El cine es una diversión que hay que tomar muy en serio. Un fin que puede, incluso, ser tomado como medio. Los educadores así lo han comprendido desde hace años, y los profesores de Derecho no iban a ser menos. Al cine nada de lo humano le es ajeno, y por eso quienes se dedican a la docencia en el ámbito jurídico son conscientes de que, si se puede gozar con el cine —esa bella arte—, también se puede trabajar con él en el aula. Es necesario, claro está, estar dispuesto a ello, poseer una cultura cinematográfica apropiada y diseñar adecuadamente esta estrategia pedagógica, como se hace con cualquier táctica formativa para que resulte eficaz. Es esencial seleccionar correctamente aquellas películas o escenas que puedan ser útiles en un determinado momento para trabajar en clase, teniendo claro qué se pretende del alumnado con dicho trabajo, además de ilustrar el tratamiento de la cuestión académica que sea. El presente libro es fruto del trabajo desarrollado por un grupo de docentes, principalmente profesores de asignaturas jurídicas de la Universidad de Málaga, miembros de un Proyecto de Innovación Educativa titulado «La inserción del cine en la docencia de asignaturas jurídicas: la relevancia de la lengua inglesa» (PIE19-016), coordinado por el Profesor de Derecho Civil Antonio J. Quesada Sánchez. En él se recopilan una serie de fichas de trabajo que describen experiencias individuales puestas en práctica por los docentes con sus respectivos grupos de alumnos, todas conectadas con el cine.

Job satisfaction is an employee attitude that must be observed by every user of human resources as an organizational mover. This is important to do so that workers get satisfaction and feel that their expectations for the organization can be fulfilled. Factors that cause job satisfaction must be analyzed in order to become the basis of company policy. This study intends to determine the role of work experience, supervision, and career development on job satisfaction. The population in this study are workers in one of the companies in the city of Gresik with a total of 76 people. The sampling technique uses saturated sampling. The analysis technique used in this research is multiple linear regression test. This study concludes that all variables have a partial and simultaneous significant effect on job satisfaction variables.

Leaders should always consider the policies made, taking into account the aspects that give rise to employee job satisfaction.
Life Cycle Assessment of Incineration Technique for Management of Used Sanitary Napkins
Authors: Inmandar Sajid
Published: June 2024

Solid waste management is becoming very serious problem in world. Among various disposal methods incineration is the one. Almost 90 percent of content of SN is plastic. The plastic used in SN is non-biodegradable which is not only harmful for human health but also for environment. SN stays in the landfill for up to 800 years. Problem of disposal of used SN increases rapidly. For safe disposal of used SN incinerators are good solution or technique. If incinerators are used according to ecofriendly guidelines then they create less pollution. They should be operated at certain specific temperature so that they emit less harmful gasses. Incinerator which is used for hygienic disposal of SN and biomedical waste in an instant way and generated ash is collected in a bottom ash tray. Incinerator designed to operate very safely and easily. Disposal of SN by burning process required less time. Life cycle assessment is also carried out to calculate the impact of solid waste on environment. This may prove to be beneficial in current scenario.

The evolution and impact of Boko Haram in the Lake Chad Basin in a Multipolar world.
Authors: Awah Jeremaih Acuro , Xue Furong , Ngoye Sophie tatiana , Achonwa Ethel CHinwe
Published: June 2024

The Boko Haram insurgency is a security threat to the countries of the Lake Chad Basin Region made up of Nigeria, Cameroon, Chad and Niger. This article portrays an analysis on the origin and regionalization of Boko Haram. More importantly, this study also attempts to highlight the pivotal role that cooperation with friendly external partners (such as Russia, and China) can play in the fight against terrorist groups such as Boko Haram in Africa. Our analysis argues that, Boko Haram's terrorism in the Lake Chad region is driven by the combination of overlapping and self-complementing factors like political and economic interests, rather than religion, with implications for security and counterterrorism efforts. In the the end, recommendations were suggested on how to overcome this terrorist organisation. This article utilizes a combination of social conflict theory and terrorism studies to analyze the origins and impact of Boko Haram. Social conflict theory helps to explain how economic inequality and political instability can contribute to the rise of extremist groups like Boko Haram. Terrorism studies provide insight into the tactics and strategies used by Boko Haram to achieve their goals. This article employs a multidisciplinary approach, drawing on a range of primary and secondary sources, including academic literature, government reports, and media sources. The methodology includes qualitative analysis of historical and contemporary data to provide insights into the origins and evolution of the Boko Haram activities, as well as the impact it has had on the affected communities and the countries of the Lake Chad Basin Region. This analysis gave the opportunity to suggest recommendations on how to overcome the Boko Haram and terrorism in Africa in general.
On how the universality of rights translates into national politics and practices of exclusion: The spectre of precarity among young “migrants”
Authors: Notarangelo Cristina
Published: June 2024

