The existence of generalised trust and confidence in a society is decisive for economic development and an effective democracy. Is it possible to fight persistent values of distrust and non-cooperation? Is it possible to support the development of generalised trust through public action and education?The book addresses these questions by examining political efforts to combat Palermo's Mafia-controlled heritage and to turn a traditionPerspectives on democratization.Social capital (Sociology)ItalyPalermoMafiaItalyPalermoTrustCooperationItalyPalermoCivil societyItalyPalermoEducationSocial aspectsItalyPalermoPalermo (Italy)Politics and governmentElectronic books.Social capital (Sociology)MafiaTrust.CooperationCivil societyEducationSocial aspects302.0945/8231Gunnarson Carina1028054MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910465646503321Cultural warfare and trust2443866UNINA00849nam a2200241 i 450099100191333970753620020507153745.0000510s1967 it b 000 0 mul b11582480-39ule_instLE02727314ExLDip.to Studi GiuridiciitaitalatVismara, Giulio211160Edictum Theoderici /di G.

The editor, currently professor at the W.M. Keck Autoimmune Disease Center of The Scripps Research Institute, has assembled an all-star team of authors to report on the latest research, technologies, and applications. Following an introductory chapter, the book goes on to cover such topics as cellular mechanisms of autoantibody production, cliAutoantibodiesAutoimmunityAutoantibodies.Autoimmunity.616.079Pollard K.
