Originally presented at the Fourth Italo-american Conference at William Paterson University of New Jersey in May 1999, the essays in this volume deal with important social science issues of the past millennium that still continue in this new one.

Recognizing that problems often do not remain fixed within specific times and dates, we seek a balanced theoretical and empirical approach to these ongoing issues. Life is full of expectations which hope and intelligence can only partially satisfy. When we speak of society, state, and community, we not only think about institutions and symbols of the past, but also of the future. Moreover, these different levels of organized human endeavor often constitute problems requiring either readjustement or reconstitution in response to new events and insights. The collective effort of the authors is to give a viable framework for an adequate reading and interpretation of ever-and-never lasting questions affecting humanity everywhere now-a-days
