The aim of the course is to provide an advanced and critical understanding of the role of victims of crime as well as the evolution of the concept in contemporary societies, with regards to the main theoretical approaches in the discipline. At the end of the course students will be able to analytically interpret this peculiar condition in the frame of multiple interactions among national and supra national Institution, the judiciary and legal system and socio-political networks, paying special attention to the role played by media (and new media) in the social representation of victims’ rights and needs in the global era.
