Dalla socialità dell'impresa all'impresa sociale

In the italian economical context, not for profit (NFP) organizations have always had a particular importance. The main issue of this book concerns the social role of this particular way of producing goods and/or services, expecially if compared to ordinary way of having business: the for profit productions. The social role of NFP organizations, in fact, has contributed to the law innovation dealing with social firms ("impresa sociale") but not only the NFPs play a social role; according to the author, even for profit firms plays - and has always played - a very important social importance, expecially because they have employee (and give them earnings necessary in order to live and mantain their own family) and expecially because the nature of the firm is to produce goods and/or services that somebody need. The way is different between NFP and for profit entities, but the social scope is the same.
