Resistances Non-Violentes (French Edition)

The story, narrated by his brother, of one of the most iconic figure of the anti-mafia struggle, Peppino Impastato, who revolted against the patriarchal structure of his family, went against his father who belonged to the Sicilian mafia organisation and ignited an anti-mafia culture and actions at the cost of his own life. In this work, Sanfilippo provides a definition of nonviolence and elaborates on the Gandhian vision of the world.

This article briefly narrates the life of Giuseppe aka, Peppino Impastato, who initiated a cultural and political change that then gave rise to the anti-mafia movement from the 60s onwards. In fact, he belonged to a family where his father was affiliated to the Mafia criminal organisation, and had his uncle murdered by them.

This long article highlights the three different periods of time that defined the anti-mafia movement, namely from until s; s and s; and from s up to now. The analysis provides an initial understanding of the typology and tools of the anti-mafia struggle in each of these phases, alongside the ethical and cultural factors that supported it. The article also elucidates the social, economic and cultural composition of the mafia organisation as well as the anti-mafia movement and touches upon its development as a national movement, rather than configuring it as an issue concerning solely the island of Sicily.

Finally, it depicts the peculiar characteristics of the anti-mafia movement and what differentiates it from social movements as traditionally considered, by contextualising the analysis within power relationships in Italy. This long article touches on the development of the anti-mafia movement and distinguishes within it civic anti-mafia and social anti-mafia.

It also establishes a conceptual distinction between the anti-mafia movement and social movements as traditionally considered, and stresses the peculiar nature of the first as being pro-system and anti-system, simultaneously. Finally, it highlights the weak points that undermine the continuity and cohesiveness of the anti-mafia movements. Santino analyses the Mafia organisation and social consensus. He sees in the latter a supportive element to mafia organisations as well as the ground on which it is possible to build forms of nonviolent education and practices that could lead to a change within the current system.

In so doing, he discusses what action civil society can undertake to sustain nonviolent forms of resistance against mafia. This work narrates the anti-mafia movement that started in Sicily at the end of the 19th century and extended to the entire Italian peninsula in more recent years. Santino recounts the origin of the Sicilian mafia organisation, the reactions to it by Italian institutions, and the socio-cultural context by drawing from different authors and first-hand interviews.

As an expert on mafia organisations, Umberto Santino elucidates the nature and structure of the Sicilian mafia phenomenon as well as the building of the anti-mafia movement and related campaigning by civil society representatives and social organisations in Sicily.
