De Martino, apocalisse e la decolonialità. Riflessioni sulla crisi mezzo secolo dopo
Le recenti riedizioni e traduzioni del volume postumo di Ernesto de Martino La fine del mondo hanno sollecitato numerose riflessioni sull’attualità dell’opera. Questo contributo vuole inserire il dibattito sull’attualità di de Martino all’interno della cornice del pensiero decoloniale, articolando il ragionamento su quattro direttive principali. Come primo punto, si offre una rilettura della crisi demartiniana, declinata, oggi, come la crisi dell…
Ernesto De Martino Y La Actualidad De Su Pensamiento
El historiador de la religión y etnólogo Ernesto de Martino (1908-65) fue una de las figuras fundadoras de la antropología italiana. Fue muy admirado por Luigi Lombardi Satriani, a quien influyó en sus investigaciones sobre creencias y rituales en torno a la muerte y sobre folclore y cambio social. Este artículo destaca la relevancia contemporánea del pensamiento de De Martino no solo para la antropología y los estudios de folclore, sino también …
Policy Worlds
There are few areas of society today that remain outside the ambit of policy processes, and likewise policy making has progressively reached into the structure and fabric of everyday life. An instrument of modern government, policy and its processes provide an analytical window into systems of governance themselves, opening up ways to study power and the construction of regimes of truth. This volume argues that policies are not simply coercive, c…

Raccomandazione
The issue of patronage-clientelism has long been of interest in the social sciences. Based on long-term ethnographic research in southern Italy, this book examines the concept and practice of raccomandazione: the omnipresent social institution of using connections to get things done. Viewing the practice both from an indigenous perspective – as a morally ambivalent social fact – and considering it in light of the power relations that position sou…

Othering Honor-Based Violence
In recent years, so-called honor-based violence has become a major issue for the operators of the women's shelters in South Tyrol (Northern Italy) that support women who have suffered from domestic violence. The antiviolence operators who work in the women's shelters generally relate this form of violence to the experiences of young migrant-origin women. In this article, we discuss the operators' definitions of honor-based violence, which present…

This article examines the G2–Seconde Generazioni network as a response to second-generation social and political marginality in Italy caused by prejudice and the restrictive citizenship regime. Rete G2 was formed in 2005 by second-generation youths whose presence in Italy is linked to diverse migratory phenomena. The network conducts much of its activity online and also operates through local groups in several Italian cities. Along with their goa…

I Quindici Giorni di Scanzano
This paper examines the dramatic events of ‘I Quindici Giorni di Scanzano’, the vast popular uprising in Basilicata in November 2003 that thwarted a government decree to create a consolidated national nuclear waste dump at Scanzano Jonico. The struggle cut across lines of locality, age, social class and political affiliation, mobilizing the populace with various symbols, including references to brigandage, postwar struggles for land, and the Mado…

Adriatic Brethren or Black Sheep
This article considers the shifting image and reception of the over 40,000 Albanians who fled their land for Italian shores during the dramatic events of March and August 1991 (an exodus which, in small numbers, continues even today). The analysis considers a striking rhetorical shift in Italian discourses; if, initially, the Albanians were depicted in this crisis as 'Adriatic brothers' and 'noble savages' who vafidated the ideal of western democ…
