Sport and deradicalization: a proposal for an analysis and prevention model
Based on Bronfenbrennerâs (1979) ecological model, this article focus- es on the multidimensionality of radicalization and its relationship with community culture by observing the problem of social isolation. In this framework, sports pro- vide contexts in which forms of social collaboration are necessary, the ârules of the gameâ must be embraced, and there is close interaction among fellow players. These characteristics can turn organized sports into observatories on (potential) juvenile radicalization through identifying âearly warning signalsâ that are mainly detected by observing those conducts that may reveal a potential risk. In the provided extensive literature review, it comes that these signs can be traced, for instance, in the lack of self-esteem, in the absence of significant bonds, in the intolerance towards values, as well as in extreme introverted behaviour of the young subjects. Alongside such premises, this paper aims to understand whether and to what extent it is possible to hypothesize the shaping of strategies able to prevent radicalization in various con- texts. Alongside such premises, this paper is aimed at understanding whether, and to what extent, it is possible to hypothesize the shaping of strategies able to avert radicalisation in various contexts, prevention based on the idea that the interaction between the individual and the environmentâin the sense provided by the Chicago Schoolâis heavily influenced by the progressive adaptation of human organism to its surrounding environment
PARADIGMI DEL LOCALE COME SPECCHI DEL GLOBALE : Prospettive per il XXI secolo
Le sfide della contemporaneitĂ richiedono sforzi continui da parte del mondo accademico, delle amministrazioni e degli attori sociali per affrontare e costruire percorsi di sviluppo che possano mitigare le diseguaglianze che caratterizzano diverse parti del mondo. Ă necessario rileggere i fenomeni sociali andando oltre la specificitĂ del locale e ponendoli in ottica di continuo confronto con la realtĂ globale, facendo appunto attenzione alle connessioni che si instaurano tra locale e globale. Le chiavi di lettura possibili sono molte: sviluppo integrale, co-produzione del sapere, sovranitĂ alimentare, metodologie partecipative per lo sviluppo, welfare locale, tutte declinate in unâottica di ponte tra presente e futuro.
Questo volume, il terzo di una interessante serie sviluppata a cavallo tra due continenti, offre spunti di riflessione e analisi basate su paradigmi capaci di sostenere una comprensione critica della realtĂ e delle sue trasformazioni