The structural presence of young migrants leads us to investigate the different levels and practices through which inclusion and exclusion processes are declined in daily life also considering the persistence of apparent and concealed barriers affecting the construction of new forms of political, social and cultural cohesion. Drawing on life stories of young people who arrived in Italy from the country of origin at different stages of their educational formation and socialization process and on fieldwork, this ethnographic paper explores the material and symbolic consequences engendered by the tension existing between Italian educational policy and norms regulating the status of migrants and more in general the effects of immigration policies. A case study conducted in the city of Genoa provides evidence of discrepancies between the aims of some institutions, in particular schools, which even if with lots of contradictions try to valorize multiple belongings and to adhere to international Conventions on human rights, and an “outside” context which ties the permit of residence in Italy to the sphere of labour or to the involvement in the education system provided that the family of a dependent major student have the required income. This fact limits the opportunities and redefines the rights both of second generations and adult migrants educated elsewhere and migrated in search for a new or better life. The expectations of young migrants with multiple identities are thus betrayed because they have to confront walls and barriers which distance them from citizens, citizenship and connected rights.
Memory and production of ethnic otherness among internally displaced people in Azerbaijan
Authors: Dehkhareghani Jvan Yazdani
Published: June 2024

Drawing on ethnographic research conducted among Internally Displaced Persons in the Republic of Azerbaijan, this paper explores the representations of enmity among survivors of violence and displacement, and the emergence of a mythologized and depersonalized other. It documents a primordialistic vision of ethnicity – promoted in the past by Soviet political and academic rhetoric – and the strategic use of memory and history. Parallel, it considers epistemological and ethical questions raised by ethnographic representation of victims of conflict and violence, in a context of ethno-nationalist mobilization, thus revealing a seductive and didactic character in the accounts offered by the informers. A problematization of ethnographic description of mass violence and memory of extreme events is pursued further by taking into account discrepancies between public and private discourses on conflict and the other. Finally, it argues for an analysis of collective memory of violence that privileges its strategic uses and individual representations over shared and collective perceptions of history.
Experiences that intertwine… Lives that are built: Narratives of an immigrant
Authors: Schreiner Davi F. , Pereira Ivonete
Published: June 2024

The present research aims to analyze the social construction of subjectivity, as regarding the means of living through and interpreting social relations, and attributing meaning to individual or collective practices. The point of departure is Josef Umann’s autobiography: “Memories of a Bohemian Immigrant”. The narrative consists on the author’s experiences as a young man, his emigration from south Bohemia to south Brazil and his role on foundation of a new community: the colony of Santa Cecilia, situated in the state of Rio Grande do Sul. The struggle for better work conditions and wages in the factories, – as well as the contact with socialist ideologies – lead Umann to (re)elaborate his own representations and meanings for social freedom- which could only be attained outside the factory. The emigration becomes, thus, the vehicle to the formation of a new setting – a novel ambience in which land, labor, freedom and even reciprocity, itself, are re-signified by the immigrant’s agency, becoming the core values of their "new" homeland’s way of life.

The manuscript De las costumbres antiguas de los naturales del Pirú: A new focus on its history and authorship
Authors: Laurencich Minelli Laura
Published: June 2024

A new track about the anonymous ms. De las Costumbres antiguas de los naturales del Pirú (1594/95-1600) is proposed according to the ms. De Tahuantinsuyu prischis gentibus mentioned by Blas Valera’s Exsul Immeritus (Alcalá de Henares 1618) as a work he handled to F. Acosta in 1586. Many data suggest this source being translated into Spanish and updated by an Italian Jesuit: for untangling the matter the ms. De las Costumbres is here compared with Blas Valera’s Exsul Immeritus, as well as with other sources related to De las Costumbres and the matter of establishing some kind of Inca “Reduccion” in the Virreinato del Perú.
Women who become men? The sworn virgins in Albanian traditional culture
Authors: Martucci Donato
Published: June 2024

