More and more frequently, civil and human rights are predicated on a financial standing, the decline of the welfare system leaves wide swathes of the population without essential social services while politicians are unable to provide satisfactory responses. At such a time, many may consider racism to be an issue of secondary importance. There are, in fact, many reasons why we must not write off the tales of everyday racism as minor events or, at the most, as acts and forms of behaviour stemming from the imbalance that the crisis of the neo‐liberist system creates within nation states. Indeed, it is precisely this ongoing crisis that, by acting as an unequivocal reminder of the world’s interconnectedness, should lead us to finally acknowledge that it is impossible to fight inequality if we remain attached to ‘national’ ideas of rights and citizenship. However, the policies that target immigrants, non‐EU citizens and the Roma community are moving, sadly, in the opposite direction. In 2008 and 2009, institutional racism found its most explicit outlet in the so‐called ‘safety package’. In the two following years, it gained an ever firmer hold over the decision‐making process of local administrators, who combined creative decrees in the field of public order and safety with rulings aimed at limiting social rights for foreign citizens. These are dangerous decisions that could easily be used in the future to justify inequitable treatment among Italians themselves. The breaching of fundamental human rights in Identification and Deportation Centres, the treatment reserved for Tunisian immigrants in the prison‐vessels set up in order to “free” Lampedusa, the fact that the press and unaccredited associations are denied admission to Cie and Cara centres, should alert us to the dangerous regression that the guarantee of civil rights is falling pray to. The instances of exploitation in the work place experienced by many immigrants who work in our fields, in the construction industry and even in the family and domestic care sector (which has the appearance of a deceptively sheltered environment), reveal a vast portion of our country’s economy in which a significant percentage of employees have short term or no contracts. The ease with which a verbal disagreement between a native and a foreign citizen can spiral out of control tells of social system that is fractured, divided and selfishly wrapped up in personal interests. In these pages we deal with all this and other issues, in the knowledge that the inequalities experienced by migrants and Roma form part of a process of erosion of rights (or, should we say, of the cultural values from which they stem) that affects us all. Between 15 July and 31 August 2009 we studied 861 cases of racism reported by the media or on the internet; we offer a selection of them, inevitably incomplete, in the inventory at the end of this volume. It is a long chain of verbal and physical violence, damaged property and discrimination carried out by individuals, groups and political or institutional leaders. On the basis of this first work of collection and analysis, we have singled out some cases that appeared to particularly stand out for the way in 3 which they were reported by the press of for the gravity of the crimes committed. The murder of Saana Dafani, the 23‐year‐old Moroccan woman murdered by her father in September 2009; the Rosarno riot on 7th January 2010, brought to us in the form of articles, photos and images so that all we were left with were its more violent aspects; the Adro affair, where the municipality took a “firm stand” against the families who failed to meet the payment dealine for school meal fees in April 2010; the murder of Maricica Hahaianu, a 33‐year‐old Romanian woman killed after a trivial argument in Anagnina underground station in Rome on 8th October 2010; the murder of Petre Ciurar, a Romanian Roma of 20 shot dead in Barcellona Pozzo di Gotto on December 2010 and the sad tale of those who met their death on the Mediterranean between February and August 2011; all these events allow us to reconstruct communication strategies and practices that tend to provide simplistic and/or stigmatizing portrayals of immigrants and minorities. The death of Yussuf Errahali, a 37‐year‐old Moroccan man who was assaulted and left to die in the cold, in a fountain in a Neapolitan square on 12 January 2010; the suicide of Nourredine Adnane, a young Moroccan street vendor residing in Palermo who set fire to himself after the latest in a series of police inspections on 11 February 2011; the Roma settlement evictions carried out in Rome in April 2011; the racist propaganda that appeared during the campaign for the mayoral elections in Milan and the death of Abderrahaman Salhi who died in mysterious circumstances in Borgo di Frassine, near Padua, in May of the same year; the murder of Imad El Kaalouli, a Moroccan 19‐year‐ old boy killed by his former employer in Desenzano del Garda on 28 June 2011; these are among the most serious events that have occurred in the last two years, largely ignored by the high‐circulation press. Alongside the chronicle of the everyday racism are a number of contributions that try to reconstruct the political and cultural context, starting with the study of the main trends that characterised the public debate and institutional decisions, the development of legislation and jurisprudence, in the field of immigration in the last two years. The impact of the crisis on the foreign workforce, discriminatory policies in the welfare system, the bad management of the influx of immigrants from Tunisia and Libya, the disgraceful policies for the evacuation of Roma settlements, the use of the Italian language test as a further obstacle on the road to social inclusion have provided the material for propaganda but also for unfair, discriminatory and oppressive political choices that impact millions of people’s lives. However, the past two years have also yeilded some positive signals. Court rulings against discrimination show that institutional racism can be fought by offering the victims legal protection. The conclusion, after three years, of the trial on the case of Emmanuel Bonsu, the 22‐yar‐old Ghanaian who was insulted, kidnapped and beaten up by a group of eight local policemen on 29th September 2008, led to an important conviction for one of the most serious racist acts of violence ever reported in our country; for seven of the defendants, the judge accepted racism as an aggravating circumstance. Today, the promotion of a campaign, on the part of two citizens’ initiatives, for the reform of the law on citizenship and the recognition of the right to 4 vote in administrative elections to non‐EU nationals, are causes that have rallied a wider number of supporters than happened with similar campaign launched in the second half of the 90s. We can only hope that these signs foreshadow even greater changes in the future. 5 SECTION 1. THE POLITICAL AND CULTURAL CONTEXT Two years of racism in Italy.

