Paolo Grassi is assistant professor in the "R. Massa" Department of Human Sciences for Education at the University of Milano Bicocca.

"It is not easy to try to interpret violence in the city and violence of the city from the ethnographic gaze. It requires, I would say, an epistemological humility, the recognition of the different scales at play and of the distinct knowledge operations commensurate with them, the awareness of the incompleteness and partiality of the anthropological research gesture. This is Paolo Grassi's modus operandi. This book illustrates in an exemplary manner and for the first time, how the spatiality of the Milanese barrio San Siro in all its forms is by no means an innocent spatiality, and how visible degradation and selective abandonment attest, against the appearance of physical boundaries and stigmatizing media, that the city of the rich and the city of the poor are not independent variables."
