Abstract in italiano

Dagli anni '90 del secolo scorso, la nozione di regime migratorio è divenuta sempre più popolare tra gli studiosi di migrazioni internazionali. Questa crescente diffusione non è stata tuttavia accompagnata dall’adozione di una definizione precisa del concetto. Attraverso un'interpretazione ermeneutica della letteratura esistente sui regimi migratori, in questo saggio mostriamo come, nonostante le attuali ambiguità, il concetto continui a fornire un’utile prospettiva nello studio della regolazione politica dei flussi migratori internazionali. In particolare, esso si rivela utile per esplorare in modo realistico l’attuale ruolo degli stati-nazione nei sistemi di mobilità globale.

 Abstract in inglese

Since the 1990s, the notion of migration regime has enjoyed a growing popularity in social sciences. The popularity of a term has not been matched, however, by the development of a precise definition. Through a hermeneutical interpretation of the literature on migration regimes, we show how, despite its current imperfections and ambiguities, the concept provides a much-needed middle path in the analysis of the regulation of international migration. One that enables, for instance, an adequately complex, and yet realistic, understanding of the current role of nation-states: neither almighty, undisputed actors, nor marginal, powerless ones.
