New migration processes and new frontiers for linguistic research
2021
Recent migrations show unprecedented characteristics in terms of migratory routes, individual profiles of migrants and condition of isolation in arrival contexts. Combining sociolinguistic and linguistic perspectives, the article reconstructs the forms of linguistic contact between local and migrant populations in one of the main gateways to Europe, Palermo (Italy), and the specific conditions of local language acquisition by newcomers. It is argued that notions of (im)mobility and segregation must be included in migration-centred linguistic research
La vita sospesa nella zona grigia, la perdurante temporaneità dei campi profughi e la sopravvivenza culturale del popolo saharawi
2021
Because of containment policies, migrants between departure and destination encounter barriers and gray zones. They remain trapped in these places, where the asymmetry of power is exercised by force. Such places are tolerated as they are functional to the capitalist system. Planned refugee camps are part of this system; they are conceived as temporary devices to save human lives but are organized externally and self-organization is prevented. Can our discipline re-appropriate these issues often delegated to political and functionalist choices and provide effective answers? In the global landscape of migration, the experience of the Sahrawi can be a model of self-management and participation.

Il lavoro sociale nei servizi dell’accoglienza a rifugiati e richiedenti asilo in Italia
2022
Mediante una rassegna sintetica di studi e ricerche, il capitolo propone spunti per l’analisi di un particolare aspetto del sistema italiano di prima e seconda accoglienza di rifugiati e richiedenti asilo: gli operatori e le operatrici dei servizi. Gli studi sulla violenza di prossimità subita da migranti, principalmente di genere femminile, in transito nei centri per rifugiati e richiedenti asilo e sulla presa in carico da parte dei servizi sociosanitari segnalano criticità: alcune di esse concernono aspetti strutturali del sistema di accoglienza (normativa di riferimento), altre ineriscono ai criteri discrezionali propri dei centri. La carenza sia di figure competenti sia di uniformità e …
Migrants at the university doorstep : How we unfairly deny access and what we could (should) do now
2022
The Finnish Government recently launched policies to meet labor shortage challenges, recruit highly skilled international workers. However, they overlook a skilled population already living in Finland, namely highly educated migrants. The problem is that migrants tend to be treated similarly, whether they are well-educated or not. This means that migrants are typically directed into low paying jobs. How is it possible to better develop this group with more effective career guidance? We believe an important answer lies in improved university education for migrants. This investigation is based on responses from surveys, interviews, and project evaluations. An analysis is made of three success…
Beware of the “poverty migrant”: media discourses on EU labour migration and the welfare state in Germany and the UK
2021
Abstract This article examines the role of the media in the EU freedom of movement debate through the lens of high-circulation German and UK newspapers during the first half of 2014. It explores how the media problematised migration from Eastern European member states and its influence on national host country labour markets and welfare systems. It also analyses how different media outlets positioned themselves in relation to relevant policies or policy proposals. The findings show that most articles in our sample present low-skill, low-wage working European Union (EU) migrant class referred to as “poverty migrants” as a problem to be addressed at the policy level in contrast with the econo…
