- Abstract
Gli antropologi, a fronte di una spiccata riflessività in merito alla metodologia di ricerca e alle forme di restituzione del proprio lavoro, si sono raramente interrogati a proposito delle prospettive pedagogiche e alle strategie didattiche che dovrebbero connotare l’insegnamento accademico della disciplina. Il presente articolo, dopo aver ricostruito una genealogia dei principali contributi che negli Stati Uniti e in Europa hanno provato a delineare teorie e pratiche per l’insegnamento dell’antropologia, presenta un esempio di sperimentazione didattica condotta dall’autore attraverso la strategia delle “uscite sul territorio” nell’ambito di un laboratorio di antropologia delle migrazioni. Si discute quindi l’approccio pedagogico sotteso a tale caso studio, connettendo la concezione di “antropologia come esperienza” di Victor Turner al pensiero di John Dewey e alla pedagogia fenomenologica di Piero Bartolini.

- Abstract
Weaning is the biocultural process of introducing solid food at the end of the infant’s nursing phase during early infancy. Anthropologists collected extensive ethnographic examples of weaning practices in different societies, although a comprehensive, comparative analysis on the subject is still to be accomplished. In this article, the author proposes to take a step in the direction of an “anthropology of weaning” by bringing together the traditions of studies on nutrition and childhood and focusing his interest on the transformations of infant feeding related to the experience of migration. After introducing the weaning process from an anthropopoietic perspective, the article presents a critical analysis of some interviews collected thanks to an interdisciplinary project developed in Turin, involving a team of anthropologists and paediatricians. The conclusions of the contribution concern the interweaving of cultural, social, economic and political aspects that influence the change of weaning practices in immigrant families.

- Abstract
Albania boasts three World Heritage Sites: the Butrint National Park and the Historic Centres of Berat and Gjirokastra. This article critically presents the history of these sites during the period of the Italian occupation, the subsequent dictatorship of Enver Hoxha and the so-called «post-socialist transition». The research hypothesis is that the concepts of mobility/immobility can be an original key to investigate the link between cultural heritage and totalitarianism in the Albanian context. The result of the analysis shows how the process of patrimonialization in contemporary Albania, while challenging the patrimonial policies implemented by Fascism and Communism in the XX century, recovers some elements, reworking their meaning with the intention of defining the new tourist image of the country. The study is based on the analysis of documents preserved by the National Historical Archive of Tirana and on an ethnographic fieldwork carried out in Butrint, Berat and Gjirokastra.

Il Mediterraneo è stato storicamente attraversato da molteplici forme di mobilità, che hanno contribuito a definirne l’identità e la specificità come area culturale, sociale, economica e politica. Nella nostra contemporaneità, turismo e migrazioni sono emerse come forme emblematiche delle trasformazioni prodotte dalla connessione tra scala locale e globale. Il mio contributo, di taglio antropologico e fondato su un lavoro di campo di tipo etnografico, si concentra sul caso delle isole greche dell’Egeo settentrionale e in particolare su Lesbo, un luogo divenuto simbolo delle tensioni tra politiche securitarie e pratiche umanitarie nella gestione delle migrazioni nel Mediterraneo. Partendo da una riflessione critica sui concetti di ospitalità e di confine, l’articolo analizza le diverse dimensione dell’incontro tra gli abitanti dell’isola, i migranti che vi approdano giungendo via mare dalle coste turche e i turisti che vi si recano per le loro vacanze. Si tratta di incontri segnati da “sguardi” fortemente strutturati e politicizzati, capaci di costruire categorie e gerarchie che rendono reciprocamente (in)visibili i diversi soggetti che si muovono sull’isola. Tuttavia, Lesbo offre anche interessanti esempi di trasgressione e superamento di tali “confini dell’invisibilità”, mostrando come le categorie di host e guest siano in realtà più ambigue e fluide di come vengano rappresentate dal discorso pubblico e politico dominante. Nell’analizzare una serie di “incontri trasformativi” tra locali, turisti e migranti, l’articolo sostiene la necessità di interrogare criticamente quelle esperienze di scambio, condivisione e convivialità che paiono indicare una comune aspirazione a vivere insieme “nella differenza”., Scritture migranti, N. 13 (2019): Turismo e migrazione

