Circumventing deadlock through venue-shopping: Why there is more than just talk in US immigration politics in times of economic crisis

2016

This article addresses the question of how the financial and economic crisis that hit the US in the late 2000s impacted immigration policies. We find that the crisis has not significantly changed dynamics. Instead, it has highlighted and aggravated persisting trends. Drawing on Kingdon’s multiple streams model and combining it with the notion of two-level games, we find that while the policy stream and the problem stream would call for both restrictive and liberalising changes, the political stream impedes change: The fact that Congress has been divided for a long time over Comprehensive Immigration Reform (CIR) impedes any restrictive or liberalising changes. With problems resulting from c…

A survey on planning, expectations and factors influencing the stabilization process of migrating people in Palermo, Western Sicily

2010

Background. Europe constitutes a major pole of attraction for the migratory fluxes. The migrating population is made up of many different individuals, carrying different projects of life and expectations. The consistence of the phenomena, in few decades, will be responsible for deep changes in the demographic structure of the European population. The purpose of this investigation was to attempt to draw an identikit of migrating people and to evaluate those factors which may be considered important to positively influence the process of stabilization. Moreover, the research tried to evaluate the differences among those migrating people who have recently arrived, still considering this countr…

Giuseppina Terranova and Other Gruesome Stories: Cases of Female Italian-American murderers in the press from the 1890s to the 1910s

2019

Immigrant women during the period of mass migration received little public attention. However, when some of them became protagonists in sensational murder cases, they burst into the public sphere. Analyzing the representation of Josephine Terranova and other female Italian-American murderers in both the yellow press and the Italian-American press shows how some of these invisible women were able to assert themselves in the public sphere and achieve a degree of agency despite their tragic circumstances. These women, represented as degenerate and genetically inferior in the early coverage of their cases and trials, were, over time, essentially rehabilitated in the press as “proper” American s…

Immigration, decision making and teenagers. An exploratory research in Palermo.

2017

For immigrant teenagers, especially newcomers, inclusion in school represents an additional challenge to the already complex transition from childhood to adolescence. The article proposes an exploratory research piloted in Palermo in 2016/2017 on a sample of 200 immigrant teenagers from non-European countries who are already included in the Italian school system. The aim of the research is to describe and to identify four areas: linguistic, communicative and relational difficulties, the role of training in immigrant country, reflections on their school path, decision making.

Immigrati e diritti sociali: parità di trattamento e tutela multilivello

2017

Il saggio analizza la tutela antidiscriminatoria di cui godono i lavoratori immigrati all'insegna di una prospettiva multilivello: più in particolare viene descritto il complesso di strumenti normativi del diritto nazionale ed europeo a tutela delle situazioni giuridiche soggettive degli immigrati (ad es., in materia di sicurezza sociale), per come interpretato dalla Corte Costituzionale, dalla Corte di Giustizia e dalla Corte EDU. Da ultimo, vengono analizzati i recenti orientamenti giurisprudenziali, che oscillano tra l'affievolimento del principio paritario in ragione di sempre più stringenti vincoli di bilancio, e la tendenziale parificazione tra cives e non cives alla luce del principi…

Transmigración del canino inferior incluido: Presentación de un caso y revisión de la literatura

2006

La retención, es decir, la no erupción de un diente permanente más allá de un año después de la edad normal de erupción, es relativamente poco frecuente si exceptuamos el caso de los terceros molares y los caninos superiores. La transmigración se define como el fenómeno en el cual un diente incluido no erupcionado traspasa en más de la mitad de su longitud la línea media. Exponemos el caso clínico de una paciente de 20 años de edad, que presentaba la transmigración del canino inferior izquierdo, con un patrón de migración tipo 4 de Mupparapu. De igual forma, realizamos una revisión bibliográfica de los casos publicados de transmigración, actualizando los principales aspectos de esta patolog…

Familias transnacionales, familias inmigrantes: reflexiones sobre su inclusión en la escuela