Between the end of the nineteenth century and the first half of the twentieth, many travelers and scholars who traveled in the mountainous areas of Western Balkans Dinaric Alps were fascinated by the presence of women who looked, in varying degrees, masculinized: the sworn virgins or virgjineshë. The descriptions of the phenomenon, however, were often influenced by the observer's eye, alien to the socio-cultural context. This essay will explore the historical and ethnographic evidences of this phenomenon, reconstructing the transformations and discussing the category of “social man”, associated with the sworn virgins.
Two women at the well: The “good wife” in patriarchal society
Authors: Paganelli Leonardo
Published: June 2024

Rebekah in Genesis, XXIV and the Samaritan girl in John’s Gospel, IV are the two characters of a diptych: both are portrayed while drawing water from a well. Yet Rebecca seems to be the pattern of the ‘good wife’ and the Samaritan girl – on the contrary – the pattern of the ‘bad wife’, according to patriarchal morals. So the act of drawing water from a well becomes a symbol of woman’s subjection to man during patriarchism. In contemporary times, a short story of Grazia Deledda’s abolishes woman’s subjection, replacing it by husband’s and wife’s complementarity.

The snake on the table: Authority and control of the rain in a Huave oral narrative (Mexico)
Authors: Lupo Alessandro
Published: June 2024

In this article I analyze some versions of a mythical Huave narrative, telling the tragic fate of a boy with extraordinary powers who, due to his indiscrete father, is forced by the municipal authorities to repeatedly face a giant snake that causes heavy rains and threatens to flood the village, and is finally killed by it. This tale not only stages the opposite cosmic forces which regulate the delicate climatic balance of the Huave region, but it shows how, since immemorial times, the ability to control rainfall constitutes a major symbolic attribute of the holders of political authority, which inspires important ritual practices and condenses tensions concerning the struggle for power between competing generations and individuals. The conduct of the various protagonists of this narrative also highlights the principles on which authority is based, the axiological and behavioral patterns to which those who aspire to attain and preserve it must adhere, as well as the dangerous consequences that await those who contravene these rules.
Irony and joking in ethnographic fieldwork: Reflections from Santo Antão Island (Cape Verde)
Authors: Giuffrè Martina
Published: June 2024

In this essay I address the crucial role of irony and joking in anthropology with a focus on the ethnographic relationship. My starting point is field research carried out from 2001 to 2004 on Santo Antão island (Cape Verde), specifically Ponta do Sol. In Cape Verdean practice, jokes and irony represent customary communicational modes and important tools for building relationships: the ultimate means of achieving “cultural intimacy”, they are used almost as rites of initiation to bring newcomers into the community and at the same time to manage ambiguities. Indeed, it was precisely through irony that my interlocutors were able to perfectly capture my ambiguous insider/outsider position. In this specific ethnographic context, the ironic relationship is understood as both a key communication tool in the ethnographic encounter and an unusual rite of passage: although strangers/anthropologists can only be accepted if they become Cape Verdean to some degree, in reality they are never really able to complete this passage. The essay briefly reviews irony and joking in anthropology and focuses on aspects of ironic interactions in Cape Verde that are linked to intercultural relations in the ethnographic context as a site of uncertain communication. I stress how, especially in intercultural contexts, the ambiguity of irony represents not a barrier to communication but rather a key element of understanding between anthropologists and informants as well as a significant heuristic device.
The Grammar of Identity: Bilingual school, teachers and the “rescue” of identity in San Mateo del Mar (Oaxaca, Mexico)
Authors: Tallè Cristiano
Published: June 2024

In the last twenty years the pluralistic turn in the political and legal arena overturned the indigenist discourse of “incorporación” that sustained the educational politics for indigenous peoples in Mexico as in many countries of Latin America during the twentieth century. Nevertheless, working in an ethnographic perspective, this change can be read in a different way, by observing an opposite process that the official discourse disowns, which is the “incorporation” of the school in the indigenous societies. This article, which arises from a long experience of field research in the Huave indigenous community of San Mateo del Mar in southern Mexico, aims to reflect on the role of school in authorizing the identity discourse. Through the analysis of a grammar lesson of indigenous language (ombeayiüts /our mouth/), I want to show how a background discourse of identity take root in the classroom, in the interference between use of the native language and the Spanish language; it is the same discourse that has supported, since the early 90’s, the assumption of pronoun ikoots (“we” in inclusive form) as a new endo-ethnonym and, in a parallel way, the definition of a political role for indigenous teachers in the community.
Cry and silence: Stories of child abuse in Mwanza (Tanzania)
Authors: Sciarrino Nicoletta
Published: June 2024

