The observation of some recent cases concerning the victims of the so
called "enterprises crimes" - such as the ThyssenKrupp and the Eternit
ones in Turin, or the one occurred at ILVA establishment in Taranto - gives
the opportunity to formulate some wider remarks in order the necessity to
adopt a clear sociological point of view looking at origins and consequences
of victimization processes. It means to promote a sociological attention for
all those factors at the ground of victimization that roots in society, making
not only some social actors more fragile to different forms of crimes and
iniquity but also much more difficult to be recognized by social context
and institutions in their condition. Nowadays we need a sociology "for"
the victims, it means able to put concrete attention to their suffering and to
promote effective actions to respond to their violated rights and needs in all
contexts.
