Il rapporto che intercorre tra la pedagogia e le politiche sociali, richiama oggi l’attenzione verso una riflessione circa l’importanza della relazione tra la sfera educativa e la dimensione economica. Già Piero Bertolini, nel suo saggio “La responsabilità educativa. Studi di pedagogia sociale” aveva posto l’accento su quanto fosse necessaria e indispensabile la dimensione economica ma, al tempo stesso, di come la stessa dovesse inderogabilmente essere declinata con fattori gestiti prevalentemente in chiave pedagogica, per offrire soluzioni capaci di perdurare nel tempo. L’emergenza sanitaria degli ultimi mesi, dovuta alla diffusione del Coronavirus ha posto al centro della riflessione pedagogica la necessità di recuperare il senso della relazione educativa e, al tempo stesso, del fare pratica di solidarietà e di cittadinanza. Il presente contributo muove dalla riflessione pedagogica sulla dimensione economica nelle scienze dell’educazione, sul rapporto che intercorre tra l’economia e l’educazione, al fine di provare a ridefinire nuove politiche sociali, quindi un nuovo sistema di welfare sostenibile e orientato sul valore della persona per scardinare il fallimento di una dinamica di tipo esclusivamente assistenzialista.

Abstract
The relationship between pedagogy and social policies today draws attention to a reflection on the importance of the relationship between the educational sphere and the economic dimension. Already Piero Bertolini, in his essay “La responsabilità educativa. Studi di pedagogia sociale” had emphasized how necessary and indispensable the economic dimension was but, at the same time, how it had to be declined with factors managed mainly in a pedagogical key, in order to offer solutions capable of continuing over time. The health emergency of recent months, due to the spread of coronavirus, has placed at the center of pedagogical reflection the need to recover the sense of the educational relationship and, at the same time, to practice solidarity and citizenship. This paper is based on pedagogical reflection on the economic dimension in the education sciences, on the relationship between the economy and education, in order to try to redefine new social policies, then a new system of sustainable welfare oriented on the value of the person to undermine the failure of an exclusively welfare dynamic.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