This article examines practices and ideologies which underlie the care and the protection of children in Tanzania. In doing so, it questions the way in which certain categories -such as ‘childhood’ and ‘abuse’- are defined from a Western point of view and then exported by NGOs. The humanitarian discourse claim to cast models, values and "universal" rights on an international scale. This entails that the circumstances related to them can be misunderstood and it promotes an unsophisticated way to approach problematic issues -such as child abuse and neglect- as well. The article focuses on the activities of an organization that deals with abused and neglected children in Mwanza and on the life stories of two little girls, whom I name Allison and Amina. The paper follows practices and conversations which characterized the take responsibility the child in order to bring out situations in which the social actors are experiencing changes in their environment as well as new types of relationships, on which local ways of life collide with ideologies, values and practice introduced by aid workers and Western organizations.

Città invisibili? Riflessioni sulla questione urbana in Oceania
Authors: Dussy Dorothée , Wittersheim Eric
Published: June 2024

Per quale ragione la città è rimasta per così lungo tempo un oggetto invisibile per l’antropologia oceaniana? Cosa significa essere un cittadino oceaniano? Quali sono i campi d’interesse e d’indagine degli antropologi del mondo urbano oceaniano? A partire da un bilancio di ricerche svolte in questi ultimi decenni nei diversi arcipelaghi del Pacifico, questo articolo si impegna ad aprire queste diverse problematiche. Vedremo come l’interesse degli antropologi per l’autentico, per il mondo rurale e le piccole comunità autoctone, ha inibito durevolmente l’osservazione del mondo recente, un mondo introdotto dalla colonizzazione e costituito da raggruppamenti eterocliti di immigrati venuti da orizzonti tracciati prima dalla storia coloniale poi dalla mondializzazione. L’articolo dimostra che i mondi urbani oceaniani offrono un insieme eclettico di situazioni. Esse articolano la tematica della creolizzazione, dell’economia informale, della periurbanizzazione e delle migrazioni circolari, dei rapporti tra espatriati e autoctoni, e delle usanze contemporanee del “costume”. Infine prenderemo atto, per concludere, del diritto dei mondi urbani dell’Oceania ad avere una buona posizione sulla scena dell’antropologia legittima, accanto agli studi che riguardano i mondi rurali detti tradizionali.
Il centro del centro: Il Tempio buddhista e il capodanno cinese nello spazio urbano di Prato
Authors: Parbuono Daniele
Published: June 2024

L’articolo analizza alcuni aspetti importanti delle relazioni e delle contese spaziali tra il Tempio dell’“Associazione Buddista della comunità cinese in Italia” e la complessa realtà Pratese. La città, cresciuta in modo significativo con la migrazione interna (italiana) del secondo dopoguerra, negli ultimi tre decenni è stata interessata da un costante flusso migratorio cinese che ne ha trasformato i rapporti spaziali e le concezioni del vivere. In questo contesto, l’Associazione-Tempio organizza differenti attività aggregative legate al culto o favorite dalle esigenze della condizione migratoria. Nelle occasioni festive il Tempio riceve pellegrini provenienti anche da altre città italiane, oltre ad accoglie con riguardo autorità politiche e religiose, appositamente invitate, sottolineando il peso quantitativo e socioculturale della comunità cinese. La forza propulsiva del Tempio emerge osservando gli eventi e le dinamiche politiche legate al Capodanno cinese, quando le parate in costume promosse dall’Associazione attraversano le vite private e professionali delle famiglie pratesi (albanesi, marocchine, italiane, cinesi…), evocando il diritto simbolico di utilizzare lo spazio urbano durante tutto il corso dell’anno.

