The Reception Industry, or the Commodification of the Reception of Asylum Seekers
The paper contributes to recent debates on the migration industry by exploring the increasing commodification of the reception of asylum seekers. This process of commodification is premised upon the growing relevance of economic interests in the management of asylum seekers, which is well encapsulated by the involvement of profit-seeking actors in the running of reception facilities. Drawing on semi-structured interviews with reception actors, which were collected in multiple contexts in Italy and in Sweden between 2015 and 2016, the paper shows how the commodification of reception paves the way to the creation of a reception industry in which profits prevail over humanitarian assistance. Two key dimensions of the reception industry are discussed. The first and core dimension of the industry concerns the management of reception facilities. The second dimension relates to reception’s linked activities and all the network of suppliers that are needed to ensure the functioning and maintenance of reception systems. The analysis of these two dimensions of the reception industry is used to make two arguments. The first concerns the gradual advancement of a market logic in the management of asylum seekers, according to which the final purpose of reception measures becomes profit instead of the support to the guests of accommodation centres. The second argument concerns the influence that private profit-making actors may exert on the design and implementation of reception measures, and the effects this has on the rights and treatment of asylum seekers.

Warehousing asylum seekers: The logistification of reception
Environment and Planning D: Society and Space, 2022
This article employs the analytical perspective of logistics to explore a key, yet quite overlooked, aspect of the functioning of the EU border regime: the reception and associated territorial distribution of newly arrived asylum seekers. Drawing on qualitative data collected at the height of 'refugee reception crisis' in multiple contexts in Italy and Sweden, the article shows how reception is undergoing a process of 'logistification'. In this process, organisational and logistical concerns prevail over the care for those who are assisted, and reception is turned into a logistical matter of moving and accommodating asylum seekers. Crucial to this process of 'logistification' is the warehousing of asylum seekers-an art of government that seeks to objectify asylum seekers through their depersonalisation, victimisation and (im)mobilisation. The article argues that the 'logistification' of reception not only has dehumanising effects on asylum seekers, but also exposes the attempt to make profit out their management and transfer. This creates the conditions for the development of a reception industry in which the very presence of asylum seekers is valorised for the profit of a whole range of actors who ensure the reproduction, transfer, knowledge and control of those hosted in reception facilities.
The Reception System for Asylum Seekers and Refugees in Italy: A Case of a New Total Institution?
2020
This article offers a critical reflection on the Italian reception system for asylum seekers and refugees, assessing how and to what extent it differs from “total institutions”. More specifically, the article focuses on ordinary reception centres (SPRARs) and emergency centres (CASs) in order to explore their organizational and structural aspects, as well as the staff involved. The first section provides an updated overview of the regulatory framework of the reception system between 2015 and 2018. We also present an analysis of the CAS tendering procedures published by the Prefetture of Florence, Siena and Arezzo. The second section focuses on the relation between “reception centre operators” and hosts. This reflection arises from qualitative research conducted in the metropolitan area of Florence in 2018. It included in-depth interviews with the head of the Central Service and four CAS facility contractors. In addition, we carried out participant observation in one centre. The stud...
Cooperating for Asylum Seekers and Refugees: Non-profit and public sector cooperation in the reception of asylum seekers and refugees
2015
The year 2014 was a record year in terms of refugee arrivals in Europe, as more than 260.000 migrants asked for international protection in the European member States, during the first six months of the year. The number of asylum seekers landing on the Italian coast increased significantly in 2014, reaching 112.000 people in August, compared to 42.000 in the whole of 2013. This sudden increase put a large strain on the resources of the Italian government to provide adequate facilities to meet the new arrivals needs. This thesis aims at presenting how the cooperation between the third sector (civil society) and the public sector enables the provision of a suitable reception for asylum seekers and refugees. For this purpose this work is mainly based on the theoretical conceptualization of "social-political governance" proposed by Kooiman. It has been assumed that co-arrangements between public sector and third sector emerge because of mutual interdependencies. Co-arrangements would allow to respond to dynamic, complex and diverse needs, and hierarchical elements in those co-arrangements would lead to an increase of bureaucracy, professionalization standardization of the co-arrangement. These assumptions have been verified by a qualitative analysis of the creation of the Sistema di Protezione per Richiedenti Asilo e Rifugiati (SPRAR) and its implementation in the context of Rome, where a case-study was conducted in October 2014. It has been found that the SPRAR, in general and hence also in Rome, can be considered as an institutionalized co-arrangement between the third and public sectors capable of responding to dynamic, complex and diverse needs of asylum seekers and refugees. The institutionalization of this system has led to the creation of standards, although homogeneity of the reception facilities is yet to be met. Bureaucratization and professionalization of involved third sector organizations has increased and made these organizations more accountable. Nevertheless, civil society keeps its dynamism and manages to create an indispensable support network in Rome, encouraging asylum seekers and refugees towards autonomy and integration. This study has shown that successful co-arrangements between the third and public sectors in the new policy field of refugee reception have brought about the creation of an innovative reception model in Italy that adequately responds to asylum seekers and refugees needs.
