Radicalizzazione
2020
Il termine “radicalizzazione” rimanda al processo che spinge l’individuo e/o il gruppo ad azioni violente, ma anche alla diffusione di idee radicali in nome di un’ideologia estrema sia essa di m trice politica, religiosa o sociale. Non è facile proporre una definizione del fenomeno che risulti esaustiva, poiché diverse sono le teorie, le fasi e i fattori che concorrono alla sua determinazione. In questa sede, si farà riferimento a definizioni e ad approcci, rimandando ad ulteriori approfondi- menti in altre sedi.
Capital humain et compétences de base des adultes : production et valorisation
2013
Basic skills are important in current policies because of high costs generated by illiteracy and supported by the society. The aim of the present thesis is to bring a new contribution on this thematic in a microeconomic approach. It consists of two parts. The first one concerns the valorization of basic skills on the labor market, through chapters 1 and 2, while the second one concerns the production of French skills according to the migratory origins, through chapters 3 and 4. Chapter 1 is about the returns to basic skills on the labor market, in terms of overeducation/undereducation and in terms of wages. The central hypothesis is to assume that education, through the diploma, is not a go…
SECOND-GENERATION MIGRANTS: IDENTIFICATION PROBLEMS
2022
The expression “second-generation” is particularly complex for several reasons. First of all, because of the link with the term “generation,” the use of the adjective “second,” and the meanings attributed to it by those so defined. Moreover, the conceptual category refers to different situations, each with different issues that are difficult to compare. The condition of the second generation or of the set of second-generation migrants appears ambiguous because it oscillates between forms of alienation and forms of belonging, between situations of marginality and situations of activism and protagonism. Therefore, the expression “second-generation” often appears reductive for a number of reas…

Vulnerability in Migration: The Applicability of European Recommendations, International Reports and Guidelines to the Italian System of Reception an…
2018
The European Parliament’s Report focuses on the integration processes for a particular category of refugees, considered as belonging to “vulnerable groups”, namely women seeking international protection and female refugees. Women seeking international protection or refugees, in fact, are bearers of demands and needs which, in part, are specific to all those people who, often forced to abruptly abandon their countries of origin, seek protection in host countries, bringing with themselves a heavy burden of persecution, war, violence and poverty. The humanitarian response along the routes of the eastern Mediterranean and the western Balkans has set as a priority the introduction of measures to…
AYLAN E COLONIA. DALLA GUERRA AI MIGRANTI AL RESPINGIMENTO DEI REFUGEES
2017
This contribution aims to shed light on the specific mechanism of migrant categorization implemented by the so-called «Hotspot approach», which was launched by the EU Agenda on Migration in May 2015. This approach is here envisaged as a response to the current changes in the composition of migration towards Europe. Provisions contained in EU and Italian policy documents are compared with concrete practices enacted on the ground by investigating two case studies: the initial opening of the Hotspot at Milo, in Trapani, and the first months of functioning of the Hotspot on Lampedusa. The empirical research covers the period between the last months of 2015 and the beginning of 2016. The short-t…
Epidemiological characteristics of COVID-19 cases in non-Italian nationals in Sicily: identifying vulnerable groups in the context of the COVID-19 pa…
2022
As in other parts of the world, undocumented migrants in Italy suffer worse health status due to their immigration enforcement situation and other vulnerabilities such as precarious illegal jobs, exploitation and abuse or barriers to higher education, with higher prevalence of chronic noncommunicable diseases. The COVID-19 pandemic, as other pandemics, has not affected everyone equally. The undocumented was one of the most affected groups with regard to hospitalization rates and mortality worldwide. Sicily is one of the gates of entrance to Europe for migrants and asylum seekers from Africa and Asia. Herein, we described the epidemiological characteristics of COVID-19 cases in Sicily to com…
Vulnerability, freedom of choice and structural global injustice: The “consent” to exploitation of migrant women workers
2019
This chapter analyzes the philosophical implications related to the “position of vulnerability” defined by the Directive 2011/36/EU on Preventing and Combating Trafficking in Human Beings and Protecting its Victims as “a situation in which the person concerned has no real or acceptable alternative but to submit to the abuse involved” (art. 2.2). In particular, the chapter focuses on the “choice” made by migrant women employed in care and domestic work and in the agricultural sector in Italy. The Italian labor market is marked by the exploitation of migrant women, especially women from Romania, due to social, economic and legal factors that will be considered from a gender perspective. Women…
III Rapporto Migrazioni in Sicilia 2015
2016
Con la terza edizione del rapporto “Migrazioni in Sicilia 2015”, si è voluto analizzare il fenomeno delle migrazioni in Sicilia facendo riferimento agli ultimi dati messi a disposizione dalle varie fonti utilizzate. Nei casi, pochi per la verità, in cui ci si è riferiti a periodi precedenti, lo si è fatto con la consapevolezza che i dati possano comunque essere utili sia ad analisi di aspetti del fenomeno migratorio non trattati in precedenza sia a successivi approfondimenti. In questo rapporto, rispetto alle edizioni precedenti, si introduce una novità: alle sezioni sostanzialmente descrittive del fenomeno migratorio in Sicilia, si accompagnano diversi box di approfondimento su temi specif…
