Italian term or phrase: volontà sociale
Quanto alla presunta assenza di una volontà sociale distinta da quella dello stesso (name), ovvero all'asserita mancanza di un potere di eterodirezione nei confronti di quest'ultimo

I am reviewing a translation. Above phrase was translated as "As for the presumed lack of a social goodwill different from (name)’s one, that is the alleged lack of a controlled power toward this latter" ...

This does not convince me at all!

Explanation:
Is the word "social" being used in the sense of "società" here? Unfortunalely Google will probably be of little use here unless you can filter out all the volunteer welfare pages.
