All’indomani dell’unificazione politica italiana, la Penisola presentava molteplici differenze culturali, economiche e sociali tra le diverse regioni. Anche negli anni successivi la politica sabauda ...non riuscì a promuovere una crescita industriale ed economia omogenea, che rispondesse alla domanda di lavoro con un’adeguata offerta. Così tra il 1880 ed il 1930, oltre 17 milioni di uomini e donne varcarono le frontiere nazionali, chi per pochi mesi, chi per qualche anno e chi per non farvi più ritorno. Questo fenomeno epocale ebbe delle rilevanti ripercussioni su molteplici aspetti della vita politica, giuridica, economica e sociale del nostro Paese. In particolare con il presente saggio si intende analizzare gli aspetti dell’emigrazione legati all’ordine pubblico, al disinteresse dello Stato italiano nei confronti dei propri migranti, al lucro delle società di trasporto e agli istituti giuridici che miravano alla tutela dei migranti.
Social work in Europe is facing numerous challenges in terms of promoting the participation of migrants and their descendants in super-diverse societies. This study investigates collaboration between ...social workers and intercultural mediators based on international debate and fieldwork in Italy. Does social work require collaboration with other professions specialised in intercultural relations? What are the characteristics of intercultural professionals? What are the pros and cons of collaboration between social workers and intercultural mediators? This study shows that local social services need to work with intercultural mediators, allowing local social services to implement various strategies for tackling cultural and linguistic barriers with their clients and rely on professionals inside or outside their own. Furthermore, intercultural mediators tend to have weak and heterogeneous training backgrounds and working conditions. This article aims to contribute to the debate on the welfare reform process to support migrants and their descendants' equal rights and participation in society, highlighting the need for collaboration between interculturally aware social workers and intercultural mediators to tackle institutional structural weaknesses in such professions as part of an organisational innovation process in social-welfare institutions.

This paper examines transferable knowledge from the work of citizen volunteers addressing migrant needs in Europe, relevant to social work with migrants at border hotspots. The discussion is based on ...a case study conducted in the unofficial Calais camp in June 2016, which included semi-structured interviews with long-term volunteers; participant observation; and field and reflective notes. The inductive analysis examined volunteer experience, and mechanisms and values underpinning their decision-making at critical moments in the camp's history. Starting from the observation that the circumstances at the border were a liminal, 'in-between', space in which migrants lived in limbo between leaving and arriving, and between cultures, life styles, and identities, we examined the implications for workers who experienced this environment by proxy, and how they developed a service infrastructure in these conditions. A horizontal, contribution working model emerged in the context of a strong bond between workers, shared human experience with camp residents, and powerful intrinsic motivation informed by a sense of duty to care. Implications for social work are discussed in the context of the profession's search for clarity of its role in addressing grand global challenges, including forced migration.

Analizira vznik posebnega tipa transnacionalnih subjektov – migrantov kot posrednikov med proizvajalci zunaj Kitajske in potrošniki na Kitajskem in razkriva povezave med predmeti in raznolikimi izkušnjami migracij ter prispeva k diskusiji o potrošnji otrokom namenjenih izdelkov.
Cilj. Izložiti rad djelatnika u Knjižnici Dugave koji se odnosi na rad s migrantima i izbjeglicama.Također, pokazati odnos lokalne zajednice prema novim stanovnicima te njihovu spremnost za ...upoznavanje novih kultura. Prikazati uključivanje svih odjela unutar knjižnice te navesti različite akcije ujedinjene oko istog cilja – inkluzije migranata i izbjeglica u lokalnu zajednicu.
Pristup/metodologija. Kronološki prikaz suradnje knjižnice s drugim institucijama koje su željele pomoći u novonastaloj situaciji.
Rezultati. Kronološki prikaz pokazuje koliko se suradnja Knjižnice Dugave širila na različite institucije i pojedince iz godine u godinu. Spremnost lokalne zajednice da dozna i upozna nove stanovnike i zemlje iz kojih dolaze. Stručno praćenje te studije vezane uz ovu temu ukazuju na daljnju potrebu i djelovanje knjižnice kao spone između lokalne zajednice i migranata te između institucija i migranata.
