| Summary: | The Albanian immigrants but also other foreigners in Italy, at the beginning were faced with many difficulties trying to integrate into the new society, a phenomenon which is still a problem for some countries these days. Having been an immigrant myself in Italy (first generation) I wanted to reflect the problems of the second generation families and the society around them, comparing them with the Albanian immigration of the '400 both in culture and integration. How this generation is able to preserve their culture in comparison with the Albanians called “arberesh” and how is this society treated in legal terms (citizenship)? Why are they considered Italians de facto, as Graziella Favaro says, but although they were born and raised in Italy they are not referred to as nationals. This research is important not only for Albanians, but also for Moldovans, Moroccans, Romanians and many other foreigners from different countries who have the same problems. |
