In the paper Bullying and strategies for confronting the phenomenon in Italian schools, Ignazia
Bartholini starts with a review of literature about bullying, published since the 1970s to date.
On the bases of the outcomes of some studies previously conducted, she aims to explain how the
phenomenon of bullying has accompanied the raising of the period of mandatory school. Through
the research of eminent scholars, she argues that the crisis of values and the loss of perspective for
the future of teenagers increase the possibility of violent relationships among peers in school, where
they spend much of their time. An interpretative model on bullying is therefore highlighted, using
the "dramaturgic metaphor" of Goffman and focusing the role of viewer/witness (often the same
classmates) in breaking the violent triangle where the perpetrator and victim are similarly victims
of the same cruel play. Finally she describes the strategies devised by the Ministry of Education
which are c...urrently applied in schools in the Italian peninsula from the perspective of preventive
and rehabilitative education, on potential protagonists ‒ victim and bully ‒ on spectators viewers
‒ on all those adolescents who just look at the "violent drama" for fun or for weakness, without
interrupting it and preventing a recurrence. In the light of empirical evidences, it is suggested that
such programs accompanied by informal practices should be encouraged. The author suggests that
after Italy another of the European nations that has invested very much in terms of support for
inclusion and prevention for confronting the problem of bullying at school can be considered.
