Giovani, religione e pluralismo culturale: percorsi identitari e so- cializzazione
According to Sayad (2002), migrations play a 'mirror function', i.e. they allow us to refocus on issues that are already present in immigrant societies but have been overlooked in scien-tific-political analysis and debate. This also happens in the research on the relationship be-tween young people and the sacred. The becoming young and adult of the children of im-migration and the definition of their identities, including the religious one, have given rise to a flourishing season of studies on how religious sentiment is expressed in private and public space among those who are - for their own or their family's biography - an expres-sion of multicultural Italy. The contribution introduces the theme of the monographic sec-tion by recalling how from a season of scarce attention, whether and how the youth seg-ment of the population relates to aspects of religiosity has become the object of investiga-tion and analysis. The emergence of Italy as a country of immigration and the comparison with growing communities of Muslims has then added a specific lens dedicated to the dy-namics and processes of socialization, interiorization, management and visibility of being Muslim
Transmediterranei. Generazioni a confronto tra Italia e Nord Africa
Il volume presenta, a quarant’anni dai primi arrivi degli immigrati dal Nord Africa, un’indagine esplorativa sui figli di quella migrazione e su come il loro percorso identitario si intrecci e si differenzi da quello dei genitori. L’attenzione verso la sponda sud del Mediterraneo si è riaccesa con gli eventi della “Primavera Araba”, non solo a causa degli sbarchi ma anche del coinvolgimento transnazionale degli emigrati e dei loro figli verso i paesi d’origine. Queste dinamiche sono state approfondite a Torino, contesto che è stato sin dall’inizio approdo importante di marocchini ed egiziani e dove oggi le seconde generazioni crescono e si definisco in una città alle prese con una drammatica crisi economica
Migranti con elevate professionalità, tra bisogni e contraddizioni del mercato del lavoro
Changing educational roles and competences during the COVID crisis. A case study from Turin, Italy
Adopting the point of view of teachers and educators, authors explore
how educational relationships with immigrant students changed and how these changes have impacted their cognitive and emotional skills in a specific Italian context. Arguments are built on the data collected in micro case studies carried out in spring 2020 in formal and non-formal educational contexts in Northern Italy
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
