Noi contro tutti: la solidariet\ue0 aggressiva nella web communitas No Lombroso

Abstract

In November 2009 the renewed display of the Museum \u201cCesare Lombroso\u201d opened to visitors in Turin. A \u201cNo Lombroso\u201d cartel of Neo-bourbon and other Southern political associations moved to protest against the Museum. They went to demand the repatriation of the brigand\u2019s Villella skull for burial in his birthplace Motta Santa Lucia (CZ). In September 2012, I entered the No Lombroso Facebook group to conduct my online participant observation. The involvement in the day-to-day Facebook interactions highlights the performative construction of the aggressive solidarity into the web communitas
