Abstract
[Autom. eng. transl.] Recent events due to the health emergency have brought to everyone's attention words such as community, participation, solidarity, social ties and responsibility. When direct relationships between people were severely limited by the extent of the lockdown, the same words were used on various communicative and operational occasions, as if to try to give a sense and a form of reference to common dimensions to make in the face of what has happened. The use of some words has fallen into a narrative that is not always appropriate. These words represent for community psychology dimensions and constructs central to the theoretical paradigms developed for some time and on which the research and intervention paths are based. We therefore considered it appropriate to start from these and other words that during the recent emergency were used massively in many contexts, to bring them back to their meanings settled in years of scientific debate.
