Abstract
This work presents a sociological study on the processes of stigmatization in the urban context of Rome. At the centre of our work is the observation of the geography of marginality, carried out from two profoundly different viewpoints: people experiencing homelessness and individuals affected by psychiatric distress. The two different angles will help us analyze both the destructive movement of the production of stigma and the configuration of spaces of subtraction, defence or opposition to it. The article focuses on understanding these social figures, who are often viewed through the lens of others and are seen as incapable of acting autonomously. Their perspectives are rarely considered, and they are often viewed as subjects to be intervened upon.
