About this ebook

This groundbreaking edited book offers an innovative lens to explore how migration and social change are intertwined, moving beyond sensationalized media narratives and political agendas. It introduces the concept of "migratory stratification," challenging researchers to focus on the long-lasting effects of migration rather than fleeting, superficial headlines. By investigating immigrant labour dynamics, migration policies, and socio-historical contexts, the book delves into the structural forces that shape migration and the working-class struggles that emerge. Featuring in-depth case studies from Italy, it reveals migration's deep social impact on labour, politics, and urban spaces, providing fresh insights into contemporary migration studies.

Ideal for academics, policymakers, and readers interested in a nuanced, long-term view of migration, Migratory Stratifications sheds light on the stratification processes that influence both immigrants and the societies they reshape.
