Introduction: Mediterranean Movements and the Reconfiguration of the Military-Humanitarian Border in 2015
2018
This article deals with the transformations occurred in the government of refugees in the Mediterranean since 2013, when the military-humanitarian operation Mare Nostrum was launched by the European Union. The paper analyses how military and humanitarian practices are entangled in governing refugees and develops the notion of military-humanitarianism. The Mediterranean borderzone has undergone radical reconfigurations over the last few years. Particularly, new technologies of control for strengthening the role of the Mediterranean Sea as a pre-frontier of Europe have been put in place. The production and the declaration of a "refugee crisis" in Europe has contributed to producing important …
Il Mare di mezzo: storie di naviganti, di lotta per il diritto e di luci nel buio della frontiera
2022
This paper analyses the way in which, and the reasons why, the Mediterranean Sea, from being a limes between lands, has become the frontier we know today: the space of an emblematic struggle for law and rights, which contrasts the policies of governments with the forced movements of people in migration and with civil society organizations that try to promote and protect fundamental rights. In this context, the direct experience of some search and rescue missions in the Mediterranean Sea has been used to highlight the extent of this conflict with respect to the violation of the national and domestic legal frameworks carried out by the European states, Italy in the lead, also through the invo…
The Slave Coasts. Transnational Sexual Exploitation from Nigeria to Italy. From human trafficking to human rights
2019
This research intends to open a global debate on the current strong link between migration and prostitution on the basis of the reality observed in Palermo in the timespan 2015-2017. The main three elements emerging from the analysis are criminality, poverty and exploitation. As data suggests, Italy is the favorite destination of the Nigerian sexual exploitation market. In particular, Sicily plays a major role in the sexual exploitation ring involving Nigerian migrants, besides headquartering the Italian as well the Nigerian mafia. The agreement between Cosa Nostra (Sicilian Mafia) and the two organizations known as Black Axe and Eye (Nigerian mafia) represents the starting point for sexual…
La tutela della vulnerabilità in ambito giuridico. Rilevanza del concetto nel contesto della tratta e del traffico di persone migranti
2022
The legal system started to use the word “vulnerability” to provide protection in cases of abuse or need. Understanding the double face of vulnerability, as both universal and individual, may lead us to overcome the traditional liberal paradigm and its idea of indi-viduals independent and autonomous, and finally embrace an idea of legal subject based on his inherent vulnerability. The differences between these paradigms are evident in the fields of migration and human trafficking. This paper proposes to rethink the approach to migration starting from vulnerability.
Music Migrations from the Bohemian Lands to Trieste and the National Awakening of the Southern Slavs
2017
After obtaining the status of free port under the Austrian administration (1719), Trieste was transformed into a rich cosmopolitan town of the Adriatic sea, in which conveyed German and Slavic peoples, and then some groups from the Mediterranean countries. Among them, the Czechs played a key role in spreading the classical style at the end of the eighteenth century, as testified by the individual migration of composers to the nearby cities of Gorizia and Ljubljana (František Josef Dusík, Vaclav Vratny, Jan Kejha, Johannes Schreiber). Equally important, in the second part of the nineteenth century, was the creation of the modern violin school thanks to the contribution of Friedrich Pixis’s p…

L’Italiano e l’alfabeto per i nuovi arrivati
2017
In recent years, thousands of refugees and asylum seekers have arrived at the port of Palermo, including a large number of teenagers without any adult caregivers. They are called Unaccompanied Minors. A significant part of them remain in the city and are placed in Italian language courses of the University of Palermo, (ItaStra), within a large inclusion project. The focus of this paper will be address to describe this new profile of learner: they are minors, 15 to 17 years old, without much formal education or training, without competent skills in reading or writing, but with a vast life experience in a multilingual environment and exposure to learning a diversity of new languages.

La trasmissione delle lingue nello spazio domestico. Uno studio in famiglie italo-brasiliane residenti a San Paolo del Brasile
2021
This paper aims to provide a snapshot of different ways of experiencing the linguistic repertoire (Brazilian Portuguese - Italian) within the intrafamily domain, by mixed families residing in São Paulo, Brazil. In light of the theoretical perspective defined as “linguistics of migration”, together with an investigation methodology that is based on the comparison between declarations and linguistic self-perceptions, obtained through autobiographies and productions, it was possible to assess different types of language transmission practices in a migratory context and to determine the degree of awareness that the first generation develops in order to maintain its linguistic repertoire.
