This seminar series will explore the relationship between Italian and Colombian Mafia from a cultural studies perspective. It aims to enhance awareness about the violence perpetuated by criminal organisations into the nineties in both societies. Through an exploration of the construction of collective memory and the reaction of new generations, the series will explore the role of literature and media in encouraging awareness and/or glamorising organised criminality. In addition to a series of seminars, this series will include an exhibition by Univeristy of Leeds researcher, Eva Frapiccini.
