L'espulsione del migrante e la "materia penale" tra prevenzione e repressione
2018
A partire dalla constatazione delle molteplici forme che la misura dell'espulsione dello straniero assume nell'ordinamento italiano e collocandosi nella prospettiva - oramai acquisita da gran parte della cultura penalistica - del definitivo superamento di una visione strettamente formalistica di materia penale, il contributo analizza in chiave critica la misura in oggetto, sottoponendola la banco di prova dei criteri impiegati tanto in dottrina, quanto dalla giurisprudenza della costituzionale e della corte Edu per determinare la natura “punitiva” o non “punitiva” di uno strumento afflittivo. Il fine dell'indagine è dii soppesare significati e finalità dell'espulsione sia rispetto alla nozi…
Emigration from Latvia: A Brief History and Driving Forces in the Twenty-First Century
2019
AbstractIn recent years, Latvia has established itself as one of the top two countries with the most intensive emigration among EU/EFTA member states. This chapter starts by describing the demographic context and the scale of emigration post-2000, followed by a brief history of the main population flows (migration, refugees and deportation) from and to Latvia in the twentieth century. It then offers a more detailed analysis of emigration during the first 15 years of the twenty-first century including a closer look at the four waves of recent emigration: (i) the pre-EU accession wave, 2000–2003; (ii) the post-accession wave, 2004–2008; (iii) the crisis-driven wave, 2009–2010; and (iv) the po…
Social Inclusion and Exclusion in the Life Stories of Deported Asylum Seekers from Finland to Iraqi Kurdistan
2018
This study explores how social inclusion and exclusion manifest as a dynamic continuum in the everyday lived realities of irregular migrants. Based on narratives of Iraqi Kurdish asylum seekers, who were eventually deported from Finland, the analysis depicts the ways in which societal structures, personal negotiations as well as relationships and social networks interplay in lives characterized by multiple locations, transitions and positions. Establishing and maintaining social contacts, belonging to various networks and being able to decide and act are primary factors that help us understand how the narrators relate to the continuum. The participants construct narratives illustrating seve…
Immigrant Detention Centres in Spain: a critical assessment
2012
This paper presents a critical examination of the management of irregular migration flows in Spain and the legal principles and administrative practices implemented by the State in the process of expulsion that legitimise the existence of Immigrant Detention Centres (CIE). It also provides a description of the current situation of the CIE, and reports on the most recent proposals made by the Spanish government to improve the management of CIE in response to pressure exerted by civil society organisations, especially after public protests regarding the death of two inmates in December 2011 and January 2012.
The Slow Violence of Deportability
2020
In 2015, Finland, like other European countries, received an unprecedented number of asylum seekers. Later, in the aftermath of what we prefer to call the ‘refugee reception crisis’, the deportation of those who had received negative asylum decisions began. The Finnish Immigration Service significantly tightened its policies after 2015. Increasingly strict asylum criteria have resulted in deportations at a level never seen before. Furthermore, protests against deportations have increased and become publicly salient. In this chapter we theorize deportation as a form of slow violence that hurts not only its main target but also people nearby. While a forced removal can be seen as a single, po…
