Diaspora ellenica in Italia: micro-luoghi e grecità

This paper is the result of a larger research project that had the phenomenon
of contemporary Greek diaspora in Italy as its object of study. In
light of the lacking and fragmented literature on that argument, the author
attempts to fill this scientific gap, making a contribution to the studies on
the Greek diaspora abroad. In a field research on Greek second generation
in Italy, among the issues covered is how Greek second generation
members relate to the Hellenic institutions and 'sites of belonging' in Italy,
by investigating the ways in which they use their ethnic resources and
define their Greek identity.
