The author aims primarily at showing the importance of some archival sources - in-particular the papers of the Allied Control Commission - for the historical study of crime-in the working-class neighbourhoods of Milan in the yearts after Worl War II. The-essay highlights the existence of a peculiar triangular relationship between petty criminals,-police force and the population at large, and of a separation, though not a clear cut one, between the world of crime and law-abiding citizens. The traditional practices-of "social surgery" aimed at dividing productive classe from marginalised and asocial-elements seem to be at work at this juncture too, but the abnormal size of the ‘dangerous-classes cuts through class borders and even institutional spheres.-
Keywords: Milan, police, crime, neighborhoods, working classes, solidarity