Postfazione: L'antropologia, il non umano e l'ontological turn
Authors: Mancuso Alessandro
Published: June 2024

Questa postfazione ha due scopi: un breve bilancio critico del cosiddetto “ontological turn” nelle scienze umane, e un commento a qualcuno dei temi sollevati dagli articoli riuniti in questa sezione tematica sull’antropologia del non-umano. Argomento, in accordo a quanto sottolineato da tutti i contributi, che la questione di come pensare il politico e i rapporti di potere è cruciale per qualsiasi valutazione di questa nuova “svolta”. Un esame del modo in cui Descola, Latour, Viveiros de Castro e i loro seguaci hanno trattato questo tema deve considerare le differenze che esistono tra i loro approcci teorici, come anche tra il tipo di implicazioni politiche che questi studiosi ne traggono. In ogni caso, agli approcci “ontologici” nel loro insieme sembra sfuggire la complessità di fattori che mediano i rapporti tra ontologia e politica. Tutti gli articoli di questo numero speciale affrontano questo nodo, attraverso studi di caso etnografici che riguardano campi di ricerca raramente esplorati in prospettiva “onto-politica”. Inoltre, essi coprono uno spettro di temi più ampio di quello di interesse “ontologico”, contribuendo così a connettere le discussioni attuali sull’“ontological turn” ad altre aree del dibattito antropologico contemporaneo.

Family migration from Mexico to the United States and from Peru to Italy
Authors: López Pozos Cecilia
Published: June 2024

The purpose of this paper is to present the results of an investigation of a psychosocial nature, made with transnational families who migrate from Mexico to the United States and from Peru to Italy. These families are known in the literature on migration as transnational families, because they are characterized by the separation of its members in two countries and live, as a result of this split family in their internal structure, changes and alterations in the mental health of any of its members. The methodology used in this study was qualitative (ethnography and in-depth interview) with fifty families (twenty five Mexican and twenty Peruvian). The results obtained in this investigation indicate that the traditional structures of Mexican families can be modified, as a result of male migration, resulting in a new form of transnational family characterized by the distance of the couple, the peripheral father's absence and adjustment problems of both children and wife at the time of family reunification.In the case of the traditional families of Peru, the results indicate that the transformation process begins with the separation from the mother's home, which assumes the role of provider and manager of the family still in the distance, while the father remains as caretaker of the children in the place of origin. When family reunification is achieved, by the wife becomes more employment and economic role, leaving the husband to a position of distance and passivity. The experience of living apart, husband/wife and daughters/sons long-living "here" and "there" - are circumstances which may favour the disappearance of traditional patriarchal structures of the past that have shaped the family life of the countries of Latin America. In such circumstances, members of transnational families – both Peruvian and Mexican – are exposed to the deterioration of their mental health. Economic gains migration have provided an emotional toll, as evidenced in certain conditions such as depression, stress and psychological pain, conditions that are maximized by the conditions of secrecy, solitude, racial discrimination, rejection, job segregation and overcrowding migrants living in the host society.

The contributions of Chinese anthropology: A conversation between Roberto Malighetti and Yang Shengmin
Authors: Malighetti Roberto , Shengmin 杨圣敏 Yang
Published: June 2024

This article is the product of a long-term relationship between Prof. Yang Shengmin (Minzu University of China) and Prof. Roberto Malighetti (University of Milano-Bicocca). It is the outcome of a scientific collaboration that started in 2012 in Beijing, continued with the conference Anthropologies From in China. The First Italian Conference (University of Milano-Bicocca, 13.12. 2013), and was consolidated by the didactic activities at the Minzu University of China. It took the present form in the course of a conversation in the offices of the Collaborative Innovation Center for Ethnic Minority Development (Minzu University, Beijing) on the 6th of June 2016. Transcribed and then revised by both authors, the text considers the importance of Chinese anthropology and its contribution to the international dialogue. It probes the possibilities open to Chinese anthropology to offer an original articulation of its tradition with the Western influences that accompanied, from the very beginning, the development of anthropology in China. The Chinese innovative proposals are synthetized under three approaches: the historical, the Marxist, the applied, and the study of minorities.
Culture della sostenibilità silenziosa: Consumare biologico nell’Antropocene
Authors: Orlando Giovanni
Published: June 2024

