The Ethics of Migration. Reflections on Recent Migration Policies and "Non-Policies" in Italy and Europe

The thesis of this essays is that the European experience of migratory flows’ management is particularly instructive in terms of the role that politics – or “non politics” – can play in conditioning the volume and composition of flows, albeit in ways that are not necessarily coherent with their official goals. And it is equally instructive as to how the fragmentariness of directives and their autonomy with respect to a broader project of nation building and regulating coexistence end up producing solutions that are not necessarily attentive to the ethical dimension.
