Criminalizzazione dei migranti. Neoliberismo e derive fasciste
2020
obiettivo di questo contributo è quello di riflettere, a partire da alcuni dati empirici, su alcune pericolose derive che si stanno configurando nel nostro paese e sulla criminalizzazione dei migranti come risorsa politica strategica. The aim of this contribution is to reflect, starting from some empirical data, on some dangerous drifts that are taking shape in our country and on the criminalization of migrants as a strategic political resource.
Il «gelo metallico dello Stato»: per una critica della crimmigration come nuda forza
2019
After outlining certain features of the phenomenon of «crimmigration» (the intertwining of criminal law and migration law), this paper notes two main issues. First, the fact that the condition of social exclusion in which crimmigration places the unwanted migrant — a condition that, being pro- dromic to the foreigner’s expulsion, should in principle be temporary — becomes stable in the many cases in which expulsion does not occur; as a result, large portions of the population that de facto fall within the State’s jurisdiction suffer long-term discrimination — in conflict with various consti- tutional principles, not least those enshrined in Articles 2 and 3 of the Constitution. Second, crim…
L'espulsione dello straniero tra apparenza e realtà.
2021
Il contributo analizza l'istituto dell'espulsione dello straniero irregolare, quale esempio paradigmatico della natura spuria delle diverse forme di manifestazione del fenomeno della c.d. "crimmigration". Nella prospettiva che a partire dall'accezione ampia di sanzione penale di recente avallata dalla Corte Costituzionale e valorizzando il recente allargamento del divieto di espulsione ai casi di radicamento sociale e lavorativo dello straniero nel territorio di residenza sia possibile avviare un processo di normalizzazione in chiave interpretativa della disciplina, il saggio invita ad inquadrare l'istituto dell'espulsione nelle sue diverse forme nel novero delle c.d. "pene mascherate", in …

Translating Migration in the Visual Arts: Calais Children and Project#RefugeeCameras as Collaborative Counter Narratives
2019
This study investigates the modalities through which the migrant crisis is portrayed in the creative artistic sector while accelerating the spread of political participatory and activist movements in the areas of subtitling and amateur translation. Participation and activism have stimulated the sphere of translation that has been acting as an important stimulus for the international mushrooming of artistic creativities on public spaces and digital platforms, and also for a different political and cultural reframing of the migrant crisis. 21 st -century mobility has made translation a crucial device for the negotiation of linguacultural transactions within cultural institutions, public space…
The Industrial City: The Multi-Ethnic Frontier of the Twentieth Century
2004
Between 1890 and 1920, big American industrial cities represented the frontier for the more than 23 million immigrants from southern and eastern Europe, Asia, and Central America, as well as for the African-Americans from the South. The development of mass consumption industries and the interventionism of the federal government provided security at the workplace and a general improvement in living standards for blue collar workers. The local party machines, the industrial unions and the effects of the First World War fully integrated the new immigrants into politics. Mass culture and entertainment made Americanization easier and, together with organised crime, were a quick way of social asc…
On the Bride’s side? Fra politica della dislocazione ed etica del posizionamento
2016
This paper aims at critically exploring the network geographies underlying the production, distribution and consumption of the Italian docu-film "On the Bride’s side". Through a successful crowdfunding campaign and hundreds of screenings throughout Europe, the docu- film has given rise to a wide diasporic public sphere. It is here that mainstream practices and alternative imaginations combine each other and unveil the complex and contested production of the cultural field
"LEILA ABOULELA'S LYRICS ALLEY: CROSSING THE SUDAN, EGYPT, AND BRITAIN
2012
This article scrutinises the theoretical and practical modalities which make Aboulela's text a site of intersection between fluctuating territories. Lyrics Alley testifies to the way in which the experiences of travelling and translating act as contemporary metaphors for Muslim subjects, and also surveys the procedures by which Sudan, Egypt and Britain become non-permament geographical spaces. Migrant characters who traverse Sudanese alleyways, Egyptian metropolitan streets and British routes act as translators as well as travellers, whose journeys towards in-between places lead them to cross boundaries, entering new territories and creating new subjectivities.
SUGGESTIONS OF SCENARIOS FOR RESTORING LONGITUDINAL CONNECTIVITY TO SUSTAIN FISH FAUNA MIGRATION UPSTREAM AND DOWNSTREAM OF APAHIDA BOTTOM SILL
2016
Rivers and their corridors form complex ecosystems that include adjacent land, flora and fauna and the actual courses of water. Given the ecological criteria for prioritizing the rehabilitation of longitudinal continuity of watercourses recommended by the International Commission for Protection of the Danube River (ICPDR) (Appendix 1) and starting from the analysis of the Management Plan to ensure longitudinal continuity of watercourses in Some?-Tisa River Area (Annex 9.17.a in BMP – Basin Management Plan) there have been proposed several scenarios in order to facilitate fish species migration above the bottom sill from Apahida. The selected case study is focused on the mentioned discharge …
Costa Blanca: Urban Evolution of a Mediterranean Region through GIS Data
2015
This paper investigates the international retirement migration from elderly northern Europeans into Spain and its influence on expansion of urban sprawl there. Key themes analyzed in this paper include the urban sprawl expansion during the Spanish housing bubble, and the link between lifestyle migrants and urban sprawl development. This paper considers the reasons for moving to Spain, which are chiefly related with the climate and lifestyle. It also explores the benefits and drawbacks of these en masse lifestyle migration and the environmental and landscape impacts on Mediterranean Spain. In order to visualize better this international migration we have created some GIS maps from a GIS proj…
