本文分析了2010年和2011年发生在整个意大利的一系列移民动员：罗萨诺的骚乱，3月1日的移民大罢工，在纳尔德尼亚的运动和罢工反对未申报的工作和在布雷西亚的建筑起重机的占领。Engin Isin的公民行为研究原则提供了一个理论背景，将其理解为新自由主义危机中一个连贯的新斗争周期。正如这些动员所证明的那样，当移民将自己塑造成积极的公民时，他们可以为打开新自由主义公民身份的界限作出重大贡献。此外，推翻一个排斥性、种族化和竞争性的社会模式可以成为移民和国民的共同目标，从而开辟一个基于平等享有权利、团结和真实的民主的替代性社会模式。
This article analyses a series of migrant mobilizations which took place in 2010 and 2011 throughout Italy: the unrest in Rosarno, the migrant general strikes on 1 March, the campaign and the strike against undeclared work in Nardò and the occupation of a construction crane in Brescia. Engin Isin's principles of investigating acts of citizenship provide a theoretical background for understanding them as a coherent, new cycle of struggles in the crisis of neoliberalism. As proved by those mobilizations, migrants can significantly contribute to open the boundaries of neoliberal citizenship, when they construct themselves as activist citizens. Moreover, the contestation of an exclusionary, racialized and competitive model of society can become a goal shared by migrants and nationals alike, opening up an alternative social model based on equal entitlements to rights, solidarity and real democracy.
