Mr Veltroni, mayor of Rome and national leader of the Democratic Party stated: Before Romania EU accession, Rome was the safest capital in the world. We need to repatriate people again; otherwise cities like Rome, Milan and Turin can’t cope with the situation (La Repubblica, 1 November 2007). The decree was presented by key political figures of the government as a necessary response to the existing widespread alarm surrounding the arrival and settlement in Italy of Romanian migrants, in particular if of Romani ethnic origin2. To capture the spirit of the time, ‘a continuing anti-foreigner outcry unmatched in Italy’s recent history’ according to Hopper (The Guardian, 2 November 2007), it may be helpful to recall the words of the prefect of Rome, Carlo Mosca, in the wake of the approval of the emergency decree. Mr Mosca stated: I shall sign the first expulsion orders straightaway. A hard line is needed because, faced with animals, the only way to react is with maximum severity’ (The Guardian, 3 November 2007). It must also be noted that the comment did not prompt controversy. The decree [decreto-legge], which is part of series of policy proposals labelled ‘pacchetto sicurezza’, while benefited from a wide support among the Italian public and political leadership, alerted some Italian NGOs and attracted the attention of international observers and commentators who saw in it a potential discriminatory instrument targeted at a single ethnic group: the Romanian Roma3. 1 We wish to thank all individuals and organisations that helped us with their time and knowledge in Milan, Rome, Bologna and Naples. A special thank you to Julia Bell and Kristin Sian Jenkins for their help to translate and edit the final report. 2 In a press release dated 7 November 2007, Amnesty International (Italy) invites the members of the Italian government and MPs ‘to refrain from generalisations, to avoid allusions to an alleged collective responsibility of a specific migrant group, and not to use the unacceptable equation between poverty and attitude to crime’: www.amnesty.it/pressroom/comunicati/CS127-2007.html 3 In the main European newspapers, the news on the Italian decree on the removal and deportation of EU citizen is reported extensively. During November ‘07, the Financial Times followed closely the initiatives undertaken by Italian central and local authorities to deal with the so called ‘emergenza rom romeni’. On 28 November, a FT article (‘Italian cities to clear gypsy sites’) reports to its international readership that ‘several local authorities across Italy are clearing out gypsy settlements, blaming rising crime on a mass influx of migrants caused by European Union enlargement’. On 3 November, an article in the Guardian (‘Italian police begin to round up Romanians’) reports that ‘Italian police yesterday began combing shantytowns in Rome and other big cities to locate Romanians targeted for expulsion under legislation introduced after the gruesome murder of a woman on the outskirts of the capital 3 OsservAzione The ‘latest’ public enemy: Romanian Roma in Italy Rossana Rossanda, a well-known leftwing intellectual, crystallises this position, saying in an interview to Repubblica (3 Nov 2007): The reaction of the Italian government to the murder of Mrs Reggiani was disgusting. There is no other word. I heard that police forces turned up in Romani encampments, among those miserable huts and shacks, to dismantle everything and evict innocent people. These, to me, are fascist behaviours, with no justification. I have never seen something like that [in Italy]. The views on the Italian initiative have therefore been extreme and diverse, ranging from those who condemned the decree as racist or a violation of human rights, to those who suggested that the decree is to a large extent in line with the EU Directive on the freedom of circulation of member states citizens in the EU territory (2004/38/CE), to those who consider the decree a mere populist response to public anxiety with no actual effectiveness. The present research was undertaken in a two month period between the publication of the decree and when it ceased to be in force. In fact, according to the article 77 of the Italian Constitution, while the government can adopt, in ‘extraordinary cases of necessity and urgency’, provisional measures having the force of law, these measures lose effect from their inception ‘if they are not converted into law within sixty days from their publication’. On 19 December 2007, two weeks before the deadline (1 January 2008) for conversion into law of the decree, the Minister in charge of the liaisons with the Parliament, Vannino Chiti, reported to the assembly the decision of the government to renounce the conversion of the decree n. 181/2007, officially, because of legal flaws in the text approved by the Senate which were not amendable in the limited time available before the deadline4. Ten days later, on 29 December, a new decree containing ‘urgent measures for combatting international terrorism and for extraordinary needs of public security’ (n. 249/2007) was signed by the President of the Republic and published in the Official Gazette on 2 January 2008. While largely consistent with the previous decree in its contents, the new act has a broader policy scope including measures to combat ‘international terrorism’5. Aims, objectives and methods of research The scope of research is defined by three parameters: the actual implementation of the decree; the public perception of the ‘Gypsies’ and the impact of both on Romani people living in Italy. The main aims of research, therefore, are: • to analyse the current situation of Roma in Italy, with particular attention to the Romanian Roma, in the period between 31 October 2007 and 31 December 2007; • to investigate media coverage and public perception of Roma and Roma- related issues; • to monitor policy and practice, both at national and local levels, to respond to the alleged ‘invasion’ of Romanian Roma. this week’ highlighting the widespread support of the hard line adopted by the government on the matter. 4 Up to 27 December 2007, the decree produced 510 removals of EU citizens, of which 181 for ‘imperative reasons of public security’ (Sole 24 Ore, 28 December). 5 See Vassallo Paleologo (2007) for a critical analysis of the decree 249/2007 4 OsservAzione The ‘latest’ public enemy: Romanian Roma in Italy In order to achieve the stated aims of research, the research team has carried a number of activities: • Investigating the enforcement of the decree n. 181 both at the national level and, in four case studies, at the local level. These four cities were chosen for their geographical diversity, the size of the Romanian Roma population, and, the local history of settlement of Roma communities, in particular from Romania. Moreover, as the decree gives to prefetti, (the highest representatives of the government in the localities) a large margin of autonomy (see art. 19, 20, 21 of the Decree 181/2007), it was crucial to investigate the way the decree was interpreted and enforced locally; • Monitoring local authorities’ initiatives targeted at Romanian Roma. The focus on local authorities is central, since in the Italian context municipalities have a large autonomy in this area of governance and, as we observed in previous research (Sigona and Monasta, 2006; Sigona, 2006), their policy, approach and attitude towards Roma varies greatly; • Monitoring media coverage of Roma-related issues in the period between 31 October to 15 December.