Originalnost/vrijednost. Rad je prvi u Republici Hrvatskoj koji se bavi prikazom rada s migrantima unutar knjižnice te pokazuje dobru suradnju s ostalim institucijama. Prikazan je i rad na senzibiliziranju lokalne zajednice za migrante. Na nekoliko različitih primjera dane su smjernice za rad u drugim knjižnicama ukoliko se nađu u istoj situaciji.
Značajan dio ljudske povijesti bio je protkan seobama, kojih je Europa bila pošteđena od godina nakon Drugoga svjetskog rata. U desetak posljednjih godina, međutim, Europa se susreće s pojavom ...migracija koje nije očekivala, premda su je ratovi na njezinu jugoistoku, te potom na azijskom Srednjem istoku i Bliskom istoku, ali i vlastita demografska kretanja i klimatske promjene, morali na njih upozoriti. Migracije našeg vremena postaju sve više globalni fenomen i jasan signum temporis, koji traži globalne odgovore, a to što prije jer se na obzorju nazire tsunami novih, klimatskih, izbjeglica. Prvi dio ovog rada bavi sa najprije pojmovima ‒ migranti, izbjeglice, azilanti, prognanici…i njihovim distinguo, da bi zatim, u drugom dijelu, sučelio načela i vrednote opće Crkve i kršćana katolika u mjesnim Crkvama ‒ opće dobro i dobra univerzalne namjene, dostojanstvo, slobode i prava ljudske osobe s međunarodnim inicijativama i mogućnostima pojedinih država te s diskursom političara i strahovima građana.
Teaching languages to migrants through ICT L-Pack Project for Italian and other languages (Citizenship Language Pack for Migrants in Europe)The most recent trends in technology and the internet, ...commonly called Web 2.0., have determined new concepts in teaching and learning that involve autonomy, multimodality and flexibility. New approaches to ‘knowledge by technology’ are changing both teachers’ and learners’ roles, responding to their different aims and needs. At the same time, nearly 4 million people are presently involved in massive migration processes all over Europe, coming either from outside Europe or from another EU member state. The EU policies on migrants state the importance of a basic knowledge of the host country’s language, history and institutions for an effective integration process, and EU governments are expected to contribute to this aim. This paper describes the European Project ‘L-PACK: Citizenship Language Pack For Migrants in Europe’ (2011-2016), whose main aim consisted in developing a series of internet video texts, accompanied with materials and resources to lead adult migrants to A2 level (according to QCER levels scale) in different EU languages. The project has been developed in two main stages. In the first part of the programme, called L-Pack 1, from 2011 to 2013, the languages were Italian, Spanish, German, Lithuanian, Greek and Czech. In the second part, called L-Pack 2 extended, from 2014 to 2016, the project added English and French and was integrated with new resources and tools. The L-PACK course, which consists of 60 short video dialogues from everyday life, supported by comprehension activities and linguistic explanation and rules, is totally free and available through Youtube, Wikibooks and Soundcloud. The dedicated website http://www.l-pack.eu was visited by 120.000 users from 146 countries in the period 2011-2016. L-Pack teaching materials have also been used by teachers in classroom activities. The authors analyze and evaluate the results of the L-Pack Project, from pilot to dissemination, in different learning contexts both in situ and through e-learning. This is carried out on the basis of surveys concerning the project as a whole and in particular its use in Italian language teaching classes for migrants in Italy.
Questo contributo costituisce un’ulteriore occasione per riflettere su un ambito centrale della mia attività didattica e di ricerca intorno e dentro le logiche e le modalità comunicative in Rete: ...Internet come luogo nel quale si offrono molteplici e significative opportunità di plasmare la propria, meglio le proprie, identità attraverso la partecipazione e la condivisione, soprattutto con la scrittura.
