Six-Month Report
Second Half of 2021
The report on the activities carried out and the results achieved by the Anti-Mafia Investigation Directorate in the second semester of 2021 was published. The report, which was submitted by the Minister of the Interior to the Italian Parliament, analyses mafia-style organised crime activities in the second half of 2021. The report, which is based on investigative, judicial, and preventive data, confirms, once again, that mafia-style organised crime groups are less and less inclined to commit striking acts of violence, preferring to infiltrate the economic and financial sectors. This trend corroborates the data already outlined in the previous reports, highlighting the strategic importance of attacking the assets that are illicitly gained by mafia-style organisations so to prevent their reuse and avoid their infiltration into the markets and the economic public order. This is an extremely important action-oriented strategy that has so far led to a sharp decrease in the criminal capacity of the mafia, avoiding effects that would otherwise be disastrous for the country.

Abstract
“I am Not Mafia”
A sentence becomes a chorus, a sentence becomes an image. Faces, voices, and colors in the world’s languages represent a universal message. “IO SONO NO MAFIA” (I AM NOT MAFIA) is an institutional advertisement that, in forty seconds, conveys the message of the Anti-Mafia Investigative Directorate through the younger generations. An ideal witness that the men and women of the DIA deliver to the boys and girls of the future generations as a sign of education towards legality and anti-mafia culture.

The Mafia is a human phenomenon and thus, like all human phenomena,
it has had a beginning and an evolution, and will also have an end”.
I only hope the death of the Mafia doesn’t come along with the final end of mankind.”
Giovanni Falcone.
