  • COMO, ITALY - 25 October 2013: A cash dog of Italy's Guardia di Finanza (Financial Police) searches for undeclared cash in the car of a man suspected of smuggling money across the border with Swizerland in Como, Italy, at the border with Chiasso (Switzerland) on October 25th 2013. Cash dogs are sniffer dogs that have specially trained to detect the ink on currency notes.

  • AFFILE, ITALY - 23 AUGUST 2012: A wreath was left on the tomb of fascist Marshall Rodolfo Graziani for the opening ceremony of the mausoleum dedicated to him in Affile, a town with a population of 1,600 80km east of Rome, on August 23, 2012. A mausoleum and park, dedicated to the memory of Fascist Field Marshall Rodolfo Graziani, has recently been opened in the Italian town of Affile. At a cost of €127,000 to local taxpayers, the mayor Ercole Viri has expressed hope that the site will become as ‘famous and as popular as Predappio’ – the burial place of Mussolini which has become a shrine to neo-Fascists. Rodolfo Graziani was the youngest colonel in the Regio Esercito (Royal Italian Army), known as the "Butcher of Fezzan" and the "Butcher of Ethiopia" for the brutal military campaigns and gas attacks he led in Libya and Ethiopia under the dictatorship of Benito Mussolini under which he then became Minister of Defence from 1943 to 1945.

  • AFFILE, ITALY - 23 AUGUST 2012: (L/R) Aldo Graziani (78), Giandomenico Abbafatt (43) and ex-mayor of Affile Diego Moriconi, 61, discuss about the collaboration with Nazis in World War II, in Affile, a town with a population of 1,600 80km east of Rome, on August 23, 2012. A mausoleum and park, dedicated to the memory of Fascist Field Marshall Rodolfo Graziani, has recently been opened in the Italian town of Affile. At a cost of €127,000 to local taxpayers, the mayor Ercole Viri has expressed hope that the site will become as ‘famous and as popular as Predappio’ – the burial place of Mussolini which has become a shrine to neo-Fascists. Rodolfo Graziani was the youngest colonel in the Regio Esercito (Royal Italian Army), known as the "Butcher of Fezzan" and the "Butcher of Ethiopia" for the brutal military campaigns and gas attacks he led in Libya and Ethiopia under the dictatorship of Benito Mussolini under which he then became Minister of Defence from 1943 to 1945.

  • SALERNO, ITALY - 11 MAY 2020: Carmine Esposito (52), a parking attendant out of work and relying on the food handouts from the  charity "L'Abbraccio" (Italian for The Hug) , poses for a portrait at the charity headquarters in Salerno, Italy, on May 11th 2020. <br />
<br />
Carmine Esposito worked as a parking attendant in central Salerno. Many of his clients were foreign tourists, who used to stop in Salerno before driving to the nearby Amalfi Coast. He hasn’t made any money in more than two months and is now struggling to pay his €600 monthly rent. He relies on food handouts from L’Abbraccio. Although he worked full time, he was on a part time contract, a way for his employers to skimp on social-security payments. As a result, when his furlough benefits eventually come through, he expects to receive €500, far less than the €1,300 a month he used to make. “It is a serious problem. I need the money immediately,” said Mr. Esposito, who regularly sends money to his 25- year-old son, a college student. He is looking for new jobs, but the prospects are slim. “It was a struggle before. Just imagine what it’s like now,” he said.<br />
<br />
L'Abbraccio is  a charity which has focused on assisting the newly poor since the 2008 financial crisis.<br />
<br />
In less than two months, the number of families who have turned to L’Abbraccio to feed themselves has jumped from 160 families to over 500.<br />
<br />
“They are not people who live in extreme poverty, but people who have found themselves poor because of the economic crisis,” says the heady of the charity Matteo Marzana.  They include swathes of the population employed off the books and thus largely excluded from the state’s welfare safety net.<br />
