The purpose of this essay is to analyze the consistency of the relationship existing between social enterprise and social tourism, taking into account first of all the nature of the goods produced and then the organizational and functional specificities of the production model. Through the rereading of the social tourism phenomenology, in the light of the theory of relational and meritorious goods, a detailed analysis of the social enterprise phenomenon in Italy has been realized. Thanks to Le Mat successful case history, the organizational and managerial structure of the productive processes and the social enterprise governance have been deepened. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The judgement of the Italian Constitutional Court no. 131 of June 26, 2020, ruled on the legal regulation of the Third sector, recognizing the possibility for public institutions and Third-sector organizations to establish a “shared administration channel as an alternative to the profit and market ones”. This article starts from the assumption of “welfare common good” as a hermeneutic category to look at the regulatory horizon outlined by the sentence. Firstly, this category will allow identifying the limits and aporias related to the way in which the principle of subsidiarity has been concretely conceived of within the planning of public policies, specifically social ones, up to now. Secondly, the category of “welfare common good” will help re-signifying the legal devices belonging to the so-called “subsidiary law”, by connecting them to those experiences in which new forms of designing welfare services have been effectively implemented in a participatory sense, albeit they have intersected such a normative itinerary only in part so far.
