La necesaria rehabilitación del sistema representativo en las propuestas de reforma democrática
2010
In the debates on deliberative democracy it’s a common idea that the defenders of this theory argue for the direct participation of the citizens in the political issues and for the transformation of our current representative devices. However, in this work I argue that this conception is misguided, and that it’s the minority who defends the direct participation. The majority of the writers acknowledges the necessity of a representative device, although based on different premises to the liberal system. The deliberative democracy supports a responsible and compromised citizenship, against the model of self interested citizenship.<br><br>En los debates sobre la democracia delibera…
“Reclaiming public spaces”: Individuazione di strategie e metodi per la partecipazione della cittadinanza attiva nella produzione e gestione di spazi…
2014
A partire dall’analisi di due casi studio di (ri)appropriazione e riconversione temporanea a fini “pubblici” di aree inutilizzate, quali le appropriazioni/(ri)appropriazioni dell’ex-aeroporto di Tempelhof a Berlino e del “laghetto” in via Prenestina a Roma, l’articolo si propone di esplorare alcuni interrogativi quali: E’ possibile costituire una alternativa reale alla riduzione/sostituzione dello spazio pubblico, dovuta in gran parte ai problemi di bilancio che minacciano l’operatività delle amministrazioni locali, valorizzando le esperienze di auto-organizzazione, auto-gestione e partecipazione emerse nelle nostre città? Come interpretare/tradurre in strategie e metodi operativi la pressa…
The Village of the Year Competition Constructing an Ideal Model of a Rural Community in Finland
2016
The Village Action Association of Finland (SYTY) organizes the Village of the Year competition annually to award active rural communities. The competition has taken place since 1985, but after the village action movement was integrated into Finnish rural policy networks in the 1990s, it also became a part of rural policy instruments. The competition can be considered a governing technique that constructs norms and an ideal model for rural communities to pursue. In this article, I study the representation of an ideal rural community by analysing the criteria of the competition. I also look for changes to see whether the integration of the village action movement into rural policy is reflecte…

Minori migranti soli o non accompagnati e le nuove forme di affiancamento a tutori legali
2019
Nell’ambito del sistema di accoglienza in Italia, sappiamo che sono molteplici gli interventi mirati al riconoscimento del bisogno educativo che i migranti manifestano. Nello specifico del contributo, che prende avvio da una ricognizione empirica e problematica sul fenomeno migratorio, si intende riflettere sulla particolare situazione in cui si vengono a trovare i minori migranti soli o non accompagnati, i quali, oltre a dover ri-definire la propria identità tra il passato e le aspettative future, si trovano a sperimentare l’esperienza migratoria da soli, ovvero privi di assistenza e di rappresentanza da parte dei genitori o di altri adulti per loro legalmente responsabili. Si tratta, dunq…

THE SCHOOL AT THE SERVICE OF SOCIETY: CONSEQUENCES FOR THE "NEW WORD"
2022
In this article I shall seek to demonstrate the remarkable contemporary relevance of John Dewey’s pedagogic ideas, found in publications such as My Pedagogic Creed, The School and Society and Democracy and Education. Through a brief analysis of these works I will highlight how much Dewey believed in a school that is connected to society and which places itself at its service, contributing to the birth or consolidation of a democracy understood not just as a form of government, but as a way of life. In view of this analysis and in light of the present pandemic caused by COVID-19, I will consider the importance today of the school. Following Dewey, I will take into account the role it plays i…
