The path and multi-level dependencies of three second-tier European cities – challenges to local social inclusion efforts
We present a distinct picture of the capacity of municipalities to act when faced with the challenges of migrants’ social inclusion, by applying the combined lens of path dependency and multi-level dependency to three second-tier European cities: Cluj-Napoca (Romania), Bologna (Italy), and Halle/Saale (Germany). Based on expert interviews, the case-oriented research addresses facets of local social inclusion policies: the adaptation to migration-…
Rural populists? Questioning the link between anti-environmentalism, populism and science criticism in rural areas
This paper aims to disentangle the dynamics of environmental conflicts in rural areas through a mixed qualitative and quantitative analysis of two case studies, in Italy and Portugal. Focusing on how opposition to environmental policies can be interpreted beyond reductive labels such as ‘rural populism’ or ‘anti-environmentalism’, our findings emphasise the importance of considering context-specific needs and community perspectives. By questionin…
Urban migrant citizenship in syndemic times in Italian small towns
The COVID-19 syndemic hit disadvantaged social groups hard, especially migrants. Municipalities had to address magnified vulnerabilities during lockdowns, impacting migrants' access to social services and urban citizenship. This paper investigates how Italian local administrations and networks managed migrants' vulnerabilities during the COVID-19 syndemic, and how this shaped urban migrant citizenship in small and medium-sized towns (SMTs). Here …
Small localities, large conflicts
Integration policies emerged as a critical focus of local policymaking in smaller towns, driven not only by migration trends in these areas, but also by the growing political influence of local radical right parties (RRPs). This trend occurred across various European countries, including Belgium and Italy, raising new questions about the impact on policy formation of locally embedded RRPs and the social and political polarisation dynamics which f…

Diversity and local business structure in European urban contexts
This article investigates the interconnectedness between neighbourhood diversity and local business structures. For this purpose, interviews with residents and entrepreneurs were conducted in three European cities: Budapest, Copenhagen, and Milan. The results show that diversity in the economic structure of urban neighbourhoods is equally important with regards to residents’ quality of life, the image of the neighbourhood, and local social cohesi…

The (mis)recognition of diversity in Italy between policy and practice
The article analyses the discourses, strategies and daily practices about diversity in Milan, Italy, framing them at different scales: (a) the national model of integration; (b) the city-level debate and policy framework about diversity; (c) the neighbourhood-level initiatives addressing (directly or indirectly) diversity; (d) representations and narratives about diversity among the residents of two neighbourhoods in the city. Drawing on qualitat…
Social workers and intercultural mediators
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 profe…
Governance arrangements targeting diversity in Europe
This article analyses how policies to foster social cohesion within diverse and unequal urban contexts are affected by New Public Management and austerity policies. Based on the analysis of a handful of governance arrangements in three cities that differ in their institutional structure and diversity policy approaches (Copenhagen, Leipzig and Milan), it is shown that negative effects are quite widespread yet cushioned by a strong welfare state st…
The territorial dimension of social policies and the new role of cities
The territorial dimension of social citizenship has for long been a neglected perspective in comparative social policy analysis. Conversely, in urban studies the importance of national regulatory systems has been underplayed and the nested nature of cities has been for long disregarded. More generally, scholars took for granted that citizenship systems were tied to the national level. The deep structural changes that occurred after the end of the…

Blurred Rights, Local Practices
This article analyses the role of professional social workers in managing immigrant clients' needs in Italy, against a background of residual welfare provision, inconsistent immigrant policies and piecemeal integration. After framing the main challenges migration poses to the Italian welfare system, with particular regard to social services, we highlight the centrality of practitioners' commitment and discretionary power in addressing migrants' n…
Social Assistance Governance in Europe
The territorial dimension of social policies has for long been a neglected perspective in comparative social policy analysis. Scholars took for granted that social policies were national policies and almost all comparative work which has been done after the Second World War based comparisons on national data. This is not surprising; social policies developed mainly through nationally regulated social insurance programmes still absorb in all count…
