Italy and Colonies Study Circle Index Fil-Italia Italy and Colonies Study Circle Index Fil-Italia (volumes I – XLIV) Thirteenth Edition – January 2019 Index Editor’s Note It had been a tradition since the early days of Fil-Italia that a complete index was published every five years. In the autumn of 2003 I realised that the 30-year index would be expected in 2004. However, I was already concerned about the usefulness of the index published for the 25th anniversary and had noticed many errors in it. Also, as avid readers of Fil-Italia will be aware, I had never found the index very helpful. Fortunately, my grumblings in print brought forth an enthusiastic and well qualified volunteer, the now late Barth Healey, a member from New York, who offered a solution which I gratefully accepted. Barth spent many hundreds of hours during 2004/5 compiling a completely new index for the first 30 years of Fil-Italia. It was an extraordinary undertaking that was accomplished with amazing good humour and steely determination. We owe him a great debt of gratitude. The index details are kept in a computer database (for the technically minded it is an Access database) and are (usually) updated annually at the completion of each volume. At the same time, any errors or omissions that have come to light are corrected. Thus a fully up-to-date index becomes available every one or two years rather than every five years. This document is available as a free “pdf” file downloadable from the web site or as a “pdf” file on a CD for a small fee. (It can also be a printed book but at a price).

Query Index 154 Introduction What a humbling experience to browse through 122 chapters in the saga we know as Fil-Italia! The richness of the material that our society colleagues have provided us is quite remarkable, especially the contributions of our first editor, Colin Pilkington. I can only hope that this index will make this wealth of material more easily accessible. Here are some suggestions about using this index, which has been arranged by subject matter rather than by time period, as previous indexes have been. The arrangement by time period was most suitable for the first decades of Fil-Italia; by now the scope of the material is too vast to split up in this way. For the most part, every article is cross-indexed at least twice by subject. Maintaining cross-indexes over 122 numbers has proved the greatest challenge, and I have surely overlooked some connections, so researchers should check as many different topic headings as occur to them. Within the subject listings, the most substantial articles are listed as "Survey," or occasionally "Overview." As far as I have been able, all follow-up articles are listed under the same heading as the original. Checking the Author index and the subject headings listed for each writer is the most efficient way of finding the most substantial articles quickly. But for follow-up articles, you will have to go to the subject headings, e.g., after finding Colin Pilkington's articles on San Marino, check the "San Marino" listing in the subject index. Similarly, Book Reviews are listed by subject matter, and many of the books are available on loan through the society library. 3 Some general matters are not indexed: routine notes from the secretary about dues unpaid and the like, minutes from annual general meetings, new issues (where more comprehensive information is available from catalogues), general auction news (though notable sales are listed under Auctions). Letters are not indexed by author unless they include substantial information, but are indexed by subject matter. Page references are in this sequence: Volume (in Roman numerals), Issue Number, Whole Number; Page Number. Page numbers start at 1 with the first issue of the year and run consecutively through the year's issues, finishing at about 200. There are a few irregularities. For example, 122 is not evenly divisible by 4, an oddity for a quarterly. But the first year there were six issues, which did not carry either a volume or an issue number. These are the short page references herein, e.g., 3;61 is page 61, which came in the third issue of the first year. There were some numbering errors: The issue labeled II,3,10 (Autumn 1976) should have been II,4,10. This error has been corrected in the page references here. In this issue, pages 183 to 192, though present, may be unnumbered. Whole Number 35 (Winter 1982) should be Volume 9, Issue 1 (not 5). Whole Number 36 (Spring 1983) should be Volume 9, Issue 2 (not 3). The consecutive numbering was interrupted in Vol. XXVIII: Issue 1, Whole Number 111, included pages 1-48. Issue 2 (112) included pp. 1-30. Issue 3 (113) included pp. 79-134, correcting the consecutive sequence. I have not changed the page number references in Issue 2 (112). I have left out all accents, first, because they often are not interchangeable from one word-processing program to another, and second, because it seems somehow arrogant to use accents only in Romance languages and German, and not in the Scandinavian and Slavic languages, and few publications are conscientious about consistency. Abbreviations have been kept to a minimum. Aside from the obvious (P.O., U.P.U.), some others may be unfamiliar to collectors coming anew to Italian philately: A.M.G. -- Allied Military Government A.O.I. -- Africa Orientale Italiana (East Africa) F.I.P. -- Federation Internationale de Philatelie F.T.T. -- Free Territory of Trieste G.N.R. -- Guardia Nazionale Repubblicana, the Fascist state declared by Mussolini in September 1943. L.A.T.I. -- Linea Aerea Transatlantica Italiana V.G. -- Venezia-Giulia P.O.W. -- Prisoner of War PP.TT. -- Posts and Telegraphs R.S.I. -- Repubblica Sociale Italiana (Italian Social Republic), the Fascist government T.P.O. -- Travelling Post Office or Temporary Post Office Errors within such a mass of numbers are inevitable. The society will be maintaining an electronic copy of this index and would welcome corrections from colleagues. Personal thanks are due our current editor, Andy Harris, who has been very patient while I labored over this index, and to Tom Facelle, our New York member, who provided many of the back issues needed for this work. Collective thanks are due all our colleagues for enriching our lives with Fil-Italia. Barth Healey - Port Washington, New York - December 2004 (Sadly, Barth died in 2008.

