Un passato dimenticato tra Europa e Americhe: gli scienziati sociali di fronte alla guerra e alle dittature

A forgotten past between Europe and the Americas: social scientists in the face of war and dictatorships This article focuses about some social scientists (Gramsci, Germani and Sorokin) and, in particular, on their “positioning” with regard to war or other forms of conflict and oppression (such as dictatorships) in order to emphasise how the “positioning” of social scientists can still influence the construction of public opinion and peace-making processes today.