Gli studi sulla mobilità possono fornire un utile approccio per interpretare le connessioni tra migrazioni e turismo che caratterizzano numerosi contesti mediterranei. Alcune località insulari che fondano la propria sussistenza economica sull’attrattività turistica, negli ultimi anni sono infatti divenute luogo di approdo e transito di significativi flussi migratori. Il contributo si concentra sul caso di Lampedusa, attraverso una ricerca etnografica volta a indagare il ruolo svolto dalla mobilità nelle successive fasi storiche di trasformazione sociale, culturale ed economica dell’isola. Studiando i processi di patrimonializzazione in atto, con particolare riferimento al locale culto della Madonna di Porto Salvo, si intende mettere in luce le modalità attraverso cui le migrazioni sono state integrate nel patrimonio culturale di Lampedusa e sono divenute parte costitutiva della sua immagine turistica. Mobility studies can provide a fruitful approach to understand the relationship between migration and tourism in many Mediterranean contexts. Some islands that rely on tourism for their economic survival have in recent years become a place of transit and reception of significant migration flows. This contribution focuses on the case of Lampedusa, through an ethnographic research aimed at investigating the role played by mobility in the subsequent historical periods of social, cultural and economic transformation of the island. By studying the processes of heritage-making underway, with particular reference to the local cult of Our Lady of Porto Salvo, the aim is to highlight the ways in which migrations have been integrated into the cultural heritage of Lampedusa and have become a constitutive part of its tourist image.

- Abstract
The relationship between social remittances, integration patterns and intergenerational transmission has been the subject of several studies across Europe. This article aims to explore the complex links between migration, social inclusion abroad and social remittances between several generations of Moldovan migrants in Italy. The production of social remittances incorporates many variables: the exposure to remittances migrants had during their childhood in Moldova, the family relationships and the degree of involvement in collective initiatives. We took into consideration three dimensions: remittances’ directionality, including reverse social remittances, the role in the exchange (sender or receiver) and the intensity of exposure/involvement. Our analysis indicates that there is a difference in transnational behaviours between the first migrants and the new generation. Parents are often trapped in occupational and socially segregated niches, while their children have opportunities to develop greater social mobility and to strengthen cosmopolitan affiliations. Young people raised in Italy, compared to their parents, have more opportunities for meaningful social contacts that can be translated into innovative ideas in Moldova.

- Abstract
Quando, a un anno dalla scomparsa di Ugo Fabietti, abbiamo cominciato a lavorare a un numero della rivista Antropologia a lui dedicato, ci siamo chiesti come essergli fedeli e come trasmettere attraverso queste pagine le sue qualità intellettuali e affettive di collega, amico e maestro, mantenendo integri la vita- lità e il potenziale euristico della sua eredità intellettuale. La rivista è stata fon- data da Ugo Fabietti nel 2001 come “progetto culturale (...) per riflettere in maniera pertinente, approfondita e circonstanziata sulle forme culturali della contemporaneità”. Ugo Fabietti l’ha diretta e trasformata, nel 2014, da colla- na di saggi tematici sull’antropologia della contemporaneità in pubblicazione a consultazione gratuita online con un sistema di revisione in doppio cieco. Negli anni Ugo Fabietti ha formato e si è formato con molte delle persone che vi hanno lavorato e vi lavorano, ha trovato i mezzi per fabbricarla e si è speso perché continuasse a vivere dentro alle continue trasformazioni dell’editoria scientifica degli ultimi anni. Come restituire un frammento del suo imponen- te lavoro intellettuale fatto di idee, passioni, affetti e senso pratico?

Sumaj p’unchay, imaynalla k’asankiri! Con queste parole in lingua quechua il 20 giugno 2018 Angie dà il benvenuto a un gruppo di venti persone ritrovatesi per celebrare la Giornata Mondiale del Rifugiato. Nel cuore di via Padova, “la via più multiculturale di Milano”, come la definisce Angie, ma anche “la via più problematica di Milano”, come la definiscono i giornali, Angie, accompagnatrice interculturale originaria di Santa Cruz, città boliviana a ridosso del confine brasiliano, parla a cittadini milanesi di migrazioni passate e presenti, di Santa Sarita di Colonia e dei bagni di sole del Parco Trotter, di Islam, di culti religiosi andini e di patate fatte essiccare al gelo delle montagne boliviane.