  • A PARALLEL CONTAGION Is Mafia Entrepreneurship Exploiting the Pandemic?
    A PARALLEL CONTAGION Is mafia entrepreneurship exploiting the pandemic? n the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, which at the time of writing had claimed the lives of almost 120 000 people worldwide, there is increasing concern about mafia activity both during the outbreak and in its Iaftermath. The risk is greatest in Italy, the country that has suffered one of the highest numbers of COVID-19- related deaths, where the pandemic is having a significant impact not only on public health but also on the country’s social fabric and economy. With thousands of establishments put out of business in the past month – including bars, restaurants and shops – business owners and workers alike have been deeply affected by the lockdown. To compound the suffering, the estimated 3.3 million workers engaged in the country’s vast informal economy – which has an estimated value of up to €211 billion – are effectively excluded from government financial support. Italy’s mafia groups have, in response, sought to consolidate their social support by distributing food for free in the community. Concerned with this development, the Global Initiative Against Transnational Organized Crime (GI-TOC) has had the privilege of bringing together four leading figures in Italy’s fight against the mafia for a virtual roundtable to discuss how the mafia is repositioning itself during the pandemic, what the implications are and how the Italian government is responding.1 WE FEATURE INTERVIEWS WITH: • Franco Gabrielli, Italian Chief of Police and Director General of Public Security • Nicola Gratteri, Public Prosecutor of Catanzaro, Calabria • Federico Cafiero de Raho, Italian National Anti-Mafia and Counterterrorism Public Prosecutor • Nicola Morra, Chairman of the Parliamentary Anti-Mafia Commission The interviews were led by Sergio Nazzaro, a journalist, writer and adviser to the Parliamentary Anti-Mafia Commission.

  • Mutilation and Killing for Muslim "Honor" - Part 2 of 3
    June 25, 2007 Mutilation And Killing For Muslim "Honor" - Part 2 of 3 This article by Adrian Morgan (Giraldus Cambrensis of Western Resistance) appeared earlier today in Family Security Matters and is reproduced with their permission. Mutilation And Killing For Muslim "Honor" In Three Parts Part Two: A Family Affair In Part One, a few British honor killing cases were described. The phenomenon of killing for "honor" has become a problem wherever large concentrations of migrant Muslims have settled in ghettoes within Western cultures. Families choose to live in the West, but insist on following narrow cultural traditions. Their children are trapped between two cultures. In Germany, there is a community of 3 million Muslims, most of whom are migrant workers from Turkey. In Berlin, there are 200,000 Turks living in run down suburbs. Hatun Surucu was a young woman of Turkish Kurdish origins. On February 7, 2005, when she was aged 23, Hatun was waiting at a bus stop in the Tempelhof district of Berlin. Her 18-year old brother Ayhan approached her and shot her three times in the head. Hatun's death was certainly not the first case of honor killing in Germany, but the media was shocked by the reactions of her family and members of the local community. At a nearby school, filled with children of immigrant families, 14-year old Turkish boys applauded Hatun's killing. One boy said: "She only had herself to blame". Another argued: "She deserved what she got. The whore lived like a German". The media would have sidelined Hatun's case, were it not for the school's director, who sent letters to parents, and copied these to other teachers across Germany.

