Paolo Naso's 'Immigrato espiatorio' Explores Migration as Innate Human Drive

In 'Immigrato espiatorio,' Paolo Naso presents the view that migration is an inherent aspect of human history rather than a challenge. He points out the dual injustice experienced by marginalized migrants who are blamed for not assimilating. Naso examines human migration from ancient times to the present, highlighting that Italians have long pursued improved living conditions. He argues that diversity enhances our world and that migration should not be a contentious issue. The book critiques Italian political practices for generating contradictions in immigration and suggests that fear arises from a decline in curiosity. Naso calls for robust integration policies and notes that identity is an ongoing process, influenced by migration. Antonia De Francesco's review for MIfacciodiCultura describes the book as brief yet impactful.