  • The Case of Romanian Workers in Italy
    Migrating or Commuting? The Case of Romanian Workers in Italy: Niches for Labour Commuting to the EU Florentina Constantin Florentina Constantin holds graduate degrees in Economy and Society from the University of Lancaster and in Sociology from the Central European University, and is at present a PhD student of the Graduate School for Social Research in Warsaw, Poland. Introduction An increase in the number of foreign-born residents has become a widespread phenomenon in Western Europe in the past two decades. Moreover, “in relative terms the largest increases in foreign population stocks were in countries that have traditionally been considered ones of emigration. In four such countries the foreign population more than doubled: Finland (up 218.8 percent to 1992), Italy (161.5 percent)[1], Portugal (131.2 percent) and Spain (124 percent)”.[2] Focusing on the case of Romanian workers in Italy, I intend to challenge the traditional approach towards migration in the European Union. I will argue that, when analysing the situation of Romanian workers, the term “migration” becomes more and more inadequate in addressing the problem of migrant workers in the EU. Instead, I will make use of the more specific term “commuting”, which international organisations and academic literature have previously used to describe short-term labour migration. Short –term labour migrants do not remain in the country for long – “they may come for the day, the week or on a seasonal basis for short periods of time to work either legally on contracts or ‘illegally’ as ‘tourists’” However, simply classifying labour commuting as “short-term migration” would be incorrect, as it does not adequately reflect, in many instances, the longer-term nature of the phenomenon of international “commuting” and also overlooks crucial aspects of the activity and life of persons involved in transnational labour.

Como dice Laudato si’, las consecuencias del cambio climático Hazotan con mayor fuerza a las personas más vulnerables del planeta, mientras que ellas ni siquiera disfrutan de las ventajas de usar los combustibles fósiles. Los líderes religiosos, llamados a condenar las nuevas formas de esclavitud, han subrayado la relación entre el ambiente natural y el ambiente humano. De hecho, el calentamiento global es una de las causas de la pobreza y de las migraciones forzadas, favoreciendo la trata de personas, el trabajo forzado, la prostitución y el tráfico de órganos. Más de 30 millones de personas son víctimas de la esclavitud moderna, traficadas en un mercado abominable con ganancias ilegales que se estiman en 150 000 millones de dólares al año. Desde el inicio de su pontificado, el Papa Francisco ha adoptado una postura firme contra la esclavitud moderna, exhortando a todas las comunidades a rechazar rotundamente y sin excepciones toda privación sistemática de la libertad individual con fines de explotación personal y comercial. Una de sus iniciativas, el Grupo Santa Marta, que fundó junto con el Cardenal Vincent Nichols, reúne a obispos y a organismos policiales de todo el mundo.

  • Who Attended?
    FOURTH MEETING OF THE OECD Champion Mayors for Inclusive Growth 18 March 2019 | Athens, Greece WHO’S WHO HOSTS Angel Gurría, Secretary-General, OECD As Secretary-General of the Organisation of Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) since 2006, Angel Gurría has firmly established the Organisation as a pillar of the global economic governance architecture including the G7, G20 and APEC, and a reference point in the design and implementation of better policies for better lives. He has broadened OECD’s membership with the accession of Chile, Estonia, Israel, Latvia and Slovenia, and has made the Organisation more inclusive by strengthening its links with key emerging economies. Under his watch, the OECD is leading the effort to reform the international tax system, and to improve governance frameworks in anti-corruption and other fields. He has also heralded a new growth narrative that promotes the well-being of people, including women, gender and youth, and has scaled up the OECD contribution to the global agenda, including the 2015 Paris Agreement on Climate Change and the adoption of the Sustainable Development Goals. Mr. Gurría came to the OECD following a distinguished career in public service in his country, holding positions such as Minister of Foreign Affairs and Minister of Finance and Public Credit in the 1990s. For the first time in a generation, he steered Mexico’s economy through a change of Administration without a recurrence of the financial crises that had previously dogged such changes. Mr. Gurría holds a B.A. degree in Economics from UNAM (Mexico) and M.A. degree in Economics from Leeds University (United Kingdom).
