Beyond the Cleft Habitus
Sociological literature on upward mobility has long highlighted the cleft habitus and the psychosocial unease experienced by working-class students navigating educational fields dominated by the middle class. This article challenges the assumption that these students must choose between total assimilation into middle-class culture or a defensive retreat into oppositional identities. By establishing a dialogue between Bourdieusian theory and Briti…
Intergenerationality and Social Change through Popular Education in a Neoliberal World
This article focuses on popular education as a means of intergenerational education for social transformation against the neocolonial neoliberalism imposed by the “West”. The intergenerational nature of popular education has received little attention, yet it is truly relevant, especially today. Indeed, the current political and economic context is witnessing the spread of new political movements in the Global ‘North’, and even more so in regions …
The revival of radical popular education in Italy as a new form of cultural and class struggle
The aim of this article is to examine the revival of popular schools in Italy, focusing on the ‘network of Roman popular schools’. This is a little researched but highly relevant topic in sociology nowadays, due to the innovative way it links politics and education in an increasingly unequal society. Inspired by research gathered over 4 years of participant observation and 28 in-depth interviews, I describe the way in which popular educators comb…
A Bourdieusian analysis of vaccine hesitancy. The case of Italian upper secondary school students
The aim of this paper is to propose an original analysis of the association between social status and attitudes toward Covid-19 vaccines regarding upper-secondary students in Italy. The research was conducted by administering an online survey on a probabilistic and stratified sample of 5,699 stu- dents, in the spring of 2021, when the vaccination campaign in Italy had been underway for only a few months. Following the bourdieusian perspective, we…

L'istruzione come risorsa di inclusione sociale delle donne
L'articolo esamina le diseguaglianze di genere in Italia tra persone appartenenti a coorti di età differenti in modo da comprendere come cambi il ruolo dell'istruzione nel mediare l'influenza tra genere e condizione sociolavorativa, tenendo sotto controllo altri aspetti, quali la classe sociale di provenienza e l'area geografica
Education as a Resource of Social Innovation
Focusing on the Italian context, this research aims to analyze the relationship between investment in education and economic development through a critical exam of the human capital theory. This paradigm is compared with the social investment paradigm, particularly the Esping-Andersen’s thesis, which seems more useful to unfold the link between social stratification and education level as a resource of social innovation. From this standpoint, our…
Dimensioni e direttrici del mutamento socio-economico in prospettiva territoriale dal 1951 a oggi
In this study we go back to examine the economic and sociological changes throughout the local contexts and divisions of our country. The instrument used is a research strategy that combines a two-phase principal component analysis developed by Di Franco and Marradi with multiple linear regression. From data inherent to four key moments in the recent history of Southern Italy and the whole country - 1951, 1971, 1991 and 2007 - we obtain four «pho…
