The question of imaginary starts where its opposition to reality ends. Once this opposition is dismissed, it becomes possible thinking of imaginary as a mean of construction and transformation of the social reality. A series of essays regarding the taking form of socio-anthropological environments; the collective dynamics of social integration; the mass media metamorphosis; the politics legitimation processes; the symbolic dimension of economics and that of the material culture; the representation of otherness trace an analytical perspective in which imaginary represents an essential tool for a deep understanding of social phenomena. Contributors: Sergio Brancato, Francesca Colella, Stefano Cristante, Fabio DAndrea, Valentina Grassi, Pier Luca Marzo, Milena Meo, Luca Mori, Maria Giovanna Musso, Domenico Secondulfo, Antonio Tramontana, and Pier Paolo Zampieri
