Titolo: Digital Transformation in Non-profit Organizations Autori: Cipriano, Michele Abstract: This book presents a digital transformation (DT) methodology for non-profit organizations (NPOs), integrating bibliometric analysis, thematic synthesis, strategic framework development, and empirical case studies. Differentiating itself from similar publications, the book captures the complexity of DT in mission-driven contexts, emphasizing the interplay between organizational identity, strategic logics, and stakeholder pressures. It also proposes multivariate analysis methods in order to identify opportunities for digital change across operational, cultural, and strategic dimensions. Key topics include the classification of DT pathways, strategic benchmarking against for-profit models, and the development of a recursive framework that links readiness, strategic intent, and organizational profiles. Drawing on case studies from UK-based NPOs, the book explores how digital tools are adopted, adapted, and contested in practice, highlighting tensions between innovation and mission alignment. While focused on the non-profit sector, the book’s frameworks and findings are relevant to all scholars and practitioners of digital innovation, organizational change, and public value creation.

Titolo: Per una migliore integrazione Autori: Bordignon massimo; Gamalerio Matteo; Slerca Edoardo; Turati Gilberto. Abstract: Why do populist parties with an anti-immigrant stance have success in areas that host few immigrants? We use data from a sample of Italian municipalities to show that the relationship between the vote shares of anti-immigration parties and the share of immigrants follows a U-shaped curve, which exhibits a tipping-like behavior around a share of immigrants equal to 3.35 %. We estimate that the vote share of Lega Nord, the main Italian anti-immigration party, is approximately 6 % points higher for municipalities below the threshold. We show that the competition in the labor market between low-skilled natives and immigrants is the more plausible explanation for the electoral success of anti-immigration parties in areas with low immigrant shares. We rationalize our findings with a simple theoretical model and show that alternative stories are not supported by the data. Finally, we discuss the policy implications and suggest how immigration and labor market policies could reduce anti-immigration sentiment.

Titolo: The Sustainable Food Choice: An Interdisciplinary Approach to Consumer Food Behavior Autori: Carfora V. Abstract: The Sustainable Food Choice: An Interdisciplinary Approach to Consumer Food Behaviour explores the intricate relationship between individual preferences, societal norms, and global challenges in the pursuit of sustainable eating habits. Featuring contributions from experts across various fields, the book delves into the nutritional, social, and psychological foundations of food choices, the influence of technology and innovation, and the role of policy in guiding consumer behavior. Through comprehensive analysis and case studies, it offers a roadmap for promoting environmentally friendly and health-conscious food consumption patterns. The book is structured into three sections, with each part focusing on unique aspects of sustainable eating. Highlights include chapters on psychological predictors of food choices, the impact of political attitudes, mindfulness in eating, front-of-package labeling, and smartphone interventions. It provides a holistic understanding of how science, mindfulness, and technology can be leveraged to encourage sustainable food choices.

Titolo: Fare assieme un museo. Appunti metodologici per il facilitatore in dialogo con la comunità Autori: Valotti, Michela Abstract: Il volume origina da un progetto situato, sviluppato in area prealpina, nella provincia di Brescia. Restituisce il processo partecipato che ha visto coinvolti istituzioni pubbliche e cittadini nell’avvio del Museo Stampatori «da Sabbio», destinato a valorizzare il lascito patrimoniale dei tipografi, nativi di Sabbio Chiese che, tra Cinque e Seicento, intrapresero l’arte della stampa, nelle principali città d’Italia e d’Europa. L’intento della pubblicazione è duplice: da un lato fare di una sperimentazione un’occasione di ricerca, per configurare un’ipotesi prototipale da verificare sul campo, in altri contesti; dall’altro, restituire voce ai partecipanti, ognuno col suo portato di aspettative e bisogni, agenti di cambiamento (più o meno consapevolmente) in un paese “interiore”, oltre che “interno”, luogo degli affetti e delle memorie personali e familiari, prima che crogiolo di una storia più grande, che vede protagonisti stampatori ingegnosi e temerari, interpreti raffinati della produzione libraria in età moderna. Locale e globale, singolare e plurale si intrecciano, allora, in un magma relazionale denso, forte della dedizione libera e spontanea ad un progetto ambizioso che ha mosso i primi passi qualche anno fa e che crescerà vigoroso dentro un sogno condiviso dalla collettività.
