Cittadinanza e migrazioni nei grandi agglomerati urbani

[Autom. eng. transl.] This Report intends to constitute an information and updating tool, which is not unique and not exhaustive, which is fueled above all by experiences and research carried out within the Cariplo Foundation for Initiatives and the Study on Multi-ethnicity. The analysis of the Italian situation is addressed in the light of the indications that derive from the literature and from the experiences matured on the international level. Today there is reason to believe that, after the years of the start and consolidation of an innovative phenomenon in the history of our country in the modern era, the need to make a clear and objective assessment of the role that belongs to the different actors in the migration process. According to the expectations that are emerging, the end of the 90s can and must represent the start of a new cycle, in which the events of the foreign presence on the Italian territory are brought back into a context of normalization and in which the cultural attitude and the behaviors are finally inspired by the binomial "solidarity-legality". The Report is organized in three thematic areas: the first, the "general framework", provides the basic data of the phenomenon; the second, the "areas of attention", allows us to grasp the main migration trends; the third, "emerging themes", focuses attention on particularly topical issues also at international level.
