The human brain, with its wealth of knowledge and experience, by constantly interacting with the physical and social environment, drives behavior, individual and collective choices, creates increasingly sophisticated means of communication and interaction, which provide direction to lines of development, political , economic and industrial choices.

The seminar is about two staples of St. Paul’s Epistle to the Galatians: that of identity and its relativization and non-symmetrical overcoming («in Christ there is neither Jew nor Greek »), and the problem of authority. What does it mean that Paul goes to Jerusalem to meet the three “pillars”: James (not one of the Twelve), Cephas and John to expound the gospel in order not to run in vain? In both cases, contemporary implications of the text will also be discussed.

Nata come riflessione sui problemi aperti dall'evoluzione delle pratiche, delle convinzioni e delle scienze in campo biomedico, la bioetica ha richiamato sin dal principio l'attenzione di credenti, non credenti, atei, agnostici e scettici preoccupati di salvaguardare le rispettive convinzioni etiche in materia e di orientare i processi sociali e giuridici. I rapporti tra le varie prospettive sono fluidi e complessi. Scopo del convegno è promuovere un confronto interdisciplinare tra filosofi e giuristi nella convinzione che il dialogo fra diversi saperi e discipline possa contribuire a una migliore comprensione dei rapporti tra bioetica, diritto e religione nelle società secolarizzate.

The need for more comprehensive and integrated data on individual well-being is widely recognised. In order to identify better measures of economic performance in a complex economy and thus going beyond GDP, Stiglitz, Sen and Fitoussi (2009) recommend to consider income, consumption and wealth and to give more prominence to their joint distribution.
