NEETs - One Social Group, Many Profiles: A Proposed Descriptive Profiling of Psychosocial Dimensions newdigital NEETs - One Social Group, Many Profiles: A Proposed Descriptive
Profiling of Psychosocial Dimensions
Year: 2023
The not in employment, education or training (NEET) category is now widely used in many contexts to refer to young people who are not studying, not working and not in training. However, this category is very broad and its delimitation does not always allow for successful interventions and policies. This paper aims to psychologically profile the diverse groups of NEETs (as proposed by Eurofound) in order to provide qualitative aspects in terms of different variables...

Self Interest, Rationality and the Neoliberal Illusion newdigital Self Interest, Rationality and the Neoliberal Illusion
Year: 2023
The writing of this paper is occasioned by the very critical comments of Giacomo Costa (2022) regarding my book L’illusione liberista. However, the paper is not meant to be a general reply to Costa’s remarks. It rather represents an attempt to go deeper into issues that I regard as foundational for contemporary economics and politics alike: the invisible hand theorem and the transformation from a market economy to a market society...
