Reviews
“By combining political and social analysis with historiographical debate from the last few decades, this volume manages to account for the complexity of Italian migratory phenomena and shows how they proceed in waves, repeating themselves regularly over the last three centuries.”
—Matteo Sanfilippo, University of Tuscia, Italy and Coordinator of Studi Emigrazione
“This ensemble of essays vividly demonstrates how the rigorous study of the politics, economics, and cultures of Italian emigration deepens our general understanding of migrant realities and imaginaries. The rich diversity of historical periods and geographic locations covered herein is a testament to the negotiated creation of a transnational, transcultural, and varied sense of Italianness forged in the diaspora.”
—Joseph Sciorra, Queens College, City University of New York, USA, and Editorial Director of Italian American Review
