Abstract: Abstract In most developed contemporary societies the normal processes of social life are increasingly disrupted by a growing number of disturbing phenomena from drug addiction to criminality, and the existence of various types of drop-outs from society.1 These problems which are of great concern for the majority of citizens, are usually dealt with by the social sciences in terms of social disintegration, that is, the lack or weakness of cohesion between the elementary ‘particles’ or units building up society.
