Educare alla legalità per prevenire la devianza
Starting from youngsters’ statements of “little trust” in the main established
institutions (including government, politics, police, healthcare, Church,
education and family), the author delves into the motivations and effects of the
widespread mistrust of the new generations towards the adult society. The
reasons seem to include the ethical-moral disorientation and the value void
characterizing youth nowadays. Young individuals need certainties, rules and
limits allowing them to orientate and regulate themselves in an increasingly fast
world, with frontiers that are no longer insuperable. The adults have abdicated
from their educational responsibilities, in favor of an elusive friend figure (i.e.,
the parent-friend, the teacher-friend) that has nothing to do with the healthy and
physiological asymmetry allowing the child/adolescent to differentiate
him/herself from the adult in order to grow up. Deviance, therefore, defined as
having a harmful, offensive and abusive conduct, and leading, in the worst case
scenario, to delinquency, becomes an expression of discomfort that does not find
alternatives for communication. Considered such an emergency, the author
offers methodological recommendations and practical tools, such as orientation,
counseling, writing cure, in order to promote prevention, favoring education
paths to legality, to spread authentic values, sense of justice, responsibility
towards others, desire to collaboration and sharing, aiming to a more human and
democratic society
L'affabulazione nella prospettiva di Maria Montessori
This paper aims to analyze some of the Maria Montessori’s principles
combining them with a psychoanalytic thesis by Bruno Bettelheim contained in
The Uses of Enchantment (1976). The comparison between this two theoretical
matrices – one on the side of infant growth and on a child’s level, the other
one on the side of the relationship between the reality experienced by the
child himself and his unconscious reality – provides a perspective and analysis
framework highly functional in early childhood education and care. The author,
by this way, draws paths of development lightening up the impervious road –
but completely devoid of bifurcations – of the possible and plausible encounter
between the Montessori’s reality principle and the childish imagination
described by the psychoanalyst. Through the practice of storytelling, where
fantasy and reality merge but do not mingle, the author proposes paths of
sensitization to the contact with the book (the real and the magic object at the
same time) for a kind of education that knows how to listen to otherness
Madri “interrotte” e figli “sospesi”. Questioni intra e inter-generazionali nelle famiglie transnazionali
This paper starts from the analysis of the change conditions of the family in today’s society: a family characterized by precariousness and uncertainty. The difficulties increase in the cases of transnational families, or those whose members live in different national contexts. Today, the Mediterranean area, particularly Italy, mainly welcomes migrant women, who work in the tertiary sector of personal services and feed the global care chain. The separation and the subsequent reunion between transnational mothers and children is painful and difficult. The Author therefore proposes several hypothesis of support for distance parenthood, in order to better live the migratory project
Giovani a bassa generatività: la transizione alla vita adulta tra crisi, paura e progettualità
The author investigates the universe of the young people in the
Italian context, starting from the political impediments which affect the job
placement and, consequently, delay the acquisition of economic independence
and housing autonomy, and considering the cultural conditions of a society that
“holds” children in their maternal houses and inhibits their transition to adult
life and the formation of their own family. The portrait of a community with a
low birth rate emerges as an unequivocal sign of a personal and social crisis. But
still in young people survives and persists a hidden desire for family which is a
yearning for planning as an ontological category of human beings. Therefore,
the hope and commitment at the same time are the definition of adult education
pathways, focused on parenting, birth and care education

(Dis)orientamento politico e precarietà lavorativa come fattori di rischio di esclusione sociale: i giovani italiani tra crisi e prospettive. Uno studio di caso
The author investigates the “youth universe” in Italy; specifically, the hard
relationship between it and politics and institutions, characterized by a lack of
trust and credibility. The question of the absence of work makes the Italian
case unique and exemplary: young people are precarious, inadequately paid.
Unemployment, the late age to the first job and atypical contracts impoverish
young people of the potential wealth they could carry around: innovation,
change, planning, growth and future; all that exclude them from the country’s
decision-making processes. Thus, housing autonomy and economic
independence are postponed, hence the transition to adulthood. Deprived of the
fixed points that guided previous generations, today’s young people do not
recognize themselves into any ideology, do not feel represented by any
political force. An investigation carried out close to the elections of March 4,
2018 confirmed what has been exposed so far and noted that the consequent
discontent found a possibility of expression and change in the neophyte
Movimento 5 Stelle. Therefore, it is appropriate to ask ourselves what are the
motivations and conditions that have led young people, disappointed and
disillusioned, to move away from “traditional politics”. It is urgent to promote
a cultural revolution to give young Italians the role of protagonists of present,
backed by tradition but making space to the new and welcoming the future.

Legalità e giustizia per un’etica della responsabilità. Percorsi possibili a scuola e in famiglia
This article aims to analyze the conceptions of legality, justice, democracy, citizenship,
re-evaluating them in the light of an ethical vision inspired by responsibility
or by a com-partecipation of experiences and meanings, of norms and
values intimately and authentically perceived as good, healthy, fair, therefore
legitimized, from the citizen to the collectivity, as fair and universal. Once again,
school and family are the primary and fundamental agencies dedicated to educate
young people to an open, critical and elastic mindset and to an inspired and
oriented modus operandi aimed to responsible behaviours in co-responsibility
with other social actors. Particularly in the family context, the conscious and
responsible recovery of the exemplary and educational firmness of adults is essential
for an action carried out with intentionality and planning. These aspects
should characterize all the educators in any reference context. In the scholastic
one, starting from the first attempts at the theorization and widespread dissemination
of new ideas of democracy and citizenship, we will explore the current
Citizenship and Constitution curriculum, which, ambitiously, includes students
and teachers in a path that, starting from the early childhood, could evolve to
contests, modalities, knowledges and skills along the ideal continuum that binds
the various orders and degrees of schooling
