In this chapter,1 we examine social workers holding elected office (SWHEOs) in Italy, focusing on the national and local levels. Our findings reveal that SWHEOs are predominantly a local phenomenon, with a significant concentration in small and medium-sized municipalities. This local engagement is influenced by the structure of Italy’s political system and the specific professional characteristics of social work.
