Our report targets a quasi-experimental study that was carried out in April 2020, at the onset of the state of emergency in Romania. Drawing on Your Morals Depend on Language by Costa et al. (2014) and the experiments presented in “Granny dumping”: Acceptability of sacrificing the elderly in a simulated moral dilemma by Kawai, Kubo & Kawai (2014), our research put forth the hypothesis that the participants would be willing to sacrifice an elderly person in order to save a younger one. Furthermore, we rely on Contemporary morality: Moral judgments in digital contexts by Barque-Duran et al. (2017) for interrogating and investigating the relationship between the devices we employ (PC/laptop or smartphone) and the moral judgements that require a response from us against the background of our digital age. As the univariate analysis of variance (ANOVA) yielded inconclusive results that invalidated our research hypotheses, especially the one proposing the participants‘ increased utilitarian tendencies when facing a (sacrificial) moral dilemma presented in a foreign language, a second study was carried out, employing the established dilemmas illustrating the dual nature, i.e. deontological vs. utilitarian, of moral judgement: the trolley dilemma or the switch dilemma, described by Foot (1967) and the Fat Man dilemma or the footbridge dilemma, presented by Thomson (1986). The results that mostly invalidated the hypotheses provide informative insights into a precise moment of worldwide crisis significantly foregrounding uncertainty and other subjective states of mind

The article analyzes the causes, implementation strategy, and results of vaccine diplomacy of the People’s Republic of China and the Russian Federation in Central and Eastern Europe. In particular, the activities of China and Russia in Serbia, Hungary, Northern Macedonia, Montenegro, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Albania, Moldova, Belarus, and Ukraine are covered. The main directions, tools, and consequences of the activation of the two states in the region are outlined. The article underlines that China is expanding its strategic goals according to the One Belt One Road Initiative through the so-called Health Silk Road, providing a vaccine to low- and middle-income countries. The goals of the Russian Federation are established more in the geopolitical and political spheres. Russia seeks to reduce the influence of the EU and the US in the CEE region from political, economic, and security perspectives. China and Russia are both allies and competitors. The two countries are trying to gain additional leverage in the CEE region by means of political lobbying, investment, finance, propaganda, Euroscepticism, public opinion manipulation, and soft power. For some time, the shortage of medicine for vaccination, which was caused by giving priority to the population of vaccine-producing countries, contributed to a rather increased activity of the PRC and the Russian Federation in the implementation of the strategy of gaining image benefits.

The city has become a space of diversity. To be sustainable, inclusive and less unequal, urban policy and policies must therefore take these differences into account. In this moving film, the female component represents a fundamental aspect. For a heavy cultural question, in Italy there has been a delay in society with respect to the idea of equal opportunities between men and women. Italy remains far from the watchword - mainstreaming - which Europe, on the other hand, has begun to develop and disseminate. And it is a European document that for the first time introduces the theme of the “right to the city for women”. There is certainly no shortage of innovative cases also promoted by female figures in Italian local administrations. In practice, however, a systematic overview is lacking. Apart from the issue of sustainable mobility, temporal policies are particularly important for a gender sensitive territorial planning. The interesting and innovative aspect is the transversality of the temporal dimension, both in the lives of individuals and in the social organization of urban space. The lockdown canceled the diversification of the times of daily life and the use of urban space: “time” considered a certain fact, never questioned, has become a precious, quality asset; through new rhythms for a new urban livability and mostly for a better life of women. For this to happen, however, the city must change its skin, it must change its thinking and above all its rhythms. And this is precisely the perspective recalled in a document drawn up by the Municipality of Milan: “Milan 2020 - Adaptation strategy” (Municipality of Milan, 2020). Therefore, a new Territorial Schedule Plan, whose specificity is the transversality of the temporal dimension. A new city management tool through the organization of time, from timetables to accessibility with particolar attention to the prospect of a “city 15 minutes away”. Promoting women’s well-being satisfies collective and community interests and improves the quality of all: women and men.
