AbstractItaly was the first Western country to be severely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Within it, immigrants have played an important role as essential workers and throughout solidarity initiatives. The present article is based on 64 in-depth interviews with immigrants who engaged in solidarity actions directed toward the immigrant population and the host society during the COVID-19 pandemic. Analytically, it emerged that through solidaristic initiatives, immigrants articulated what we called 'claims of recognition.' Recognition here is considered in both its individual form, as interpersonal acceptance and esteem for single immigrants, and its collective form, as the social regard of immigrant groups as constituents of Italian society. Despite being perhaps 'elementary,' these claims aim to fight forms of both non-recognition and mis-recognition that are pervasive in Italy and aim to transform the symbolic 'fabric' of this country.

Gesellschaftstheorie zielt darauf ab, die grundlegenden Strukturen und Dynamiken der modernen Gesellschaft hinsichtlich dessen zu erforschen, was sie zusammenhält, spaltet oder fragmentiert. Mit der vorliegenden Einführung wird Studierenden ein Lehrbuch an die Hand gegeben, das ihnen einen Einblick in die sozialwissenschaftliche Theoriebildung und die Hauptprobleme der Soziologie gibt. Entlang der Klassiker der Soziologie, ohne die der Sinngehalt und die Entwicklung des Faches nicht angemessen verstanden werden kann, will der Studienkurs Schneisen in ein unübersichtliches Gelände schlagen, in der Hoffnung, dass die angezeigten Wege und Pfade der soziologischen Erkenntnis von der interessierten Leserschaft weiterverfolgt und vertieft werden.
