      <abstract xml:lang="en">
        <p>The title of this volume recalls that of Alain Touraine's book Le monde des femmes, and shares its main theses. It is argued, in fact, that in order to grasp the innovative and significant processes of change for the contemporary society, we must pay renewed attention to women as social subjects who act as a function of a "recomposition of the world". This thesis is put to the test on the empirical ground, with the results of some research carried out in the Prato "district", a rapidly changing society in which women emerge as the central subject of change - in the workplace, but also in the cultural and political sphere - presenting themselves as agents of social and economic transformation. The research field focuses on self-employed and entrepreneurial work, on private practices and, in relation to these, takes into consideration the family, the processes of formation of social capital, the generational turnover, including in the analysis also the migratory phenomenon. The publication of this work was encouraged and supported by the Soroptimist International Association of Prato and, in particular, by the President Anna Edy Pacini Sanesi.</p>

        <p>Il titolo di questo volume richiama quello del libro di Alain Touraine Le monde des femmes, e ne condivide le tesi principali. Si sostiene, infatti, che per cogliere i processi innovativi e di mutamento significativi per la società contemporanea, dobbiamo prestare una rinnovata attenzione alle donne come soggetti sociali, che agiscono in funzione di una "ricomposizione del mondo". Questa tesi viene messa alla prova sul terreno empirico, con i risultati di alcune ricerche condotte nel "distretto" pratese, una società in rapida trasformazione in cui le donne emergono come soggetto centrale del cambiamento – in ambito lavorativo così come in quello culturale e politico – proponendosi come agenti della trasformazione sociale ed economica. Il terreno di ricerca si concentra sul lavoro autonomo e imprenditoriale, sulle libere professioni e, in relazione a queste, prende in considerazione la famiglia, i processi di formazione del capitale sociale, il ricambio generazionale, includendo nell'analisi anche il fenomeno migratorio. La pubblicazione di questo lavoro è stata incoraggiata e sostenuta dall'Associazione Soroptimist International Club di Prato, e in particolare dalla Presidente Anna Edy Pacini Sanesi.</p>
