Issue 348 is the second with an increased number of pages. Two subjects on the cover: one highlighting the 12-page selection of works by Pierre-Joseph Proudhon, the other a fake cigarette packet (the “security pack”) with the health warning: “draft bill 733 damages you and those around you”. This is a reference to articles, accompanied by an extensive photo reportage, by Maria Matteo, by Simone Bisacca and by Gaia Raimondi on the government’s new security package which involves the detention of “illegals” in CIEs, Centres of Identification and Expulsion.
