Le Alpi italiane. Bilancio antropologico di un ventennio di mutamenti
No full textThis article provides an anthropological appraisal of the demographic, social and climatic changes recently experienced by the Italian Alps and concentrates on the complex negotiations over the future of the Alps that involve local inhabitants, old and new, and external actors. It is suggested that the epistemological turn fostered by the notion of Anthropocene has added new dimensions to the ongoing processes of negotiation in Alpine settings and that the Covid-19 pandemic, while sharpening pre-existing gaps, is also bringing attention back to the social and welfare needs of marginal areas

Shaping the future(s). Civil society and itineraries of personal commitment in Tunisian democratic transition
No full textThe Arab Spring has forced observers to associate the southern shore of the Mediterranean with social and political dynamism, even though a great deal of uncertainty surrounds the whole area.The present contribution is dedicated to processes of civic and political participation occurring in Tunisia. These processes of political subjectivation present an evident reference to the speculative imagination of the future. By considering the biographies of social actors, I will focus on itineraries of personal commitment, which take shape within the framework of the heterogeneous Tunisian civil society

L’etica della cura al tempo del Covid: una riflessione sul welfare e sulle disuguaglianze di genere.
No full textThe essay addresses the problems that families have had to face with the publics services, following the Covid19 pandemic. Social services immediately took action to meet the demands of users through smart-working: the physical distance was compensated by constant attention to the problems of the population. This is why we speak of resilient social work. The working group is carrying out research on the different forms of relationship with families put in place by social workers in the workplace. The pandemic can be an opportunity to rethink the relationships between families and welfare, paying attention to commons such as health and healthcare.The essay proposes a critical reflection of the concept of care, which must become political theory. According to a gender approach (Nussbaum, Tronto, Moller Okin), the relationship between need and autonomy, between private and public, must be reformulated so that caring for the other is at the center of democratic citizenship

Gender, ethnicity and migration configure as the keystones of the new plural and transcultural subjectivities of post-modern Italy
Le mascherine tra materialità e agency ai tempi del Covid19. Riflessioni su un oggetto inquieto
No full textThe essay proposes a critical analysis, based on an ethnographic approach, on the facial protection devices (mascherine) introduced at a global level to face the Covid pandemic19. While reflecting on how masks are redefining interpersonal relations on a decorporealized basis, on their symbolic dimension, on the relationship with the mask and masking, the contribution focuses on masks as "(s)objects". Seen in their materiality, the masks are in fact proposed as emblematic "agent-objects", invested of a "thing-power" (Bennet 2004), to influence our behaviour. But also as "acted-objects ", with reference to human agency, to the human capacity to manipulate them, to reinterpret them in ironic and subversive forms
