GIVING SPACE. CIVIL SOCIETY AND PUBLIC POLICY
Authors: Carlo Borzaga, Cristiano Gori, Francesca Paini
The book “Giving Space” outlines a future in which the Third Sector is not limited to the mere management of services, but makes explicit the meaning and value of its work. It presents itself as a political and ethical force, promoting inclusion, the reduction of inequality and the dignity of all people. Through a broad span of four decades, the text analyzes how the Third Sector has managed to influence political institutions, starting from its post-1968 roots to the era of digital platforms. The book offers a collective reflection, involving a variety of authors and experts, and presents tools and mechanisms that have shaped social policies, while also offering perspectives on future challenges. It represents a reminder of the Third Sector’s political responsibility, emphasizing the importance of enhancing its political vocation in a context where ends shape the future.
