(Adnkronos) - “Fortunatamente oggi c'è molta più sensibilizzazione nelle democrazie occidentali rispetto all'antica Grecia e sono contento che ci siano queste mattinate in cui si sensibilizza verso la violenza di genere e si facciano delle azioni concrete per prevenirla, sia da parte delle donne, aiutandole, ma anche e soprattutto da parte degli uomini, sensibilizzando verso questa tematica molto importante”. Lo pensa Antonio Sibilia, vincitore premio di laurea “Sofia Castelli”, università Milano - Bicocca, rispondendo ai microfoni di Adnkronos, a margine dell’incontro, promosso dall’Università degli Studi di Milano-Bicocca, intitolato ‘Gli strappi della violenza: riflessioni e azioni’, in occasione della Giornata internazionale per l'eliminazione della violenza contro le donne.

00:00I am a former student of the Master's Degree in Social Processes Analysis at the Department of Sociology and Social Research of the University of Milan-Ubicocca.
00:14I received this prestigious award in honor of Sofia Castelli, thanks to the Master's thesis that I did, having as lecturer Professor Marina Calloni and as co-lecturer Dr. Danila Belliti.
00:29My thesis was developed around the tragedy of Eschia or the Supplices.
00:34This is the story of these women who run away from their cousins, who want to marry them against their will, and flee to Argo, this Greek city that welcomes them.
00:45After a decision, a council, a council assembly, thanks to democracy, they are welcomed and thus escape from this gender violence that their cousins are suffering.
00:57And so the thesis develops to this day, also analyzing all the legal sensitization that has been made in the field of gender violence, especially against forced marriage.
01:09Fortunately, today there is much more sensitization in Western democracies than in Ancient Greece,
01:15so I am happy that there are these mornings in which gender violence is sensitized and concrete actions are taken to prevent it,
01:28both on the part of women, helping them, but also and above all on the part of men, sensitizing them to this very important issue.
