Drawing upon extensive data collected in Italy, it explores the profound role that alliances among pro-immigrant groups play in shaping political engagement, shedding light on the compelling questions of why and how immigrant activists mobilize in challenging environments, the strategic choices they make in forming alliances with specific white allies, and the factors that contribute to variations in the forms of political participation and grassroots mobilization at the local level.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEmploying a multi-disciplinary approach, the author examines the intricate dynamics between institutional and non-institutional actors, including immigrant activists, as they navigate and compete in the local arena over immigration and integration issues. Through the lens of social movement, critical race, and post-colonial theories, the book offers a valuable and novel insider perspective on political activism and the assertive claims-making of marginalized groups. Moreover, it demonstrates how pro-immigrant groups can contribute to the racialization of immigrant activists.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis comprehensive study examines the impact of coalitions, conflicts, and racialization processes on participation in social mobilization among pro-immigrant groups and immigrant activists. It appeals to scholars with a wide range of interests, including sociology, political science, and political sociology, who are passionate about migration, ethnic and racial relations, social movements, and local governance. By placing immigrant activists at the center of its analysis, this volume provides a rich and insightful exploration of the complex interplay between political participation, grassroots mobilization, and the broader social dynamics shaping immigrant communities in Europe.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 453g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 234 x 156 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781032200170\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TeresaCappiali","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44646878118138,"sku":"9781032200170","price":42.83,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1697219153617_book.jpg?v=1697576395","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/reframing-immigrant-resistance-alliances-conflicts-and-racialization-in-italy-9781032200170","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
