Publishing

Vaneigem. In the book, just released, "Né vendetta né perdono (Giustizia moderna e crimini contro l'umanità)" - neither vengeance nor pardon (modern justice and crimes against humanity) (Eleuthera, pp. 120, € 12.00) Vaneigem shows how during the twentieth century there is an attempt to give a definition of "crimes against humanity" and to determine the appropriate penalties. Through this reflection, the author highlights the nature and modalities of the judiciary. The result is a clear vibrant pro-life and against neoliberalism, which demonstrates the inanity of modern justice. A justice that, at best, "succeeds only to limit the excesses of an inhuman system" and that behind the rhetoric of rehabilitation of the offender, thinks only to pay exemplary punishments dictated by the logic of the market and the will to power. The book comes out in Italy in a time when the debate on justice is particularly intense and is located in an unorthodox position with respect to the views of politicians, judges and experts. Raoul Vaneigem, philosopher, writer and journalist, was with Guy Debord, one of the best known members of the International Situationist in the sixties. Author of numerous books and pamphlets, in Italy is especially known for its treatment of etiquette for use by younger generations, republished several times and went down in history as the "most stolen book of '68."
