Leadership femminile e soft skills: dalle Matronae alle Augustae. L’esempio di Livia Drusilla
Full text linkThe essay examines female leadership during the imperial age of Augustus, with a particular focus on Livia Drusilla. Livia’s figure offers the opportunity to recognize and analyze the soft skills developed over time and serves as a useful example for training in this area. An effective leadership program should integrate human competencies, promoting a humanistic approach that enriches the international debate on management training. The literature analysis highlights the innovative impact of the female element in various fields, such as sexuality, religion, and public life, in response to differing levels of male resistance. The article focuses on three key aspects: (i) enhancing humanistic management as a theoretical and instrumental tool for teaching soft skills; (ii) the importance of access to secondary education to actively stimulate students’ abilities; and (iii) the necessity to reform the curriculum in response to traditional pedagogical authoritarianism.
GOVERNARE I LAVORATORI POVERI IN FRANCIA E IN ITALIA. Una prospettiva comparata sul Workfare/Governing the working poor in France and Italy: A comparative perspective on workfare
No full textAbstractThe article analyzes, from a comparative perspective, two different models, in terms of history and level of institutionalization of social activation and work placement policies: the Italian and French cases. Together, these cases are part of a contradictory set of policies that can be defined according to individual national histories but that are related to a plural and evolving political rationality of a neo-liberal nature that has characterized the Euro-American hemisphere since the 1970s. The comparative perspective between two very close yet different countries allows us to understand, from both a historical and socio-political perspective, the formation of a theoretically homogeneous – though administratively and constitutionally differentiated – system that responds to both economic and productive needs of labor market governance and social inclusion. Consistent with a broad analytical literature, this system will be defined in terms of Workfare.Workfare is understood as the antonym of Welfare, i.e. its ‘dark side’, and will be defined as a conservative welfare state.Keywords:Workfare; Reddito di Cittadinanza; Revenu de Solidarité active; Neoliberalism; Italy; France
Il diritto all’oblio tra approdi giurisprudenziali e novità normative: dalla dimenticanza al controllo dei dati personali - The right to be forgotten between case law and new legislation: from forgetting to control of personal data
Full text linkL’Autore – dopo aver osservato come, negli ultimi anni, il diritto alla riservatezza si sia avvicinato sempre più alla protezione dei dati personali – ha analizzato il diritto all’oblio che costituisce plastica raffigurazione di tale tendenza. L’oblio, nato quale diritto alla dimenticanza di notizie in precedenza pubblicate, si è infatti trasformato, con l’avvento della rete internet, nella pretesa al controllo dei dati personali immessi nella piattaforma online.Delineate le diverse accezioni, individuate in via pretoria, del diritto all’oblio, l’Autore si confronta con alcune nuove figure create dal legislatore, al fine di valutare l’esatta portata del diritto all’oblio e i pregiudizi risarcibili. The author – after observing how, in recent years, the right to privacy has come increasingly closer to the protection of personal data – analyzed the right to be forgotten, which constitutes a plastic representation of this trend. Oblivion, which originated as the right to forget previously published news, has in fact been transformed, with the advent of the Internet, into the right to control personal data entered into the online platform.Having delineated the different meanings, identified in pre-trial terms, of the right to be forgotten, the Author confronts some new figures created by the legislature, in order to assess the exact scope of the right to be forgotten and the damages that can be compensated
Sensibilità culturale e partecipazione nell’accompagnamento alla genitorialità vulnerabile: tensioni e buone pratiche nel contesto del Reddito di Cittadinanza
Full text linkThis study explores the role of cultural sensitivity in implementing a participatory approach to parenting support, based on research involving families with children aged 0 to 3 who receive the Italian Citizenship Income (Reddito di Cittadinanza).Following the Critical Best Practices approach, the analysis highlights good participatory practices in the field of child welfare, with a focus on relational aspects – such as emotional closeness and trust – that are often overlooked in their nature as a decision-making act. The study examines emerging tensions in the implementation of cultural sensitivity and participation, particularly those related to risks of cultural subjugation, power asymmetries, and the epistemic status gap between services and families experiencing multidimensional vulnerability. The discussion suggests that some of these tensions may be addressed not so much within the individual relationship between professionals and families, but rather through a systemic coordination of services.RiassuntoQuesto studio esplora il ruolo della “sensibilità culturale” nell’implementazione di un approccio partecipativo all’accompagnamento genitoriale, basandosi su una ricerca con famiglie beneficiarie del Reddito di Cittadinanza e con figli 0-3 anni. Seguendo l’approccio delle Critical Best Practices, l’analisi descrive buone pratiche di partecipazione nel Child Welfare, evidenziando aspetti relazionali spesso trascurati, come la vicinanza emotiva e la fiducia come atto decisionale. Si esaminano le tensioni tra sensibilità culturale e rischi di sudditanza culturale, considerando la vulnerabilità familiare, le asimmetrie di potere e le differenze di status epistemico tra famiglie e servizi. La discussione suggerisce che alcune tensioni possano risolversi non tanto nel rapporto individuale tra professionista e famiglia, quanto nella configurazione del sistema dei servizi
La dimensione della formazione, pietra angolare del LEPS P.I.P.P.I. Approcci teorici, pratiche e sfide
