The children of immigrants are growing and embarking on adult life. What are their expectations? With what qualifications do they face the world of work? What is their relationship with their origins? Above all, how does Italian society view them? Through the voices of the protagonists themselves, Second Generations on the Move in Italy: Children of Immigrants Coming of Age offers—by means of an analytical perspective and in constant comparison with the findings of international research—a view of second–generation immigrants’ life paths in Italy. The focus at city level contributes to understanding both turning points and key features of the “new Italians” and what major trials they (and society) will face. The outcome is a picture of a new young generation that will soon challenge Italian society.

Roberta Ricucci's book Second Generations on the Move in Italy: Children of Immigrants Coming of Age provides an instructive overview as well as an excellent approach and impressive new findings on the situation of Italy's adolescent group of second generation migrants. It clarifies the conditions of growing up and the opportunities and restrictions during adolescence. A very interesting and touching study!
