ascensore sociale

it-noun

ascensore sociale f (plural ascensori sociali)

[…] l’«Ipocrisia come ascensore sociale» di John Mac Elroy risponde proprio alle tendenze dei nostri tempi e dice proprio quello che molti sentono ma che pochi osano dire e così bene come fa questo scrittore.

1891, “Dall'America del Nord”, in La rassegna nazionale, volume 60, Florence: Ufizio del periodico:

John McElroy's Hypocrisy as a Social Elevator is a really appropriate answer to the tendencies of our times, and really says what many hear, but few dare to say, much less as well as this writer does.

Con questa scelta strategica dell'organizzazione si era anche attivato un vero e proprio “ascensore sociale” che trasformò persone dei ceti popolari in dirigenti riconosciuti e qualificati in molti contesti economici e sociali.

2013, Flavio Sangalli, “I tracciati di sviluppo organizzativo” (chapter 8), in Grigio Brillante - L'innovazione nel sindacalismo dei pensionati: il caso FNP-Cisl Lombardia, Secondo tracciato: la politica dei quadri del sistema regionale del Sindacato dei Pensionati, page 162:

Through this strategic choice by the organization, a true "social ladder" was activated, which transformed many working-class people in renowned managers, competent in many economical and social contexts.

Quest'ultima è considerata la via principale per rimuovere il privilegio e consentire, grazie alla sua funzione di ascensore sociale, il miglioramento delle condizioni di partenza grazie, appunto, al merito da essa determinato e acquisito.

2023 December, Alessandra Maria Straniero, “Il PEI come strumento contro la retorica del merito - Percorsi di analisi rivolti ai futuri insegnanti di sostegno” (chapter 10), in Ines Guerini, editor, Per una didattica inclusiva - Esperienze di ricerca e formazione nei corsi di specializzazione sul sostegno (Pedagogia interculturale e sociale; 21), RomaTre Press, →ISBN, Il PEI contro la retorica meritocratica (section 3), pages 164–165:

The latter [education] is considered the main way to remove privilege, and allow — thanks to its function as a social ladder — the betterment of starting conditions, thanks, of course, to the merit determined by — and acquired through — it.

(economics, sociology) social ladder (means of upward mobility)


colubrinetta

colubrina (“culverin”) + -etta (diminutive suffix)

af

colobrina

Colobrina da lire. 14. di longhezza piedi. 8. e meggio, vol di metallo lire. 2233. et per condurla buovi para.

An 8½-feet-long 14-pound culverin needs 2233 pounds of metal, and prepare oxen to move it.

ne furono fatti 110. pezzi d’artiglieria fra colobrine, cannoni, falconi, falconetti, petardi, ed altri strumenti

1784, Carlo Fea, Dissertazione sulle rovine di Roma, page 408, collected in Storia delle arti del disegno presso gli antichi - Tomo terzo:
