Market Values and Socioeconomic Mixité in Palermo. The Role of Migrants in the Commercial Real Estate Market
2022
Socioeconomic and functional mixité has been an objective placed at the basis of urban development to guide the transformation processes of urban areas, associating it with social inclusion as opposed to the morphological and spatial segregation, often caused by monofunctional zoning. The implementation of social mixité involves all social groups and, particularly, migrant communities that, in turn, are formed by groups with different cultures, nationalities, resources and income levels. The location choices of migrants and native residents produce an ever-changing urban geography of residential, commercial and service activities that directly impact on the real estate market.

A Chain of Words as an Introduction: Human Dignity, Language, Identity, Citizenship, Values, Human Capital and Urban Spaces

To analyze the issue of cities-migrants interactions, as well as social-monetary values interactions, it is necessary to place it in a “higher” context, in order not to risk losing the necessary connection with universal ethical principles, and in a “broader” one, in which understanding complexity on a global scale interprets local conditions.

Nuevas perspectivas de análisis para entender la migración cualificada del sur de Europa hacia México

This article focuses on skilled migration flows from Southern Europe into Mexico.

The aporia of the European myth. How LGBTI+ migrants are stranded in the Italian reception system
2021
Considerando l’aumento di migranti e la tipologia di accoglienza orientata ad un approccio assistenziale standardizzato e omogeneo, il presente articolo indaga gli effetti della preponderanza di un sistema di prima accoglienza, nell’identificazione ed assistenza ai richiedenti asilo SOGI (sexual orientation and gender identity). La risposta tempestiva di un apparato di accoglienza basato su un approccio di sopravvivenza a breve termine, tende a ignorare le particolari esigenze dei richiedenti asilo SOGI, e di sottovalutare il rischio di violenza dentro dei centri dalla parte degli altri ospiti. Quindi, questo saggio intende riflettere se, i migranti SOGI sono una categoria vulnerabile per s…
