Prima edizione integrale del dopoguerra di un classico " maledetto" della letteratura per ragazzi, corredato dalle illustrazioni d' epoca con il gusto degli anni '30. Ritornano gli " anni ruggenti" dell' Italia mussoliniana, in un libro di letteratura per ragazzi, tolto dall' oblio censorio " democratico" di oltre 70 anni. La rivoluzione fascista delle Camicie Nere vissuta da una scolaresca che, abbandonati per un momento i libri di scuola, come novelli pirati salgariani, si gettano nella guerra civile sotto la bandiera nera e tricolore delle squadre d' azione, al fianco del loro fratelli piu gradi ritornati dalle trincee. I protagonisti piu giovani della Rivoluzione mussoliniana in un romanzo assolutamente unico che alle tinte realiste e al pathos civico e patriottico unisce lo spirito d' avventura delle saghe salgariane . Un libro controcorrente ed unico nell' ambito letterario. Da riscoprire.

Acquisizione, distribuzione e promozione sono le finalit "primarie" di ogni legislazione fiscale moderna ispirata ai principi di equit e di giustizia, unitamente a quelli di solidariet , di sussidiariet e della partecipazione. I fenomeni dell'evasione ed elusione fiscale negano tali finalit e principi; chi intenzionalmente dissimula la propria situazione reddituale "trattiene per s " la quota che spetta della comunit civile, arreca un danno al bene comune. Meritano approfondimento, quindi, le modalit con cui si manifesta la "questione fiscale" e le cause che stanno alla sua origine. Ma esige altres una riflessione che vada oltre l'ambito del principio civilistico della legalit per coinvolgere pi direttamente l'etica, sia perch suscita contrastanti valutazioni circa le finalit della raccolta tributaria e, quindi, dei concetti di bene comune, di solidariet e di condivisione, sia perch rimanda a tematiche attinenti alla stessa concezione di societ , di democrazia, di partecipazione.

From veteran hockey reporter Patrick Johnston and Gino’s longtime friend Peter Leech comes the authorized biography of Gino Odjick.In the 1980s and ’90s, National Hockey League games were very different from the nimble, skill-focused displays we see today. One of the greatest differences—and one of the sport’s more popular facets at the time—was the widespread presence of “enforcers”: hulking, battle-scarred players whose main task was to police the sport by chasing down and brawling with opponents who had broken unwritten codes determining which aspects of violence counted as dishonorable or unjustified.When hard-hitting Vancouver Canucks player Gino Odjick emerged in the early 1990s, he quickly became one of the game’s most feared enforcers and revered teammates, a sign of a new era for the team, racking up 296 penalty minutes in the 45 games he played in his rookie season. Hailing from Kitigan Zibi, an Algonquin community near Maniwaki, Quebec, Gino was one of the few Indigenous players in the NHL at the time. But it was Gino’s ferocious play contrasted by his genuinely affable and openhearted personality off the ice that won him a special place in the hearts of Canucks supporters.Yet legends often obscure the human stories behind them. Hockey journalist Patrick Johnston and Peter Leech look beyond Gino’s legendary persona, drawing on insights from family members, friends, and teammates to recount Gino’s early years in a loving household that was always ready to welcome foster children. Gino’s father, Joe, had suffered the lonely traumas of the residential school system, and the experience had instilled a commitment in the family to those who were less fortunate.The book also details Gino’s eventual struggles with alcohol abuse, and how he responded by taking on the role of empathetic mentor to young Indigenous people, travelling from community to community to hear their stories and offer hope. He never wavered in this role, even as he confronted serious illnesses, including chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) and the rare blood disorder that he survived for years longer than expected, but that eventually led to his death at age fifty-two.Gino is a moving tribute to a beloved hockey legend.
