expected outcomes of one’s actions; for them, “the ends justify the means.” Sf sets itself apart by frequently drama…
George Orwell and Communist Poland
Krystyna Wieszczek's George Orwell in Communist Poland: Émigré, Official and Clandestine Receptions is an exhaustive and impressive history of Orwell's impact on Polish culture from the mid-1940s until freedom.

Reflections about abortion limitation
The debate on abortion has not yet found a clear solution. In fact, there is still discussion about what the limits of this procedure should be. This uncertainty is related to the lack of a clear definition of human life: when can the product of conception be defined as a human being with full medical-legal rights? Based on the answer to this question, the various world governments have drafted more or less restrictive laws regulating abortion. S…

Freud and the Question of Pseudoscience
In the early 1970s, Cioffi demonstrated that falsified the account of his discovery of the Oedipus complex - an account that had gone unquestioned until that time. Moreover, Cioffi showed that this misrepresentation was necessary to the propagation of the Oedipus theory. The author subsequently revealed Freud's falsifications in retracting his theory of infantile seduction, a revelation that has been often cited in recent books and scholarly jour…
The propaedeutic delusion
This article assembles reasons for holding that the propaedeutic rationale for much of the discourse produced by ‘ethogenic science’ is inadequate. One reason is that the interactional principles that are the pretext for assembling the situational vignettes, which are the staple of ethogenics, are truisms and do not require documentation. Our familiarity with the risks and rewards of social life is already considerable and it is not clear how, or…
Explanation, Understanding, and Solace
WITTGENSTEIN has been taxed with obscurantism for the attitude he has from time to time expressed as to the relevance and prospects of empirical explanation, whether through historical investigation or controlled enquiry. The areas in which Wittgenstein appears to see empirical discourse as an intrusion extend from dreams, jokes, and other psychoanalytic explananda to the meaning and origin of ritual practices and expressive gestures, and to our …
