Italian prisons. Western Sahara. Tourist trap.
Welcome to the il manifesto global newsletter, an essential weekly briefing of progressive news delivered to you each week.
A new look for global
After recently launching a redesigned website for il manifesto, we focused on improving the il manifesto global website and newsletter to give you a better experience when you read our reporting and analysis. Since 1969, il manifesto has challenged the status quo. We're proud to bring this mission to English-speaking supporters.
We'll share more updates about our redesign after our annual August holiday. In the meantime, enjoy a recent selection of our work. Thank you for reading.

Analysis

Analysis
Alex GiuzioUnlike other countries – first and foremost Spain – Italy stands out for its lack of large-scale demonstrations as well as a lack of local and national measures.
Reportage
Marco SantopadreSpaniards across the country are protesting against the uncontrolled influx of tourists that has caused a collapse in quality of life, a jump in housing prices and a rise in the cost of basic necessities.
Analysis
Chiara CruciatiThere was no comment whatsoever from the European Union and the United States on the extremely serious accusation brought by the ICJ: that the Israeli occupation of the West Bank, Gaza and East Jerusalem is illegal, is a de facto annexation and is an apartheid regime.
