I servizi socio-educativi nell’era del digitale. Sfide e opportunità
2022
The pandemic has played a catalyst role in the digitization processes of services and relationships between professionals and people, highlighting the existence of a "minimum technological vital" (Campedelli, Toc-cafondi and Vignani, 2021) which can draw the line between social inclusion and exclusion. The measures introduced to deal with the spread of the virus have imposed rapid transformations and, in just a few weeks, digital technologies have been integrated into all aspects of professional life, showing positive and negative effects (Lopez et al., 2020) . The introduction of numerous platforms, the use of which has exploded during the quarantine, has provided previously overlooked, if…
Expanding Well-Being by Participating in Grassroots Innovations: Using the Capability Approach to Explore the Interest of Alternative Food Networks f…
2022
Abstract Grassroots social innovations are citizen-led initiatives that develop bottom-up solutions to societal challenges. Alternative food networks (AFNs) are innovations which propose alternative schemes for distribution and consumption of food—such as community-based agriculture or food cooperatives—which can improve the well-being of participants. Its potential for social work and social services has been recognised, but remains underexplored. This paper proposes a theoretical framework based on the capability approach in order to explore the impacts, drivers and factors at play in the expansion of well-being in participants in AFNs. This framework is applied to address seven cases of …
Social Work and Welfare System in Italy: changes, critical issues, resiliencies
2019
The emergence and growth of the professional figure of the social worker in Italy dates back to the 20th century, when the concept of social assistance witnessed a more concrete legislative application, through the affirmation of the Social State, the type of State that aims to guarantee not only equality and freedom to its citizens, but also, what is known as, “social well-being”: “the profession of social worker, being the progeny of industrial society, assumes the form of the functional specialization of modern social-welfare activity” (Gui 2004: 3). Since the early years of the last century, the social worker (or “social assistant” as it has been the term given in Italy to the social wo…
Il servizio sociale nell'emergenza. Esperienze e prospettive dall'Abruzzo all'Emilia
2012
In the emergency situations occurred up to today, both at national and international level, very different professionals cooperate: some of these are now perfectly stored in the collective imaginary (doctors, firefighters, logistics experts, law enforcement, etc..), while others (community leaders, educators or social workers) have not yet been fully integrated into the network of the protagonists of the emergency. This mean that social workers - on several occasions and in a more or less structured and recognized ways - have been shown to possess extraordinary skills in this field; experience on the ground, in fact, shows how their contribution can be relevant and constructive already in t…
Geneza profesjonalizacji polskich służb społecznych
2017
Artykuł jest kontynuacją rozważań o tożsamości i historii polskich służb społecznych. W szczególności nawiązuje do zagadnień związanych z genezą i początkami formowania się systemu edukacyjnego pracowników społecznych. Pamięć o początkach jest nieodzownym elementem myślenia o przyszłości w teraźniejszości. Kreowanie rozwiązań dla przyszłości bez szacunku dla dorobku przeszłości niesie liczne ryzyka błędów, które są doświadczeniem minionych pokoleń. Oznacza także ryzyko zaniechania w rozwoju sprawdzonych rozwiązań, które wpisują się w specyfikę rodzimych uwarunkowań społecznych, kulturowych czy mentalnych. Historia jest bowiem doskonałą nauczycielką dla współczesnych aktywistów zaangażowanyc…
Genesis of professionalization of Polish social services
2018
The article continues the discussion about the identity and history of the Polish social services. In particular, it addresses the genesis and beginnings of the formation of the educational system of social workers. The memory about the beginnings is an indispensable element of thinking about the future in the present. Coming up with solutions for the future without respect for the achievements of the past creates a risk of committing errors of the past generations. It also entails the risk of neglecting the development of proven solutions which are well-grounded in Polish social, cultural and mental conditions. We should remember that history is the best teacher for contemporary activists …
LA INCLUSIÓN DEL MÉDICO EN LA FORMACIÓN DEL INTÉRPRETE EN EL ÁMBITO SANITARIO
2017
La experiencia docente que describimos en este artículo propone la adquisición y desarrollo de destrezas interpretativas a través de cuatro sesiones teórico-prácticas sobre interpretación en los servicios públicos (ISP). Su particularidad reside en integrar a un profesional del ámbito médico-sanitario en el proceso de aprendizaje, que se perfecciona mediante role plays en el aula. Su colaboración desinteresada, activa y participativa estuvo presente desde la elección de los casos que se abordaron en clase derivados de sus experiencias con pacientes extranjeros, hasta la asunción del papel que habitualmente desempeñan en su trabajo en los ejercicios de simulación con los alumnos. La interacc…
Neighbourhoods and the formation of towns : the role of information externalities
1997
The objective of this paper is to explain the role of information and of the progress made in information treatment and its transmission in the way that urban space evolves, and particularly its center-periphery structure. Information plays a more and more important role in production and innovation processes. Despite the very rapid progress in long distance information exchange possibilities, men and economic activities still demand proximity, in the form of direct, face-to-face contact. Today, the need for information exchange is one of the main sources of production agglomeration. What kind of information does it concern ? What sort of economic activities require proximity and how is tha…
Town, industry and city
1995
Une première partie regroupera quelques réflexions conceptuelles et méthodologiques sur les économies d'agglomération et le phénomène d'agglomération. On y trouvera des précisions sur les sources, la nature et le classement des économies d'agglomération et des forces qui peuvent les contrarier, ainsi que sur la dynamique propre du phénomène d'agglomération. Dans une deuxième partie, nous examinerons plus précisément l'intérêt et les limites de l'assimilation entre l'agglomération de la production et la ville, en analysant comment la dimension productive est liée aux autres dimensions de la ville, notamment la dimension sociale. Nous chercherons en particulier quelles représentations de la v…

1997
The idea o f the "health for all", that consists in insure to each the free access to health care and the equality on treating, has been found enough rapidly taken in defect by the catastrophic economic situation of countries of Africa to the South o f the Sahara.
