Corpi intermedi. Una scommessa democratica

[Autom. eng. transl.] The volume, which she edited together with Gianni Bottalico, revolves around the analysis of the condition in which intermediate bodies (or groups) find themselves in contemporary society. They constitute an expression of the natural vocation of the person to sociality. In fact, the Italian Constitution reserves them a particularly important position since they are conceived as places where the personality of the subject takes place and develops (Article 2, Constitution) and, as such, endowed with the function of directing the action of the institutions. to grasp and interpret the needs and questions arising from the social structure. In the essay written as co-author of the book (Chapter 2 - Social pluralism in the Italian Constitution) the constitutional framework of reference was defined with regard to the legal status and position of intermediate bodies (social formations) in the legal system, especially in reference to the role of the pluralist principle in the social dimension. It was decided not to neglect also reflections on the cultures that in the Constituent Assembly favored the inclusion in the Constitution of the typical role of social bodies.
