Boosting Sustainable Action
Universities are increasingly positioning sustainability as a core institutional commitment, often publishing annual reports that showcase their contributions to the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Yet these documents frequently go unnoticed by the academic community, limiting their educational impact and their potential to inspire informed, responsible, and sustainable behaviors. To address this gap, this study explores how participator…
A double Matthew effect? Income and territorial inequalities in 0–2 Ecec uptake
Purpose This article explores income and territorial inequalities in the uptake of early childhood education and care (ECEC) services for children aged 0–2 in two contrasting welfare contexts, Italy and Sweden. It investigates whether these dimensions intersect to create a double Matthew effect, whereby the most disadvantaged households face compounded barriers to access. Design/methodology/approach The analysis is based on cross-sectional EU-SIL…
In-work poverty and family policy in Italy
The article investigates in-work poverty (IWP) in Italy through the lens of family policies. Adopting a longitudinal perspective, the work scrutinizes whether and to what extent the configuration of family policy tools – family allowances, leave and ECEC (Early Childhood Care and Education) – has been effective in contrasting IWP in Italy. Furthermore, it probes whether the Italian family policy has reconfigured over time as a tool for countering…
Differing patterns of employment for university students
Student employment is on the increase in many European countries. It takes many forms, from full-time employment to various types of flexible work, which involves short-term, non-standard and informal work. Despite its relevance and complexity, the connection between higher education and concurrent employment has been only partially explored in scholarly debate. This paper investigates the differing patterns of employment for university students,…
Covid-19 risk perception and political actors
This paper investigates the connections between the socio-demographic patterns of COVID-19 risk perception and the influence of confidence in the government or opposition during the first Italian lockdown. Confidence in political actors is used as a proxy for the adoption of the interpretative frames they provide. Socio-demographic characteristics are crucial in understanding the perception of risks ascribed to a specific event. However, the poli…
Young People’s Participation
Women and Pensions in Italy
This paper examines the age at retirement for men and women in Italy. Despite the expansion of women's educational attainments, they still display lower employment rates, are frequently engaged in involuntary part-time jobs and have more fragmented careers. As a consequence, the mean age at which women receive a pension is higher than that of men. Using Labour Force Survey (2006 and 2012), the authors test the hypothesis that women's higher age a…
Mafie e gioco d’azzardo
The article investigates the role of mafias in the gambling sector in Italy. The gambling sector is a field of business that has recently undergone radical and decisive changes, affected above all by a process of accelerated legalisation that has made it one of the most dynamic legal gambling markets in the world in terms of volume of money gambled. Although gambling has become legal, the demand for illegal gambling services has not definitely di…

Attitudes and Practices of Parents
This article focuses on different ways in which socially disadvantaged parents engage with their children’s educational experiences, and provides evidence of the role they play in opening or narrowing their children’s access to education. Disadvantaged parents are usually associated with weak or difficult educational trajectories for their children, because of their lower level of economic, cultural, and social capital. Nevertheless, this associa…
