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 secord 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.