Full text linkThe integration of research, training, and practice represents a crucial element in the implementation of innovative Programs for child protection. This article examines the role of training within the “Framework for a Participatory Approach in Child Protection” (Lacharité et al., 2022), with a specific focus on its application in the P.I.P.P.I. Through the adoption of Implementation Science, the Training Structure of P.I.P.P.I. functions as a methodological device aimed at fostering the active participation of professionals and families in intervention processes. The article explores the foundational theoretical principles, methodologies, and training strategies that support the work of multidisciplinary teams, promoting innovation in welfare practices. The contribution concludes with a reflection on the need for structured university training based on the LEPS P.I.P.P.I. approach, involving multiple humanities-oriented study programs, including first and second-level Master’s degrees, to ensure quality and sustainability in supporting families in vulnerable situations and to foster the dissemination of innovative practices within the welfare system.Riassunto L’integrazione tra ricerca, formazione e pratica rappresenta un elemento cruciale nell’implementazione di Programmi innovativi per la protezione dell’infanzia. Questo articolo analizza il ruolo della formazione all’interno del “Quadro di riferimento per un approccio partecipativo nella protezione dell’infanzia” (Lacharité et al., 2022), approfondendo la sua declinazione in P.I.P.P.I. Attraverso l’adozione dell’approccio dell’Implementation Science, la “Struttura di formazione” di P.I.P.P.I. si configura come un dispositivo metodologico volto a favorire la partecipazione attiva di professionisti e famiglie nei processi di intervento. L’articolo esplora i principi teorici fondanti, le metodologie e le strategie formative che sostengono il lavoro delle équipe multidisciplinari, promuovendo innovazione nelle pratiche di welfare. Il contributo si conclude con una riflessione sulla necessità di una formazione universitaria strutturata secondo l’approccio del LEPS P.I.P.P.I., che coinvolga più corsi di studi a carattere umanistico, comprendendo Master di primo e secondo livello, per garantire qualità e sostenibilità negli interventi di accompagnamento delle famiglie in situazione di vulnerabilità e la diffusione di pratiche innovative nel sistema di welfare
Current challenges of family and child participation in child prevention and protection services Proposal of a practical-theoretical framework
Full text linkThis article is dedicated to the description of the “Framework for a Participatory Approach in Child Protection Services” (Lacharité et al., 2022), as contextualized within the Program of Intervention For the Prevention of Institutionalization – P.I.P.P.I., conceived by the Laboratory of Research and Intervention in Family Education – LabRIEF – of the University of Padua, made its own by the Ministry of Labor and Social Policy since 2011. The implementation of P.I.P.P.I. is indeed inscribed in this participatory perspective, and it finds its figure in putting at the centre the right to participation not only of children, but also of their parental figures and the communities in which they live. By this is meant the consideration of the child in his or her world of ties and relationships, in an ecosystemic and multidimensional paradigm that looks at the wholeness of the human person and his or her potential for emancipation. The presentation to the Italian audience of this Framework, considered in the context of recent national and international literature, is aimed at helping to overcome the gap between intentions, theoretical representations and participatory practices, and to highlight its potential and limitations, in the context of P.I.P.P.I. implementation in Italian social services
Pandemic and Russia’s War of Aggression against Ukraine. Two Unprecedented Challenges for the European Education Area
Full text linkThe year 2025 will be an important year for the process of realising the European Education Area. Next year, in fact, the European Commission will have the opportunity to prepare a comprehensive report on the progress made during the first cycle (2021-2025) of this “ambitious” project. This report will enable the Council to review the strategic framework for European cooperation in the field of education and training, including the targets, the governance structure and the working methods previously set, thus making any necessary adjustments for the second cycle (2026-2030). This essay intends to offer a contribution to the evaluation process of the first cycle
Le traiettorie professionali di laureate e laureati in Scienze dell’Educazione: contraddizioni e prospettive a partire da un’indagine esplorativa
Full text linkIn the Italian context, the educational professions have achieved greater social visibility, which, however, has triggered contradictory and ambivalent processes, which must also be thought of in relation to a historical-cultural scenario that poses numerous challenges to those working in the pedagogical field, generating a condition of unease. In this framework, in 2023, the Bachelor’s Degree in Educational Sciences of the Department of Human Sciences for Education “Riccardo Massa” of the University of Milan-Bicocca, has developed through its Didactic Commission a survey on the professional trajectories of students graduating in Education in the period 2018-2022, in order to explore the career choices in the first years after graduation. This paper intends to discuss the first results of this survey, to thematize and problematize some issues related to the representations of the professional identity of the educators, their work choices over the first years after graduation, and some emerging difficulties, useful to illuminate contradictions and perspectives. RiassuntoNel contesto italiano le professioni educative hanno ottenuto una maggiore visibilità sociale, che tuttavia ha innescato processi contraddittori e ambivalenti, i quali vanno pensati anche in relazione a uno scenario storico-culturale che pone numerose sfide a chi opera in campo pedagogico, generando una condizione di disagio educativo. In questa cornice, nel 2023 il Corso di Laurea in Scienze dell’Educazione del Dipartimento di Scienze Umane per la Formazione “Riccardo Massa” dell’Università di Milano-Bicocca, ha messo a punto, attraverso la propria Commissione Didattica, un questionario sulle traiettorie professionali di studenti e studentesse laureati in Scienze dell’Educazione nel periodo 2018-2022, al fine di esplorare le scelte lavorative nei primi anni dopo il conseguimento del titolo. Il presente contributo intende restituire e discutere i primi risultati di questa indagine, per tematizzare e problematizzare alcune questioni relative alle rappresentazioni del profilo professionale dell’educatore professionale socio-pedagogico, alle sue scelte lavorative nell’arco dei primi anni dopo la laurea e ad alcune difficoltà emergenti, utili a illuminare contraddizioni e prospettive
