Italian term

comunità di prossimità tradizionale

Italian to English Other Anthropology
L’inclusione digitale e la qualità dell’uso di internet sono inoltre profondamente legati al concetto di società aperta e multiculturale, che nel caso della rete ma anche ormai nella realtà quotidiana comporta l’affievolimento delle barriere fisiche (particolarmente percepite dagli anziani) e con esse anche le sicurezze e le protezioni della comunità di prossimità tradizionale.

communities with / based on the traditional cohesion
