Human Development II
Human Development II offers an overview of a wide range of contemporary issues in education and society, including emotional intelligence; various models of education; family, leadership; experiential learning; personal development; recreational activities; the arts; philosophy; music; and media. These topics are all currently subject to research and debate, but have been prevalent throughout history, impacting on different fields, including education, communication, and health. It is vital to understand these topics in order to live in a society in which one must interact with other people and regulate one’s emotions. All the contributors to this volume investigate and discuss how these issues affect society in general, reflecting on the causes of the functioning of the world. All chapters in this book provide a full and clear frame of reference for several problems, issues and disciplines discussed here, offering professional and experienced insights from a range of disciplines including psychology and arts. As such, this book represents a highly useful and contemporary manual for both students and the general public interested in the social sciences.

Human Development III
This collection is inspired by the idea of promoting human development in all its aspects and it presents perspectives, across the social sciences and humanities, on the journey human beings make to build and redefine their identity. It continues where the previous two volumes left off by deepening the natural conditions and human needs to respect man as he deserves and allow him to develop the potential that he contains.
Popular Culture
The present volume deals with popular culture from an interdisciplinary perspective. Popular culture, as an important part of the public sphere, has attracted the interest of social scientists for many decades; however, most studies tend to rely on the anthropological perspective or, less commonly, on the sociological perspective. This edited volume breaks down disciplinary barriers to bring together a plethora of methodological and theoretical approaches to the study of popular culture. Moreover, the volume will foster dialogue between international scholars conducting research on the topic.
Migrazioni in Italia: oltre la sfida
‘Going beyond the challenge’ means looking at the phenomenon of migration in its complexity, through a multi and interdisciplinary approach. The chapters that make up the first part offer an over-view of the phenomenon, with a reflection on the numbers of migrations in Italy followed by an in-depth examination of its international dimension. The second part focuses on the Italian case, and on the Italian foreign policy towards some African countries. The third part of the book adopts a sociological perspective, including the reconfiguration of the ‘border’ in Italian legislation and the analysis of the reception model promoted in Tuscany. The fourth part analyses public communication...
Social Work Education
Believing that the precondition for efficient social services lies in the education of well-trained, professional and ethically responsible social workers, this book offers a unique insight into different – yet converging on some aspects – models of social work education in four countries: Portugal, Spain, Italy and Albania. Starting from a comparative analysis of the organization of the Bachelor and Master’s degrees in social work at the Universities of Lisbon, Madrid, Florence, Tirana, Shkoder and Elbasan, remarkable differences have emerged.
Peri-Urban Areas and Food-Energy-Water Nexus
This book explores the nexus among food, energy and water in peri-urban areas, demonstrating how relevant this nexus is for environmental sustainability. In particular it examines the effective management of the nexus in the face of the risks and trade-offs of mitigation policies, and as a mean to create resilience to climate change. The book delineates strategies and actions necessary to develop and protect our natural resources and improve the functionality of the nexus, such as: integrated management of the major resources that characterize the metabolism of a city, stronger coordination among stakeholders who often weight differently the services that are relevant to their individual concerns, integration of efforts towards environmental protection, adaptation to and prevention of climate change and disaster risks mitigation.
Desarrollo humano
A partir de un grupo interdisciplinar de investigación llamado “Desarrollo personal” compuesto por profesores e investigadores universitarios pertenecientes a las Ciencias Sociales, las Humanidades y las Ciencias, hemos fraguado la idea de fomentar una investigación que procure una filosofía cultural del desarrollo humano más avanzada y rica. Este proyecto ya cuenta con empuje en investigaciones que se ha fomentado desde la Unión Europea. Con esta idea comenzamos el primer volumen acerca de la colección titulada “Desarrollo Personal” compuesta por diez capítulos. Queremos profundizar en las condiciones y necesidades naturales del hombre desde un punto de vista interdisciplinar para conseguir “respetar” al hombre como se merece y permitir que este “se desarrolle” según la potencialidad que contiene. El progreso que se defendió desde el Renacimiento para el hombre todavía deber seguir siendo construido y debe beneficiar al hombre y procurarle una sociedad todavía mejor a nivel material, pero sobre todo a nivel espiritual.
