2. Uncontrollable Bodies : Self-harm behaviour among male undocumented migrants detained in Southern Italian CPR
Magister-uppsats, Högskolan Dalarna/Institutionen för kultur och samhälleSammanfattning : In response to the recent surge in migrants entering Italy, the Italian government has implemented several laws since early 2023 to expand the administrative detention system for migrants - mostly males - pending repatriation, commonly known as Centri di Permanenza per il Rimpatr io (CPR).

3. Organized Crime and Government Trust under the Covid-19 pandemic. The case study of Sicily.
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Ekonomisk-historiska institutionenSammanfattning : Do municipalities in which organized crime is strongly established present lower Covid-19 vaccination rates, as a proxy for government trust? This paper aims to answer this question in the specific case of the Italian region of Sicily. Specifically, the analysis exploits a panel dataset of 390 Sicilian municipalities over 107 weeks (between the 27th of December 2020 and the 1st of January 2023) to study if areas with a higher presence of the Mafia, measured through historical sources and more recent data, negatively correlate with the cumulative weekly percentage of Covid-19 vaccinations per municipality.
