*International Conference on Migration and Welfare Rome (Italy) 11th and
12th May 2016Organized by: CIRET - Interuniversity Research Centre “Ezio
Tarantelli”*
*Call for papers*
The increasing migration inflows toward Western countries have ignited a
heated political debate worldwide. As a matter of facts, the research of a
common plan to manage the massive immigration flows of economic migrants as
well as asylum seekers and refugees that are crossing the European
frontiers is one of the most compelling issues on which the EU countries
have to interact. In this discussion, a view supporting the protection of
local communities oppose to a view in favour of solidarity. The academic
research has already contributed to the debate, but new perspectives and
solutions are needed. The aim of the conference is to discuss innovative
studies in the field of welfare, labour market, social preferences and
protection of social rights.
Examples of questions addressed in the conference are the following:
• How do welfare policies cope with immigration?
• Are welfare policies changed along to cushion migration inflows or are
they modified in order to discriminate foreigners to reduce the country’s
attractiveness and the impact on the public budget? • How do labour markets
react to such exogenous shocks?
• Which is the most affected group of the local population in the
destination country and how are the political preferences influenced?
• To what extent EU and Member States legal systems provide for an adequate
protection of human and social rights?
The conference will bring together scholars from various disciplines and
fields presenting the results of the ongoing research on migration and
welfare and will favour an open debate. Submission of papers by economists,
lawyers and political scientists on those or strictly related questions
especially from young researchers are welcome. The leading language will be
English, but papers in Italian are also accepted.
