La pace come bene comune globale
The control of private, collective and public violence has been a major concern of social and political philosophy since antiquity. Contrary to widespread public perceptions, modern historical and statistical research supports the hypothesis of a decrease in private violence whenever states have acquired a sufficient degree of monopoly over legitimate violence. After the end of World War II, the division of the world into two blocs each armed wit…

European Society
The EU today is at a crossroads: either it becomes a great supranational union or it goes back to being an array of separate independent states. Alberto Martinelli and Alessandro Cavalli draw a grand fresco of the society in which the European Union is taking shape. Long-term social and cultural trends and main current developments in economics and politics are synthetically outlined. Key questions of identity and nationalism, immigration and ine…

Generational Discontinuities and the Memory of Traumatic Events
In certain contingencies, traumatic events intervene in breaking the continuity of the life of social communities or whole societies. Such events include natural catastrophes but also wars or revolutions. This article looks in particular at recollections of the Second World War
How Is Individuality Possible? Georg Simmel's Philosophy and Sociology of Individualism
How is society possible?" The mirror image of Simmel's famous question is: "How is individuality possible?" To answer this question Simmel developed a philosophy and sociology of individualism. The "tragedy of individuality" consists of the hiatus between the social structure offering freedom and individuality and the culture unable to provide the necessary meaning and orientation. This is shown with respect to epistemic, structural, cultural and…
The Diverse Patterns and the Diverse Causes of Migration and Mobility in Science
Five major themes are often addressed in the discourse of mobility in science: the definition and classification of the persons in mind (scholars, academics, researchers, etc); the frequency and the configuration of mobility; the roles mobility and migration play for the individuals; the roles they play for institutions (universities, research institutes, enterprises, etc); and finally the relevance of mobility and migration for the overall inter…
The Memory of Fascism and of the Anti-Fascist Resistance among Italian Youth
This paper discusses the reasons why Italian young people today are not in a position to develop a memory of their own regarding the fascist regime of the recent past. Neither families, nor schools and media, could transmit experiences and provide learning opportunities that enables young men and women to construct an adequate image of that period of their historical heritage. Fascism has become the object of a process of collective removal
Academic Systems and Professional Conditions in Five European Countries
Despite the tendency to create a European Higher Education and Research area, academic systems are still quite different across Europe. We selected five countries (Finland, Germany, Italy, Norway and the UK) to investigate how the differences have an impact on a number of aspects of the working conditions of academic staff. One crucial aspect is the growing diversification of professional activity: reduction of tenured and tenure tracked position…

Social sciences and European society in the making
The study of the European integration process offers a serious challenge for the social sciences. It is easy to understand why the disciplines of law, economics, and political science have made the most relevant contributions to the study of the Europeanization of our societies. From the treaty creating the European Coal and Steel Community in May 1951 to the establishment a few years later of Euratom, from the treaty of Rome to the European Econ…
Generations and Value Orientations
The first part of this article deals with the uses of the concept of generation in the historical and social sciences. Following Mannheim’s approach, generations are conceived as produced by the differential impact of socio-cultural change on different age cohorts. The concept of “crucial event” in the biography of individuals is discussed in the light of developmental social psychology. Specific attention is devoted to the methodological problem…
Changement culturel et orientations politiques chez les jeunes européens
Le concept de post-matérialisme, tel qu’Inglehart l’a défini, recouvre en fait chez les jeunes une large gamme de valeurs et d’attitudes. Ainsi l’individualisme, en tant que valeur centrale du post-matérialisme, peut être au service d’orientations politiques diverses, à gauche mais aussi à droite. Si le nationalisme ne touche qu’un dixième de la population des jeunes en Europe, ceux-ci peuvent influencer des fractions plus larges de la population…