  • Nomi E Storie Delle Vittime Innocenti Delle Mafie
    Nomi e storie delle vittime innocenti delle mafie a cura di Marcello Scaglione e dei ragazzi del Presidio “Francesca Morvillo” di Libera Genova Realizzato in occasione della mostra “900 Nomi vittime di mafia dal 1893 ad oggi” inaugurata ad Imperia il 21 Marzo 2016 in occasione della XXI Giornata della memoria e dell’impegno - ”Ponti di memoria, luoghi di impegno”. I nomi presenti nella mostra sono quelli accertati fino all'anno 2015, ed in particolare quelli letti a Bologna durante la XX Giornata della Memoria e dell'Impegno in ricordo delle vittime innocenti delle mafie (21 marzo 2015). Il lavoro di ricerca, inizialmente limitato a quell'elenco, è stato poi implementato e aggiornato, comprendendo quindi le storie delle vittime innocenti i cui nomi sono stati letti durante la XXI Giornata della Memoria e dell'Impegno (21 marzo 2016). Sarà nostro impegno e cura eseguire successivamente gli aggiornamenti necessari. Siamo inoltre disponibili a intervenire sulle singole storie, laddove dovessero essere ravvisati errori e/o imprecisioni. EMANUELE NOTABARTOLO, 01/02/1893 Nato in una famiglia aristocratica palermitana, presto rimane orfano di entrambi i genitori. Cresciuto in Sicilia, nel 1857 si trasferisce prima a Parigi, poi in Inghilterra, dove conosce Michele Amari e Mariano Stabile, due esuli siciliani che lo influenzeranno molto. Avvicinatosi all'economia e alla storia, diventa sostenitore del liberalismo conservatore (quindi vicino alla Destra storica). Dal 1862 Emanuele Notarbartolo diventa prima reggente, poi titolare, del Banco di Sicilia, al quale si dedica a tempo pieno a partire dal 1876, salvandolo dal fallimento in seguito all'Unità d'Italia. Il suo lavoro al Banco di Sicilia inizia a inimicargli molta gente.

Ogni giorno che passa si allontana la possibilità di ripresa economica. Dopo quello che e' accaduto – prosegue Alessandri – è giusto verificare , con tecnici abilitati, che gli edifici siano statisticamente idonei per la sicurezza in piena regola degli operai; ma le certificazioni di agibilità le dovrebbero produrre solo i tecnici della protezione civile. Infatti la Protezione civile dovrebbe creare appositi gruppi di lavoro sul territorio. Quale professionista privato rilascerebbe mai in questo momento certificati di agibilità sismica? Poi su che taratura? Così come e' scritta l’ordinanza – ribadisce il Presidente - vuol dire non permettere di riaprirne nessuno, a prescindere. Se, per evitare responsabilità in caso di nuove forti scosse, anche per opifici a posto e senza danni, si vuole tenerli chiusi ad oltranza , si tratta - conclude Alessandri - di una presa di posizione che va esattamente nel senso contrario di quanto chiedono gli interessati e di quanto tutti vengono a promettere durante le “passerelle” nella nostra Emilia martoriata”.

ABSTRACT Today, Italy contains one of the most rapidly changing populations of the European Union. Currently, 7.2% of Italy’s 60 million residents are non-citizens. Recent demographic data trends towards a large demographic shift in Italy society. One of every six babies delivered was born to a foreign born immigrant in 2008. This wave of immigration, especially the segment arriving from Africa, has not been integrated smoothly into Italian society, however. Because of a prevailing xenophobic attitude in Italy, immigrants have been greeted with prejudice and even acts of violence. Thus, immigrants have become the “other” in Italy. The purpose of this thesis is to uncover “othering” in Italy and its origins through the translation of a work of a respected Italian journalist (Gian Antonio Stella). Additionally, this thesis offers a reflection on the process of translation. i TABLE OF CONTENTS ABSTRACT..………………………………………………………………………………..i TABLE OF CONTENTS……………………………………………………………………ii

But with a recent spike in the price of road salt and a shrinking salt supply, that process may take longer than usual. “The road conditions aren’t going to clear up as quickly,” said Quincy Combs of the Charleston Street Department. “We’ve really had to conserve (salt).” Before last year’s snow sea- son, one ton of road salt cost $49, Combs said. At the beginning of this season, that price had climbed to $90.50 per ton and is now near $168 per ton. To reduce salt use, Combs said the city is salting only targeted streets and intersections.