- Abstract
The phenomenon of social remittances has been investigated by authors of a vast literature who have also subjected to critical analysis the link between migration and development. The present paper explores the case of the Republic of Moldova in the context of south-eastern Europe, a region characterized by consolidated emigration that has generated a great flow of financial and social remittances over the years. Through multi-location research conducted in Italy and in Moldova, our goal is to analyse social remittances at the level of 'ideas' and the level of 'practices', discussing the conditions that have produced socioeconomic change in the localities of departure. This will show how this change does not always reflect the model of economic and social development sustained by international organizations and the European Union in the Eastern Partnership area.

18. “Farsi prossimi”. Potenzialità e criticità dell’accoglienza diffusa dei rifugiati nella rete Diocesana Italiana ['Act as a neighbour'. An ethnographic survey on the reception projects for asylum seekers and refugees implemented by the Catholic Church in Italy]

- Abstract
L’articolo presenta i risultati di un’indagine etnografica relativa ai progetti di accoglienza di richiedenti asilo e rifugiati messi in atto dalla Chiesa Cattolica in Italia, nel caso specifico della Diocesi di Torino. Si tratta di un’accoglienza diffusa, realizzata per lo più da parrocchie dislocate in comuni medio-piccoli della provincia, che pone numerosi interrogativi rispetto al rapporto tra migranti, territorio e società ospitante. Le interviste e le osservazioni raccolte sul campo permettono al contempo di sviluppare una più ampia riflessione sulle ambiguità della “ragione umanitaria”, nei termini concepiti da Didier Fassin., This article presents the results of an ethnographic survey on the reception projects for asylum seekers and refugees implemented by the Catholic Church in Italy, in the specific case of the Diocese of Turin. It is a kind of ‘widespread reception’, mostly carried out by parishes in small and medium-sized municipalities of the Turin province, which raises many questions regarding the relationship between migrants, the territory and hosting society. Interviews and field-notes collected during the research can contribute to develop a broader reflection on the ambiguities of "humanitarian reason", in the terms conceived by Didier Fassin.

- Abstract
Sono i migranti a incarnare nel modo più pieno, e spesso drammatico, tutta la complessità e le contraddizioni del mondo globale contemporaneo. Nell’affrontare il tema delle migrazioni, la ricerca etnografica ha un ruolo importante perché dà voce agli attori coinvolti studiandone le traiettorie di vita. Nel corso degli anni l’etnografia delle migrazioni ha suscitato un ampio dibattito sui processi di globalizzazione e le dinamiche transnazionali, sviluppando un insieme di pratiche di ricerca per affrontare le diverse dimensioni della mobilità umana. Il volume delinea i principali temi e ambiti di ricerca di questo campo di studi, con particolare attenzione al contesto italiano, proponendosi come un’aggiornata introduzione al panorama degli studi antropologici e sociologici sulle migrazioni contemporanee.

The clinical efficacy of SLIT has been established in a number of clinical trials and meta-analyses. However, because SLIT is self-administered by patients without medical supervision, the degree of patient adherence with treatment is still a concern. The objective of this study was to evaluate the perception by allergists of issues related to SLIT adherence.Methods: We performed a questionnaire-based survey of 296 Italian allergists, based on the adherence issues known from previous studies. The perception of importance of each item was assessed by a VAS scale ranging from 0 to 10.Results: Patient perception of clinical efficacy was considered the most important factor (ranked 1 by 54% of allergists), followed by the possibility of reimbursement (ranked 1 by 34%), and by the absence of side effects (ranked 1 by 21%). Patient education, regular follow-up, and ease of use of SLIT were ranked first by less than 20% of allergists.Conclusion: These findings indicate that clinical efficacy, cost, and side effects are perceived as the major issues influencing patient adherence to SLIT, and that further improvement of adherence is likely to be achieved by improving the patient information provided by prescribers.Keywords: adherence, sublingual immunotherapy, efficacy, cost, side effects

