Fare luce sugli abusi nelle organizzazioni
The subject of the paper is the issue of abuse within organisations. The topic is analysed through the lens of an independent team's report on sexual abuse of minors in the Catholic Diocese of Bolzano-Bressanone. The team had a unique opportunity to access the Diocese's entire archive, including many confidential files. This has never happened in Italy before.The report's findings are examined at individual, organisational and societal levels, wh…
Celibacy and sexual abuse
This paper examines a highly controversial issue: the structural relationship between sexual abuse by the Catholic clergy and the clerical celibacy rule. The first part of the paper reviews the literature on the relationship between clerical celibacy and sexual abuse and examines the various arguments. The second part of the paper is based on the results of a number of empirical social studies and focuses on precisely identifying certain dysfunct…
Power
In this paper, I try to identify some of the reasons for the great and enduring success of Lukes’s book Power: A Radical View. Its popularity stems from the fact that it represents a highly original position that is far removed from all popular ones.

On the other hand, followers of Foucault saw in Lukes’ work an excessive attachme…

The Catholic Social Imagination
Informed Consent, Deception, and Research Freedom in Qualitative Research
Does there exist only one, universally valid, research ethic? Are informed consent and ethical committees the best means to ensure the moral correctness of research? Again, what consequences ensue from the introduction of these instruments for the freedom of research and the quality of its results? This article addresses these issues by first recounting an ethnography conducted by its author in the oncology department of a large Italian hospital.…