  • Migration and Labor Market Integration in Europe
    Journal of Economic Perspectives—Volume 35, Number 2—Spring 2021—Pages 49–76 Migration and Labor Market Integration in Europe David Dorn and Josef Zweimüller he Treaty of Rome, signed in 1957 by Belgium, France, Italy, Luxem- bourg, the Netherlands, and West Germany, envisioned the development T of a common market with free movement of goods, capital, services and persons. Today, legal barriers to labor mobility across European countries have been dismantled: more than 460 million citizens of 31 European countries can choose to reside in any other partner country, they can work there without needing a work permit, and they are entitled to equal treatment with nationals in access to employment and public services. However, the European labor market remains considerably less integrated and more heterogeneous than the US labor market, which comprises a popula- tion of 330 million across the 50 states. For example, consider the dispersion of unemployment rates. In 2019, national unemployment rates in European countries were as low as 2.0 percent in Czechia and 3.2 percent in Germany, but as high as 13.7 percent in Spain and 16.6 percent in Greece (Eurostat 2020a). By comparison, state-level unemployment rates within the United States ranged from 2.4 percent to 6.1 percent (Bureau of Labor Statistics 2019). The European labor market also has much lower levels of spatial mobility. The share of European citizens living in a different country than their country of birth was less than 5 percent in 2019 ■ David Dorn is UBS Foundation Professor of Globalization and Labor Markets and Josef Zweimüller is Professor of Macroeconomics and Labor Markets, both at the University of Zurich, Zurich, Switzerland.

  • Fascist Italy's Aerial Defenses in the Second World War
    Fascist Italy's Aerial Defenses in the Second World War CLAUDIA BALDOLI ABSTRACT This article focuses on Fascist Italy's active air defenses during the Second World War. It analyzes a number of crucial factors: mass production of anti- aircraft weapons and fighters; detection of enemy aircraft by deploying radar; coordination between the Air Ministry and the other ministries involved, as well as between the Air Force and the other armed services. The relationship between the government and industrialists, as well as that between the regime and its German ally, are also crucial elements of the story. The article argues that the history of Italian air defenses reflected many of the failures of the Fascist regime itself. Mussolini's strategy forced Italy to assume military responsibilities and economic commitments which it could not hope to meet. Moreover, industrial self-interest and inter-service rivalry combined to inhibit even more the efforts of the regime to protect its population, maintain adequate armaments output, and compete in technical terms with the Allies. KEYWORDS air defenses; Air Ministry; anti-aircraft weapons; bombing; Fascist Italy; Germany; radar; Second World War ____________________________ Introduction The political and ideological role of Italian air power worked as a metaphor for the regime as a whole, as recent historiography has shown. The champions of aviation, including fighter pilots who pursued and shot down enemy planes, represented the anthropological revolution at the heart of the totalitarian experiment.1 As the Fascist regime had practiced terrorist bombing on the civilian populations of Ethiopian and Spanish towns and villages before the Second World War, the Italian political and military leadership, press, and industrialists were all aware of the potential role of air 1.

  • New Migration from Italy to Germany Chain Migration Or Circular Migration?
    La nuova emigrazione italiana Cause, mete e figure sociali a cura di Iside Gjergji New Migration from Italy to Germany Chain Migration or Circular Migration? Sonja Haug (OTH Regensburg, Deutschland) Abstract The discussion on new migration from Italy to Germany from the German point of view is focused on the skills shortage of the labour market which is moderated by a large num- ber of migrants from EU-countries, especially a growing number of workers from GIPS (Greece, Italy, Portugal, Spain). From Italy's point of view, the prior focus lies on the so-called Brain Drain (‘fuga dei cervelli’). Most of the Italian labour migrants in Germany recruited between 1955 and 1973 circulated or returned (90% return rate). Is the new migration from Italy to Germany simi- lar to that of the second half of the 20th century, implying a process of chain migration and cir- cular migration? The new migration flow from Italy to Germany is analysed in official statistics, with special attention to gender and age of migrants. Migration and integration policy together with results of survey studies on Italian migrants complete the description of the situation. Case studies show the example of migration to Bavarian boom towns. Summary 1. Introduction. – 1.1. Some Aspects of Migration Theory. – 1.2.

Such crisis has been most striking in countries like the UK and the US, with the votes for Brexit and Trump, given that for the last 30 years successive government administrations of both center-right and center-left political alignments there have been championing neoliberal reforms domestically and internationally, but the rise of populist movements has been years in the making in the folds of ordinary life across the ‘European’ world, and can arguably be best understood through an ethnographic research of the everyday space-making and border-renegotiating social processes that made a rightward shift possible in individual and collective consciences and that also allowed it to gather momentum at a wider scale.

  • Immigration in Italy: Recent Findings
    Immigration in Italy: Recent Findings Dossier Statistico Immigrazione Caritas/Migrantes 2007 Migration flows and the European context Europe, composed of states with millennial traditions, is now inhabited by citizens from many other countries. In the EU-27, an area with around a half a million people, immigrants with foreign citizenship account for approximately 28 million (at the beginning of 2006), but this number grows to approximately 50 million if those who have acquired citizenship in the meantime are included. This presence is set to grow, according to forecasts on demographic and labor needs. Free movement of workers is one of the key elements of European unification, therefore migration has marked Europe throughout its history. According to data from the 2007 Eurobarometro, if 48% of European citizens believe that an immigrant presence is necessary in certain economic sectors, almost as many express uncertainty about the presence of foreigners, in particular regarding the unemployment rate. Immigrants account for 5.6% of total population with important variations: 0.5% in new member countries (Romania and Bulgaria) and between 4% and 8% in the states of the EU-15. There are also important concentrations in certain regions: in France 40% of foreigners live in the Paris region where one resident out of eight is a foreign citizen; in the United Kingdom over one third of the foreign population lives in London’s metropolitan area; in Spain approximately half of all immigrants are based in Madrid or in Catalonia. In Italy, however there is a more territorial dispersion and only one fifth of immigrants reside in the provinces of Milan and Rome.