The aims of this study were to test inter-observer and intraobserver agreement in the diagnosis of silicosis using conventional chest radiography and AMBER. One hundred and fifteen patients underwent chest x-rays and AMBER for the diagnosis of silicosis. Five readers blindly and independently evaluated the radiograms with standard ILO/UC classification scales. Reproducibility was assessed using ANOVA repeated measurements methods. AMBER showed a better technical quality of radiograms than conventional chest x-rays; interobserver reproducibility was high and similar (R = 0.75); intraobserver agreement between chest x-rays and AMBER was high ranging from 0.62 to 0.86 for the 5 readers. Notwithstanding the absence of standards for profusion classification, the interobserver reproducibility with AMBER was similar to that obtained with chest x-rays. Moreover, the intraobserver agreement in profusion scoring between AMBER and chest radiography was high, suggesting that AMBER and chest radiography provided similar information in the evaluation of silicosis.

The phenomenon of social remittances has been investigated by authors of a vast literature who have also subjected to critical analysis the link between migration and development. The present paper explores the case of the Republic of Moldova in the context of south-eastern Europe, a region characterized by consolidated emigration that has generated a great flow of financial and social remittances over the years. Through multi-location research conducted in Italy and in Moldova, our goal is to analyse social remittances at the level of 'ideas' and the level of 'practices', discussing the conditions that have produced socioeconomic change in the localities of departure. This will show how this change does not always reflect the model of economic and social development sustained by international organizations and the European Union in the Eastern Partnership area.

The relationship between social remittances, integration patterns and intergenerational transmission has been the subject of several studies across Europe. This article aims to explore the complex links between migration, social inclusion abroad and social remittances between several generations of Moldovan migrants in Italy. The production of social remittances incorporates many variables: the exposure to remittances migrants had during their childhood in Moldova, the family relationships and the degree of involvement in collective initiatives. We took into consideration three dimensions: remittances’ directionality, including reverse social remittances, the role in the exchange (sender or receiver) and the intensity of exposure/involvement. Our analysis indicates that there is a difference in transnational behaviours between the first migrants and the new generation. Parents are often trapped in occupational and socially segregated niches, while their children have opportunities to develop greater social mobility and to strengthen cosmopolitan affiliations. Young people raised in Italy, compared to their parents, have more opportunities for meaningful social contacts that can be translated into innovative ideas in Moldova.

Quando, a un anno dalla scomparsa di Ugo Fabietti, abbiamo cominciato a lavorare a un numero della rivista Antropologia a lui dedicato, ci siamo chiesti come essergli fedeli e come trasmettere attraverso queste pagine le sue qualità intellettuali e affettive di collega, amico e maestro, mantenendo integri la vita- lità e il potenziale euristico della sua eredità intellettuale. La rivista è stata fon- data da Ugo Fabietti nel 2001 come “progetto culturale (...) per riflettere in maniera pertinente, approfondita e circonstanziata sulle forme culturali della contemporaneità”. Ugo Fabietti l’ha diretta e trasformata, nel 2014, da colla- na di saggi tematici sull’antropologia della contemporaneità in pubblicazione a consultazione gratuita online con un sistema di revisione in doppio cieco. Negli anni Ugo Fabietti ha formato e si è formato con molte delle persone che vi hanno lavorato e vi lavorano, ha trovato i mezzi per fabbricarla e si è speso perché continuasse a vivere dentro alle continue trasformazioni dell’editoria scientifica degli ultimi anni. Come restituire un frammento del suo imponen- te lavoro intellettuale fatto di idee, passioni, affetti e senso pratico?

L’articolo presenta i risultati di un’indagine etnografica relativa ai progetti di accoglienza di richiedenti asilo e rifugiati messi in atto dalla Chiesa Cattolica in Italia, nel caso specifico della Diocesi di Torino. Si tratta di un’accoglienza diffusa, realizzata per lo più da parrocchie dislocate in comuni medio-piccoli della provincia, che pone numerosi interrogativi rispetto al rapporto tra migranti, territorio e società ospitante. Le interviste e le osservazioni raccolte sul campo permettono al contempo di sviluppare una più ampia riflessione sulle ambiguità della “ragione umanitaria”, nei termini concepiti da Didier Fassin. This article presents the results of an ethnographic survey on the reception projects for asylum seekers and refugees implemented by the Catholic Church in Italy, in the specific case of the Diocese of Turin. It is a kind of ‘widespread reception’, mostly carried out by parishes in small and medium-sized municipalities of the Turin province, which raises many questions regarding the relationship between migrants, the territory and hosting society. Interviews and field-notes collected during the research can contribute to develop a broader reflection on the ambiguities of "humanitarian reason", in the terms conceived by Didier Fassin.