Questo saggio analizza il consumo di cibi biologici a Palermo come chiave per illustrare la presenza di una cultura della sostenibilità silenziosa basata sui timori alimentari legati all’inquinamento. Esso mostra come alcuni abitanti di Palermo contrappongano gli alimenti biologici a quelli convenzionali secondo nozioni di salubrità e contaminazione, scegliendo i primi per evitare d’ingerire sostanze nocive. Esaminando il consumo di cibo biologico da una prospettiva «post-Pasteuriana», il saggio pone particolare attenzione agli aspetti concernenti la percezione culturale dei problemi ambientali e il ruolo della scienza e della tecnologia nella produzione alimentare. Così facendo, esso mostra come le opinioni di alcune delle persone che mangiano cibi biologici permettano d’intravedere valori derivanti da un rifiuto dell’eccesso, tema che ha numerosi punti di contatto con le più recenti teorie della sostenibilità, come quella dell’Antropocene e dei confini planetari. Sebbene i timori alimentari siano alle volte bollati come egoistici e individualisti, il saggio suggerisce che il consumo di alimenti biologici può essere considerato una forma di «sostenibilità silenziosa». Pur rappresentando un caso di studio di antropologia del cibo, questo saggio tenta di connettere la particolarità etnografica con i processi socio-ecologici globali, compiendo uno sforzo per demistificare le ideologie della crescita, dello sviluppo e del consumismo.

Theatrical language, narrative techniques and anti-anti-Gypsyism
Authors: Mochi Sismondi Andrea
Published: June 2024

With this article based on his fieldwork in Šuto Orizari, a Municipality in the suburbs of Skopje (Macedonia), the author analyses how theatrical language and narrative techniques can be used to oppose the strengthening of anti-gypsism in public opinion. Šuto Orizari is the only Municipality in the world where romanés is used as an official language, and the Mayor and the majority of the members of the assembly of the municipality come from the Roma community, thus enjoying a degree of effective self-government. Andrea Mochi Sismondi and Fiorenza Menni lived there for two years trying to understand the different visions of the world originating among Roma, while collecting dramaturgical materials later used in the production of two theatrical performances, a book and several public events where Roma and Gadžé can exchange their points of view on fundamental issues concerning political philosophy. Freedom, equality, the legitimate aspiration to a better life, freedom of movement: all values modern constitutions are based on, and on which the two artists focused their long interviews and conversations with Šuto Orizari citizens and Roma colleagues. The work has been presented all over Italy and its results reveal how literary non-fiction and performing arts can be successfully used to show the weakness of the arguments alleging the cultural distance that would make the dialogue between Roma and Gadžé impossible.

Flexible academic man: Two cases compared
Authors: Koensler Alexander , Papa Cristina
Published: June 2024

With the acceleration of the neoliberal management of academic institutions, the rules of evaluation change continuously in unpredicatable ways. In this contribution, we analyze the changes in evaluation criteria in two cases, one Italian and one in the UK. Despite the diversity of contexts, both are characterized by technologies of self designed to create a new human type: the “flexible academic person”.
Gathered fields: A tale about rhizomes
Authors: Strathern Marilyn
Published: June 2024

A return to Deleuze and Guattari’s famous figure of the rhizome, this paper turns the philosophical idea around by asking what we might learn, from their openended exposition of it, about plants. The account at once reduces the rhizome to its cultivated varieties and enlarges the notion of a plant by the people joined to it. A stimulus comes from the recent World Heritage designation of a site in Mt Hagen, Papua New Guinea, for its evidence of the prehistoric cultivation of plants preferentially propagated by vegetative means. Following Haudricourt’s early exposition of the yam and the implications of cloning as a way of life (as well as a way of thought), the paper elaborates on what is indissolubly tied to the rhizome as a cultivated plant, people’s actions. Rhizomic plants are well described as multiplicities. Some questions are asked about the nature of diverse contrasts that are or are not implied. The burden of ethnographic demonstration is with the Papua New Guinean material; the provisional nature of the rest will be apparent.

“When a breach arises”: Good burocratic action and informal scrap metal collection in Northern Italy
Authors: Tauber Elisabeth
Published: June 2024

This paper analyses affirmative bureaucratic intervention into the informal commercial practices of scrap metal collection among the Sinti in a North-Italian province. To contextualize these events it is vital to examine institutional logics, and how they resonate with public officials’ sense of self as well as political loyalties. In everyday bureaucracy Gypsies are considered to be perplexing subjects, provoking contrasting images of poverty and excess. These cultural representations are the opposite of the idea of a decent social-work client. Hence, bureaucratic intervention on behalf of the Sinti put the former in a deontological and moral limbo, one which stimulates them to navigate the political and organisational structures of their organisations in a creative way. This paper aims to bring a positive example of where the social and institutional discrimination against Roma and Sinti in Italy and Europe can be broken. Even if it is not possible to reverse this discrimination, it at least introduces affirmative bureaucratic action as an enlightening direction for anthropological study.
