antimafia movement

The antimafia movement refers to efforts in Italy and other countries aimed at combatting organized crime associated with the Mafia and similar groups. This movement began gaining prominence in the late 20th century as citizens, activists, and law enforcement united to oppose the influence and violence of these criminal organizations. Key figures, such as judges, prosecutors, and journalists, have played crucial roles, often facing significant personal risks. The movement seeks to promote justice, transparency, and civic engagement while raising public awareness about the destructive effects of organized crime on society.
