Abstract

Castles and Miller define the current period as the “age of migration” (2015), identifying the global population movements as the crucial aspect of contemporaneity. Despite people have always moved to escape poverty and war, or to strengthen their status, since mid-nineteenth century mass migrations, the phenomenon started to have intensity, dimension and exposure not comparable to the past. The debate on and the management of the migration phenomenon are necessarily closely linked to the identification of effective modes of integration. But what is integration? How is it actually implemented and how is its value measured?
