Following the theory of wet and dry drinking cultures in the age of globalization (Room, 2011), this study aims to identify the characteristics of drinking cultures and examine how they influence alcohol consumption in small communities. More specifically, it defines a local Veneto drinking culture and investigates how this culture shapes patterns of alcohol consumption within the communities of the Asiago Plateau. The empirical research adopts a qualitative methodology, including participant observation in daytime and nighttime drinking venues, semi-structured interviews with participants of different genders and age groups, and interviews with key informants, such as bartenders, venue owners, and healthcare professionals. The aim is to explore the manifestations of the local drinking culture and its influence on alcohol consumption.
Seguendo le teorie delle drinking cultures wet e dry nell'epoca della globalizzazione (Room, 2011), questo lavoro mira a definire quali sono le culture del bere e come influenzano il consumo di alcolici nelle piccole comunità. Nello specifico, lo studio definisce una drinking culture veneta e locale e osserva come questa orienti le modalità di consumo di alcol all'interno delle comunità dell'Altopiano di Asiago. La ricerca empirica utilizza metodologie qualitative, ossia osservazione partecipante in locali diurni e notturni, interviste semistrutturate per genere ed età e interviste rivolte a testimoni privilegiati (come baristi, proprietari di locali e personale medico), allo scopo di osservare le manifestazioni della cultura del bere e la loro influenza sul consumo.

Abstract
Following the theory of wet and dry drinking cultures in the age of globalization (Room, 2011), this study aims to identify the characteristics of drinking cultures and examine how they influence alcohol consumption in small communities. More specifically, it defines a local Veneto drinking culture and investigates how this culture shapes patterns of alcohol consumption within the communities of the Asiago Plateau. The empirical research adopts a qualitative methodology, including participant observation in daytime and nighttime drinking venues, semi-structured interviews with participants of different genders and age groups, and interviews with key informants, such as bartenders, venue owners, and healthcare professionals. The aim is to explore the manifestations of the local drinking culture and its influence on alcohol consumption.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
