The role of whole network analysis in understanding health behaviours
Background: Health behaviours such as smoking, alcohol use, physical activity, and dietary habits are not only individual choices but are influenced by social interactions and relational contexts. Recently, Whole Network Analysis (WNA) has become a powerful methodological tool to explore how these behaviours spread and become established within social systems. Unlike egocentric approaches, which focus on individuals' personal networks, WNA captur…
A dataset of a whole network to investigate healthy and unhealthy behaviors in an Italian Community
Introduction: The data protocol presented here stems from a study investigating the role of social networks in shaping health-risk behaviors in a small Lombard municipality (Italy) characterized by typical sociodemographic features. Methods: A quantitative survey was conducted on all residents aged 18-75, complemented by detailed mapping of intra- and extra-community social ties. Data collection employed structured questionnaires covering sociode…
Desigualdades socioeconómicas en salud en la Argentina e Italia en 2015-2018
En la literatura hay una falta de investigación acerca de las desigualdades en salud en Sudamérica y sus diferencias con respecto a las de los países desarrollados. Como en Italia se han registrado tendencias similares en los últimos años y muestra similaridades con la Argentina, se ha decidido utilizar el país mediterráneo con fines comparativos. La hipótesis planteada consistió en que, más allá de las diferencias estructurales, las desigualdade…
So Far, so Similar? Labour Market Feminization in Italy and Chile
The article aims to analyse gender segregation in the labour market while comparing two national contexts in Europe and Latin America. Specifically, it will consider the growth trends of female employment in the last 25 years (1992-2017), its distribution between activity sectors and occupations, and the gender pay gap. Feminization models and gender inequalities are framed within labour market segmentation theories, which are in partial contrast…
Does culture evolve
This review concerns the book of Ronald F. Inglehart “Cultural Evolution”. The famous scholar presents his “Evolutionary Modernization Theory” about the recent cultural changes after the severe socio-economic crisis that occurred in 2007-08. Whereas a high level of individual security produced a more tolerant and open outlook society, recent structural changes have led to a cultural reaction invoking strong leaders, in-group closure, conformist a…
The health of Italians before and after the economic crisis of 2008
This article examines the relationship between the financial crisis of 2008 and the health of Italians using aggregate and individual health indicators in correlation with the socioeconomic changes which have occurred in the Italian population. First, the study contextualises the changes referring to some important health indicators (life expectancy, death and suicide rates). Then, the main hypothesis on the relation between worsened individual h…
Health inequalities in Argentina and Italy
Labour market segmentation
The article focuses on the conditions of self-employed professionals in the European and Latin American labour markets, whose increase is linked to the expansion of on-demand service economy. Moving from a critic to the traditional segmentation theory, this group of high-skilled self-employed, expression of the upper-middle class and post-industrial work can be considered halfway between market and hierarchy, HR internalization and outsourcing. D…
The role of social and cognitive factors in individual gambling
Changes in the labour market and health inequalities during the years of the recent economic downturn in Italy
Individualisation and Poverty Over Time
In the last few years, much sociological debate has focused on individualisation theory, especially on Beck's risk society version. According to this theory, contemporary social change can be interpreted as the progressive weakening of the influence of social structures on individual behaviour. Individualisation theory has been adopted in many fields of study (voting behaviour, consumption behaviour, etc.). Although much of the debate has a theor…
Health Inequalities and the Welfare State in European Families
Using EU-Silc data from 2005, our aim in this article is to estimate how self-assessed health and the gradient between education and health vary among individuals in different European countries, considering their contextual socioeconomic vulnerability. In order to do this, we use a hierarchical model with individuals nested in households at the second level, and in various European countries at the third level. Our main research interest is on t…
A Comparative Analysis of Inequality in Health across Europe
The study of inequality in health concerns the relationship between socially structured characteristics and health outcomes. Howewer, health disparities are also linked to purely individual characteristics and contextual ones. In particular, the contextual effect at a national level may reflect differences in the functioning and performing of national health institutions, that may be conceived as further determinants of health inequalities. In th…
Class and Political Preferences in Europe
This article analyzes trends over time in the relationship between social class and political preferences in EU countries. Multilevel models and logistic regression techniques are employed to examine Eurobarometer data for thirteen nations between 1976 and 2003. In the comparative research addressing the issue of long-term changes in class politics, class voting is the most common indicator. Instead of focussing on electoral behaviour, we analyze…
