On Wednesday 16th of November from 16.00  to 17.30 the Aula Magna of the University of Sassari hosted the "Quanto pesa il mercato delle droghe sullo sviluppo della Sardegna" (What is the impact of the drugs market on the development of Sardinia?) seminar.

On Wednesday 10th of November from 10.00 to 13.30 the Aula Magna of the University of Sassari hosted the “Il ruolo delle sociologie nella comprensione del mutamento sociale. Il caso delle reti criminali” seminar.

The initiative is organised by the sociologists of the History, Human Sciences and Education Department of the University of Sassari as part of the fourth edition of the “Settimana della Sociologia” project, promoted by the Italian Conference of the Sociology Departments (Conferenza Italiana dei Dipartimenti di Area Sociologica, CIDAS), with the dual goal of highlighting the ability of Sociology to understand the ongoing social changes and encouraging opportunities for discussion with the institutions and the social actors present in the territory. 

Following the recent topics discussed in the Droghe e organizzazioni criminali in Sardegna. Letture sociologiche ed economiche (Drugs and criminal organisations in Sardinia. Sociological and economic readings), FrancoAngeli, the seminar focused on the socio-territorial transformations currently affecting crime in Sardinia from a social reflection point of view. In particular, the seminar analysed the phenomenon of the island criminal networks through the qualitative and quantitative analyses carried out by the research team of the Social Observatory on the Development and Crime in Sardinia (OSCRIM). 

After the speech of the Magnifico Rettore of the University of Sassari Gavino Mariotti and the President of the Fondazione di Sardegna Antonello Cabras, the seminar was coordinated by the journalist and sociologist Giacomo Mameli and was also attended by Carlo Colloca from the University of Catania, Romina Deriu, Manuela Pulina, Domenica Dettori, Daniele Pulino, Sara Spanu, Camillo Tidore, Giampiero Branca from the University of Sassari, the Deputy Public Prosecutor of Cagliari Gilberto Ganassi, Mauro Mura, already Public Prosecutor of Cagliari, and the OSCRIM scientific coordinator, Antonietta Mazzette, who presented the works and final considerations.

Here’s a moment of consideration and debate following the presentation of the intermediate results of the three-year research project funded by the Fondazione Sardegna on the “Sistema informativo e governance delle politiche di intervento e contrasto dei fenomeni criminali” study (L.R. 07/2007). The research project aims to expand the knowledge on changes in crime trends in Sardinia through new methodological approaches which highlight the actual existence of links between those social phenomena typical of different territorial realities and violent crime trends.

This results in the creation of a georeferenced integrated information system based on socio-territorial statistical data and on crime trends, in order to guarantee a constant monitoring of each and every situation supporting the operators involved on every level in the programming and the definition of prevention and contrast innovative policies of criminal phenomena. 

Following the initial speeches of Antonietta Mazzette, coordinator of the research project, and Professor Camillo Tidore, the presentation went on with the participation of Daniele Pulino and Sara Spanu, research fellows, presenting the intermediate results, Luca Pulina, the Computer Engineering researcher of the Department. The event will also be attended by the sociologists Mario Boffi and Matteo Colleoni from the University of Milano-Bicocca, the Sassari Public Prosecutor Gianni Caria, the Police Commissioner of Cagliari Filippo Dispenza, the Police Commissioner of Sassari Pasquale Errico, the journalist Giacomo Mameli, the jurist Giovanni Meloni, and finally Roberto Segatori, sociologist of the University of Perugia.