- Abstract
Background: The Piedmont Region, the Food Hygiene and Nutrition Services of the Local Healthcare Authorities of the Piedmont Region (coordinated by ASL TO 3), and the Italian Coeliac Association Piedmont Onlus, have created a theoretical-practical training pathway for Food Business Operators to ensure a safe gluten-free meal., Study Design: The aim of the study is to perform a retrospective analysis of the data collected in order to assess whether the Food Business Operators will be able to manage in the short, medium and long term audits (3-month audits, 6-month audits and 1-year audits) all the production stages of a gluten-free meal (storage, production., Methods: We have analysed the check-list used for assessing the gluten free meal, recorded from 2010 to 2016 by the staff of the Food Hygiene and Nutrition Services. They were filled out during three educational audits and they refer to 81 facilities., Results: Two-hundred and forty-three audits were conducted (3 per facility). During all stages of production of gluten-free meals (short, medium and long term), non-compliant aspects had decreased (not statistically significant). The data analysis showed a slight increase in non-compliant aspects after a 1-year storage, the trend of non-compliant aspects slightly decreased during the three production stages, the service stage registered a slight upward trend, and finally, during the basic requirements stage and control plan stage, non-compliant aspects were in sharp decline (statistically significant)., Conclusions: The decrease of non-compliance guarantees safety and protection of the celiac subject, even if storage and services must be monitored more carefully in the medium term.

- Abstract
Introduction: The Law 123/2005 recognizes celiac disease as a social disease and so Ministry of Public Health annually allocates specific resources to Regions for managing gluten-free meals in school canteens. Therefore in 2009 Piedmont Region approved a specific project, in collaboration with Food Hygiene and Nutrition Department (SIAN) of several ASL (Local Health Authority), including ASL TO3 as regional leader, and the "Italian Celiac Association - Piedmont and Valle d'Aosta". This project was intended to facilitate the natural integration of celiac people in social life. A retrospective analysis of data has been carried out to assess the management of gluten- free meal of school food services in Piedmont Region in 2010. Furthermore the intervention efficacy has been evaluated comparing the critical points observed in 2010 and 2012., Methods: The object of the study includes primary and secondary schools that have provided gluten-free food service in Piedmont Region. These school were examined by SIAN staff. (the examination included the check of hygienic aspects and qualitative assessment of the meal). The data were collected using the same checklist throughout the region. All data were included in the unified regional system ("Reteunitaria")., Results: The results show that 29% of the sampled schools (277) are acceptable in all eight sections (supply, storage, process analysis, equipment check, packaging and transport, distribution of meals, self-control plan and qualitative assessment), whereas 71% are inadequate for at least one of the profiles (60% does not perform the qualitative valuation of service) and in 18% of schools three to seven insufficiencies are observed. Correlations between the number of total insufficiencies and the most critical sections of the check list were performed (with lower scores in "good") such as process analysis, distribution of meals, self-control plan and qualitative assessment. The analysis process has achieved a high score in the field of deficiency for at least 3 parameters. Schools with a good self-control plan have a significant correlation with schools suitable for the analysis process, instead schools appeared insufficient in the process analysis have an increased chance of being insufficient also in the distribution of meals. The schools that provide a transported meal (municipalities highly populated, generally) have many differences in distribution of meals respect schools that prepare food in the school kitchen. In fact, 88% of school that provide a transported meal achieved an appropriate score in distribution of meals section and collected fewer failures in overall assessment than the others. 120 structures are included in the indirect comparison between the checklist's sections with criticisms, during years 2010 and 2012: in 2010 32% of schools were recorded acceptable in all of the eight sections of the checklist and in 2012 this percentage rose to 54%. An improvement can be observed in all areas, but a statistical significant result do not turn out., Discussion and Conclusions: Data show that carry on the control activities of production of gluten free meal in school canteens would be appropriate. Actions focused on improving the methods of preparing meal without gluten were recommended, especially in under populated municipalities with school kitchen on site. The constant presence of ASL staff in school has promoted important changes: cultural change and about the management of allergy and food intolerance. An improvement can be observed: a transition from a suspicion about "special diet" management to an appropriate and responsible management of meals for children and young people suffering from this specific condition.

