• Sommario/riassunto: This book, edited by Francesca Fauri and Debora Mantovani, explores the historical and contemporary challenges of migration between ; Europe and the Americas. It delves into the experiences of Italian migrants in Latin America, their impact on business and culture, and the role of remittances. The book also examines European immigrants in the United States and the dynamics of modern migration policies, such as the UK-Rwanda asylum partnership.
