Abstract

Italy acts as a migratory crossroads in which emigration, immigration, and internal migration continuously overlap. These processes have affected not only large cities, but also small towns such as Alte Ceccato (Veneto Region). After WWII this small industrial town received immigrants from the surrounding countryside, then from Southern Italy, and since the 1990s from the so-called Global South. Today it receives refugees from sub-Saharan Africa. Adopting the analytical tool of migratory stratification, we discuss Alte Ceccato as a peculiar example of the mixture of social, cultural, demographic and urban changes driven by migration on multiple geographical scales.
