The book 'The Crime of Being Poor: A Neoliberal Management of Marginality' by Albert Sales i Campos, published by Icaria Editorial in 2014, addresses how poverty affects sectors of the population that were previously believed to be safe from economic hardship. It analyzes the precariousness and deterioration of the living conditions of the most vulnerable due to the disappearance of institutional support networks. The author argues that a new model of marginality management is being built, justified by the economic crisis, which replaces public aid with private philanthropy, imposes suspicions of fraud on benefit recipients, and uses the penal system to subdue the marginalized.
