The Cooperative Economy + ProSocial World

Yesterday, an article of mine was published in This View of Life, a magazine spearheaded by David Sloan Wilson(DSW), synthesizing three perspectives: DSW’s “prosocial” biology with, among others, Elinor Ostrom’s Commons-based economics and Steven Hayes’ relational psychology.

The article focuses on Italy’s tradition of social and community cooperatives, looking at them from an evolutionary perspective, adopting Tinbergen’s “Four Questions” (Function, History, Mechanism and Development) as a framing device. It is largely based on my own research during my PhD.
