Abstract
Since the beginning of the 21st century, Italy has been experiencing an increase of immigration from the South of the world that made it one of the most affected countries by global migrations, alongside with France, the United Kingdom, Spain and Germany1. At the same time, Italians are living in a climate of growing social tension due to the economic and labour crisis of the Great recession. In this social context – characterized by precarious work and declining social benefits – citizens tend to perceive immigrants as a threat to their welfare.