Introduction: In recent years, the increase of the consumption of supplements reveals problems concerning the safety of use. Current legislation states that supplements must be free of any therapeutic purpose and must have quality guarantees for the users' safety. The operators of the of Hygiene, Food and Nutrition Service (SIAN) of ASL TO 3 (province of Turin) conducted a surveillance in order to asses the situation on the territory, to know the use and consumption in local gyms. During the official control at the manufacturers / packers of supplements, located on the territory of the ASL TO 3, labels of supplement produced / packed were acquired, to analyze the components indicated, to carry out a deep evaluation of the individual product ., Methods: Updating of the register of companies located in the territory of the ASL TO 3 was carried out; and during the period October 2011-March 2013 the labels of the products of these companies have been found and analyzed. The detailed content of the labels (ingredients, dose, method of recruitment, composition, etc. ..) was written in a database. It was also checked how many local gyms marketed supplements, and, in a small sample, a questionnaire was administered to visitors, in order to assess consumption., Results: 355 labels were acquired and loaded on the database. 80% of them falls within the category of supplements based on ingredients derived from plants or similar. For these products was evaluated the presence on the label of not allowed plant extracts (according to the Ministerial Decree of 9 July 2012): only 2 products (of the same company) contained an ingredient not allowed. In all the examined labels was evaluated the presence of the substances for which there are specific warnings: 97% of the label is compliant and 3% are not in compliance. In the analyzed products the indications for use mainly found on the labels are related to increased demand and/or reduced intake, followed by antioxidant action. The study also evaluated the sale of supplements at gyms located on the territory of ASLTO3: 59 gyms are available on territory, but only in one of them supplements are sold. Some customers of these gyms have filled a questionnaire concerning the consumption of supplements. The processing of the questionnaires showed that 27% of respondents in the past 2 years used only occasionally food supplements. For 42% of the subjects the use of these products was to achieve weight loss, for 33% for athletes and 17% have used specific products in the case of particular physiological situations such as pregnancy and lactation. The reasons that lead to the use of dietary supplements, in all cases, are attributed to the improvement of health status. In addition, in 50% of cases the pharmacist has led to the use of these products or, alternatively, friends and relatives. The general practitioner is often not informed even in case of disturbances introduced after their use (seen in 8% of our sample). The majority of the sample (58%) said that they had benefited from the use of supplements and they are aware (68%) that there could be contraindications., Conclusions: A greater knowledge of the topic, with attention focused on the entire supply chain of the product, is essential to ensure the safety of consumers in the use of food supplements. For these reasons a more detailed check on the procedure is essential: selection and verification of suppliers (especially for raw materials coming from Eastern countries, because they are not subjected to a thorough inspection); traceability of products marketed; correspondence between manufactured and authorized products. Finally, promote an awareness campaign at all levels is necessary, including general practitioners for a conscious purchase.

- Abstract
The aims of this study were to test inter-observer and intraobserver agreement in the diagnosis of silicosis using conventional chest radiography and AMBER. One hundred and fifteen patients underwent chest x-rays and AMBER for the diagnosis of silicosis. Five readers blindly and independently evaluated the radiograms with standard ILO/UC classification scales. Reproducibility was assessed using ANOVA repeated measurements methods. AMBER showed a better technical quality of radiograms than conventional chest x-rays; interobserver reproducibility was high and similar (R = 0.75); intraobserver agreement between chest x-rays and AMBER was high ranging from 0.62 to 0.86 for the 5 readers. Notwithstanding the absence of standards for profusion classification, the interobserver reproducibility with AMBER was similar to that obtained with chest x-rays. Moreover, the intraobserver agreement in profusion scoring between AMBER and chest radiography was high, suggesting that AMBER and chest radiography provided similar information in the evaluation of silicosis.
