Esclusione, parola, silenzio: Mariella Mehr
2019
The essay aims to present the poetic and narrative work of Mariella Mehr, an extraordinary witness of our time and one of the most significant poetic voices of contemporary German language literature. If the density of poetic language and the thematic choice bring Mehr clos- er to the very high examples of Celan, Sachs, Levi, the peculiar quality of writing, its rough perfection and the fiery temperature of the imagination make it unique in the prose of our time.

DOBLE PRESENCIA O DOBLE RACISMO? INCLUSIÓN Y EXCLUSIÓN DE LOS JÓVENES DE SEGUNDA GENERACIÓN EN ITALIA
2021
The second generations (2G) do not have a static and homogeneous ethnic identity, but multiple and transnational identities. The lack of recognition as citizens and their perceived discrimination and feelings of exclusion often can have backwash on the process of reconstruction of identity and creation of hybrid identity as a synthesis between identity and difference. From the analysis of the interviews with 2G young people, collected in 7 cities in Italy, emerges the constant attempt to assert themselves through the transformation of “double absence” into “double presence” and of their invisibility in visibility. Our paper deals with the different ways of this transition comparing the inte…
Liminality and (Trans)Nationalism in the Rethinking of the African Canadian Subjectivity: Esi Edugyan’s The Second Life of Samuel Tyne
2015
Drawing on the concepts of liminality proposed by Arnold Van Gennep and Victor Turner and Althusser's three ideological tools that nationalism prescribe to be undertaken by individuals who try to become an integral part of a national community, this paper reads Esi Edugyan’s debut novel, The Second Life of Samuel Tyne (2004), as an exploration of the role of literature within the debate about the different positions of black Canadian subjectivity and national adherence. George Elliott Clarke and Rinaldo Walcott polarized the African Canadian criticism by proposing two different theories in an attempt to shape up and (re)define the subjectivity of black Canadians. Clarke advocates to include…
"Saagat tuntevat Suomen kuninkaat" - pseudohistoriallisesta kirjoittelusta Suomen muinaisuudesta
2017
Suomalaiset ovat tutkitusti kiinnostuneita historiasta ja etsivät tietoa menneisyyden tapahtumista internetistä. Erityisesti netissä olevan materiaalin suhteen on vaarana, että lukijan on vaikea erottaa, mikä tieto perustuu tutkimukseen ja mikä on sepitettyä historiaa eli pseudohistoriaa. Pseudohistorian määritteleminen ei ole yksinkertaista, mutta karkeasti ottaen kyseessä on menneisyyden tapahtumien esittäminen tarkoitushakuisesti ja ilman historian tutkimuksen alalla vakiintuneita menetelmiä. Artikkelissa keskitymme tutkimaan pseudohistoriallisia kirjoituksia Suomen muinaisuudesta ja oletetuista kuninkaista. Olemme valinneet lähteiksi viisi aiheesta kirjoitettua blogikirjoitusta, kolme J…
Una storia italiana: Giorgio e Isabella
2018
Si tratta, qui, della storia di due italiani dalla “pelle scura” raccontata, per Giorgio Marincola, da Carlo Costa e Lorenzo Teodonio in Razza partigiana e, per la sorella Isabella, da Wu Ming 2 e Antar Mohamed in Timira. Romanzo meticcio. Le loro vicende, così come molti altri aspetti della nostra storia coloniale, neocoloniale e postcoloniale, sono riemerse dal buio nel quale erano state occultate solo nell’ultimo quindicennio, grazie alla riapertura degli archivi che ha permesso di ridiscutere molti degli aspetti che nelle pagine di Storia, così come in quelle letterarie, erano stati raccontati in altro modo. I due testi, che hanno inevitabilmente finito per incontrarsi e che potremmo in…

Identificación policial por perfil étnico en España. Informe sobre experiencias y actitudes en relación con las actuaciones policiales
2013
El objeto de este estudio es el análisis de los datos de dos encuestas realizadas por Metroscopia con el apoyo de Open Society Foundations, en el que se presentan los datos y las conclusiones sobre las experiencias de las paradas, registros e identi caciones policiales en España. Se ha constatado que, del alto número de identi caciones que reali- zan las fuerzas y cuerpos de seguridad en España frente a otros países, una proporción muy alta se dirige hacia individuos de minorías étnicas y de extranjeros migrantes de determinadas nacionalidades en compa- ración con la representatividad de su presencia en nuestro país. Esto es, se usa el per l étnico o la selección étnica en las identi cacion…
