Mind the gap! Organized hypocrisy in EU cooperation with Southern neighbor countries on international protection
The European Union (EU) has reacted to the migration crises of the last decade with growing externalization of migration management to neighbor countries often accused of not respecting human rights and individual liberties. Focusing on EU cooperation with the Southern neighborhood, as defined within the European Neighborhood Policy (ENP) framework, this paper investigates the recent developments in the EU's external migration policies, demonstra…
Italian migration policy between perceptions and practices
This introductory article aims to provide a theoretical framework for the special issue and to apply the perspective of the interactive model to the role of domestic and external variables in the analysis of Italian migration policy. The interactive model goes beyond the dyadic approach to identify different forms of interplay between the international and national variables affecting the decision-making process.

Family investments in low-income children’s achievement and socioemotional functioning
Family processes and parenting practices help explain developmental differences between children in low- versus higher-income households.

All this has been changing over the last few years. In this context, the article intends to i…

It includes a large spectrum of services and is strongly based …

Defining and Defying Organised Crime
Organized crime is now a major threat to all industrial and non-industrial countries. Using an inter-disciplinary and comparative approach this book examines the nature of this threat. By analysing the existing, official institutional discourse on organized crime it examines whether or not it has an impact on perceptions of the threat and on the reality of organized crime. The book first part of the book explores both the paradigm and the rationa…
