L’oppressione, anche quando non si vede, ha effetti reali. Comprendere e intervenire sulle microaggressioni tra “dato-per-scontato”, violenza epistemica e riflessione socio-criminologica
No full textThe chapter analyzes the concept of microaggression by detaching it from its psychological origins and instead linking it to the dimensions of privilege. In doing so, the chapter focuses on the power of the “unmarked,” arguing that understanding microaggressions requires entering the (in)visible regimes of what is taken for granted. Unmarked categories lie in the background of social interactions and take on a hegemonic character, shaping the way we understand and reproduce the social world. Cognitive and cultural attention is directed toward what is marked (the figure), while the unmarked (the background) is equated with obviousness and normality. This naturalization of standards contributes to normalizing and rendering hegemonic identities invisible.
In contrast, marked categories are perceived as more homogeneous and are often associated with abnormality, deviance, and lower social value. The essay highlights how microaggressions function as an invisible tool for regulating the power of unmarked systems of domination (whiteness, ableism, hetero-cis-sexism). Their characteristics—invisibility, apparent insignificance due to their everyday and cumulative nature, contexts of unawareness, normalization, and ambiguity—make them effective in maintaining systems of privilege and oppression.
In other words, "normality"—which corresponds to unmarked categories—controls difference through various mechanisms.
This essay also develops a critique of traditional studies on microaggressions, which are often overly focused on the behavior and unconscious motivations of the social actor. Instead, it proposes an alternative harm-based approach—one that shifts the emphasis from the act and the actor to the real impact and the different forms of harm (epistemic, emotional, existential).
The conclusions of this reasoning are particularly compelling, as the authors note that analyzing harm helps to understand how an “invisible” dimension can produce not only individual suffering but, more importantly, widespread and collective social harm. For this reason, analyzing microaggressions through a harm-based approach provides a critical lens to understand and challenge structural social inequalities
Maschilità “sacrificate”, maschilità “esibite” e maschilità “revansciste” nel sex work di strada
No full textThis article, focusing on ethnographic data on male street sex work collected by
the author between 2011 and 2018, aims to highlight the meanings attributed to
sexual-economic exchange and outline the hierarchical relations that are defined by
the hegemonic construction of gender and sexuality but also, inevitably, by the
payment of a wage following a performance with the aim of identifying the ways
through which situational and negotiated models of masculinity are constructed.
The analysis proves that male reputation must be constantly preserved and since it
determines a sort unearned advantage, it is constantly monitored and “valued” by
both sex workers and “clients”, as it is under perennial threat in contexts where gay "polluting" identities appear
La costruzione sociale dei suicidi
No full textIl saggio presenta le principali prospettive di ricerca costruzioniste sul tema del suicidio. Le sociologie costruzioniste – e, in particolare, interazionismo simbolico, etnometodologia, fenomenologia – hanno operato la resa dei conti con gli approcci positivisti.
I saggi analizzati offrono una summa di grande interesse dei modi originali con cui le sociologie costruzioniste hanno re-immaginato lo studio dei suicidi andando oltre la rigidità dello schema “cause e cure” degli approcci positivisti ed arricchendo di sfumature la nostra
comprensione del fenomeno. Di fronte a un panorama sociologico per cui lo studio del suicidio è ancora sinonimo di analisi durkheimiana e di dati statistici, i testi offerti in traduzione italiana illustrano l’inventiva metodologica e interpretativa delle sociologie costruzioniste e la loro capacità di illuminare aspetti inediti, tra tutti la natura socialmente costruita dei suicidi e la capacità individuale di proiettare significati oltre la morte.The essay presents the main constructionist research perspectives on the subject of suicide. Constructionist sociologies - and, in particular, symbolic interactionism, ethnomethodology, phenomenology - have brought about the reckoning with positivist approaches.
The essays analyzed offer a very interesting summa of the original ways in which constructionist sociologies have re-imagined the study of suicides by going beyond the rigidity of the "causes and cures" scheme of positivist approaches and enriching our
understanding of the phenomenon. Faced with a sociological panorama for which the study of suicide is still synonymous with Durkheimian analysis and statistical data, the texts offered in Italian translation illustrate the methodological and interpretative inventiveness of constructionist sociologies and their ability to illuminate unprecedented aspects, among all the socially constructed nature of suicides and the individual's ability to project meaning beyond death
