Description
Ellen Nerenberg's Murder Made in Italy explores how media coverage of three prominent murder cases reflects developments in Italian civil society over the past 20 years.
The author examines the cultural issues raised by these crimes, including perceptions of lawlessness and fear for public safety among the Italian population. She also looks at how these events are represented through various lenses, such as moral panic, media spectacle, true crime writing, and the abject body.
