The phenomenon of inactivity in adult men, to which we usually refer only for a comparison with traditionally disadvantaged groups, is particularly important for bridging the knowledge gap that characterizes it and for its heuristic value in bringing out prospective indications for an integral human development. The essay confirms the hypothesis of the adult men inactivity, higher in Italy than in other European countries, as a possible condition that negatively affects not only income and family stability, but also the achievement of marketable skills and social awareness. The presentation of a trans-disciplinary study on inactivity in adult men analyses the relationship between object of investigation and the growing interest aroused by issues connected with education for ecological transition. It starts from the heuristic hypothesis according to which sustainability competences could constitute a significant pedagogical driver to respond to the working and social exclusion of the analysed target.
Il fenomeno dell’inattività dei maschi adulti, cui si è soliti riferirsi solo per esigenze di comparazione con i gruppi tradizionalmente svantaggiati, assume una peculiare rilevanza al fine di colmare il knowledge gap che lo caratterizza e per la sua valenza euristica nel fare emergere indicazioni prospettiche per uno sviluppo umano integrale. Il contributo accredita l’ipotesi dell’inattività maschile adulta, più elevata in Italia rispetto agli altri paesi europei, quale possibile condizione che incide negativamente non solo sul piano reddituale e della stabilità familiare, ma anche sul conseguimento di competenze spendibili e consapevolezza sociale. La presentazione di uno studio trans-disciplinare sul fenomeno dell’inattività degli uomini adulti pone a tema il rapporto tra l’oggetto d’indagine e il crescente interesse suscitato dalle questioni connesse con l’educazione alla transizione ecologica, a partire dall’ipotesi euristica secondo cui le sustainability competences potrebbero configurare un driver pedagogico significativo per rispondere all’esclusione lavorativa e sociale del target analizzato.

Abstract
The phenomenon of inactivity in adult men, to which we usually refer only for a comparison with traditionally disadvantaged groups, is particularly important for bridging the knowledge gap that characterizes it and for its heuristic value in bringing out prospective indications for an integral human development. The essay confirms the hypothesis of the adult men inactivity, higher in Italy than in other European countries, as a possible condition that negatively affects not only income and family stability, but also the achievement of marketable skills and social awareness. The presentation of a trans-disciplinary study on inactivity in adult men analyses the relationship between object of investigation and the growing interest aroused by issues connected with education for ecological transition. It starts from the heuristic hypothesis according to which sustainability competences could constitute a significant pedagogical driver to respond to the working and social exclusion of the analysed target.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
