On February 14th, 2014, was published the book: ” STEWARDSHIP . Policies and practices for ethical management of resources,” by Annalisa Casino , President of “ STEWARDSHI, Italian Association for the Ethical Management of Resource” , with a foreword by Russ Martin , CEO of Global Product Stewardship Council – editorial Review by Myriam Ines Giangiacomo, co- founder of the association and own director of Bottega Philosophical – . This volume is the first Italian text on the subject and explores the application of the concept of stewardship through an overview of its main areas of application: from product stewardship to the function of stewardship adopted by the World Health Organization, from the standards of paper and marine certification to antibiotic stewardship and management . The study also presents a case study of the experiences of stewardship in areas such as ethics / caring, relational ethics and social innovation of the professions. The objective of this work is to reconstruct the history of a model that attempts to reconcile the differences between a corporate approach to an ethical, psychological, sociological and motivational approach.
