Operativizzare il capitale sociale degli immigrati e delle organizzazioni degli immigrati
In: Sociologia e politiche sociali, Heft 1, S. 105-121
ISSN: 1972-5116
The theoretical disorientation concerning the concept of social capital is contrasted with its application to the study of a rich variety of empirical phenomena. Methodologically, social capital has been usefully employed at various analytical levels, micro, meso and macro. The goal of this essay is to emphasize the modalities used to operationalize this concept in the immigration field and so to discuss its impact on immigrants' political integration. Analytically, we will consider two dimensions related to social capital: structure and relationship. Empirically, we will present immigrants' social capital both with respect to its meso level dimension concerning immigrants' organizations and with respect to its individual dimension.

Political Context, Organizational Engagement, and Protest in African Countries
In: Mobilization: An International Quarterly, Band 16, Heft 3, S. 351-368
This article analyzes levels of protest mobilization in eighteen African countries—by far the region least studied by researchers of protest dynamics. Theoretically, its goal is to integrate the role of organizational engagement into political opportunity approaches to protest mobilization. Empirically, it uses African data to test whether Western-driven theories provide useful insights for analyzing protest dynamics in developing countries. The analysis yields three major findings: (1) the more open and democratic the political context, the more individuals mobilize, although the impact of the political opportunity structure in repressive contexts is less certain; (2) the more individuals are engaged in organizations, excluding religious organizations, the more they mobilize; (3) the impact of individual organizational engagement on the probability of mobilizing in protests does not change across contexts.

Ethnic and immigrant politics vs. mainstream politics: the role of ethnic organizations in shaping the political participation of immigrant-origin individuals in Europe
The file associated with this record is under an 18-month embargo from publication in accordance with the publisher's self-archiving policy. The full text may be available through the publisher links provided above. ; Previous scholarship has reported contradictory results regarding the impact of involvement by immigrant-origin individuals (IOIs) in ethnic organizations on political participation. In this article, we assess the effect of involvement in different types of organizations (ethnic, pan-immigrant and native) on participation in various types of political activities. We use cross-national micro-data from a population survey undertaken in 2004–2008 to IOIs in nine European cities. Our findings indicate that ethnic organizations perform an integrative function for IOIs in the political sphere, but they mainly affect participation linked to immigration-related issues concerning specific ethnic groups and IOIs. Moreover, most effects of involvement in ethnic organizations on the different types of political participation examined are similar in closed and in open political opportunity structures (POS). We only find evidence that involvement in ethnic organizations depresses conventional political action in open POS settings while it increases political action in closed POS settings. ; Peer-reviewed ; Post-print
