The Role of Social Impact Evaluation in Megaprojects: Reviewing Literature and Analysing Implications from a Managerial Perspective

Paolo Canonico, Ernesto De Nito,,rea Caccialanza, Edoardo Favari

Megaprojects stimulate and challenge public opinion mobilizing wide citizens’ reactions. Given their ability to increasingly attract public attention, they may exert an influence on public participation to collective choices and on political decision making. These issues are relevant for the evaluation of a project, but unfortunately, they are rarely debated in the managerial literature. Our paper wishes to open up a debate related to social issues and how they could be considered according to a more managerial discussion.
