Domestic violence in pregnancy: the consequences from the point of view of neuroscience

Immagine
  Dr. Hamida Ouled Slimane Abstract The intervention proposes to highlight how violence suffered by pregnant women can affect children even before birth and that it can be the cause of changes in the mother's stress response systems, increasing cortisol hormone levels, which in turn could increase cortisol levels in the fetus, determining cognitive and neurological alterations. The early changes in brain structures, in fact, could explain why children whose mothers experience high levels of stress due to trauma and domestic violence during pregnancy, have greater chances of developing learning disorders, relational disorders and psychological and/or psychiatric problems in childhood or elder age. In light of this it becomes fundamental and necessary to act quickly in order to help women escape violence in pregnancy, being an effective way to support a healthy brain development in the unborn child and reduce the risk of relational, psychological and psychiatric problems.

Peeping into the evolving world order after hegemony: A Copernican Revolution

Immagine
  W ith global international relations in great flux for the last decade, the emerging world order is finally taking nebulous yet substantive shape through the ongoing U.S.-Russia truce talks on the War in Ukraine and through the related international diplomacy. Modern international history shows that a marked shift in international distribution of power often causes a hegemonic war or a great war, resetting a world order according to which countries win or lose a war or according to their relative military superiority and inferiority at the time of truce talks. This applies well to the current U.S.-Russia global confrontation that includes the protracted warfare in Ukraine, while politically dividing the rest of the world between the two, now in favor of Russia. This essay will discuss major important features of the evolving world order and their central implications to world politics.   1. The features of the truce talks  O n February 18, U.S. and Russian negotiation t...