Humanitarian confinement. An ethnography of reception centres for asylum seekers at Europe’s southern border
This article presents the results of an empirical research carried out within Italian reception centres for asylum seekers. The article shows how reception centres can become a trap from which asylum seekers are no longer able to escape as they become victims of a process of social disempowerment making them dependent on the “humanitarian government.” This reproduction of dependence enables the reception system to carry out a subtle social control function, achieving the effect of confining asylum seekers within a concentrated place that can easily be controlled by the police. But this form of control is exercised even though the law does not provide any explicitly repressive means for keeping them under surveillance. So-called reception centres exert a centripetal force which is hard to resist, and which in a sense has an ability to trap asylum seekers more than any wall. The Italian reception system amounts to a form of “humanitarian confinement,” in that provides hospitality for asylum seekers, while subjecting them to a form of control enacted through humanitarian agents.
HOUSING FOR ASYLUM SEEKERS AND REFUGEES IN ROME: NON-PROFIT AND PUBLIC SECTOR COOPERATION IN THE RECEPTION SYSTEM IRPPS WP 86/2016
The paper intends to investigate the functioning of the reception of asylum seekers and refugees in the particular context of Rome. It is analysing the advantages and shortcomings of Rome’s recent adherence to the SPRAR (Sistema di protezione per richiedenti asilo e rifugiati) in terms of reception capacity and quality, capacity of integration and the building of networks of actors. The establishment of a new executive board in Rome and current judicial reports provide a background against which to assess the effects of national, regional and local regulations on asylum in Italy, also in view of possible change. In the first Chapter , we will discuss the interventions aimed at the applicants for protection in Italy. In the second part of the paper, we will analyse the specific context of Rome, and the forms of cooperation between the different actors involved in the SPRAR reception system of asylum seekers and refugees. The analysis is based on a research activity carried out in September and October 2014 in the context of a Masterthesis. The situation described is in constant development and might have evolved since.
National report on the governance of the asylum reception system in Italy
2019
The report provides an overview of the Italian reception system. After describing the initial design of the national governance of asylum seekers’ reception, it focuses on transformations of the reception system since 2011, when the Arab Spring started, paying specific attention to the decision-making process. After examining the formal organisation of reception policies in the country, the report explores the actual functioning of the reception system at the national and local levels (in the provinces of Turin and Treviso). Finally, policy outcomes are discussed with particular regard to trends of convergence and divergence in the implementation of reception policies and the contribution of monitoring activities to these processes. The report highlights the complexity of the Italian reception system, despite the repeated attempts of rationalisation and harmonisation. Concerning decision-making, three main periods are identified: 2011-2013, when an emergency approach prevailed; 2014...
Asylum in Crisis: Migrant Policy, Entrapment, and the Role of Non-Governmental Organisations in Siracusa, Italy
As a result of political and economic instability in Africa and the Middle East, Europe has experienced an unprecedented influx of migrants. Southern European nations have, in particular, seen substantial number of arrivals as a result of their geographic proximity to migrants' countries of origin. Siracusa, a city in south–eastern Sicily, has become a major point of activity and arrival for displaced persons. Based on six months of ethnographic research with migrants and non-governmental organisations conducted in refugee camps in Siracusa, Italy, in 2015, this article illuminates the asylum-seeking process, focusing on first reception centres. It argues that although the European Union has generally progressive refugee policies, their poor implementation in Siracusa has produced significant disjunctions between policy intentions and realities on the ground. This, in turn, generates a need for ever-growing involvement of non-governmental organisations to take on the provision of healthcare and legal services to migrants. Moreover, substandard conditions and legal stalemates entrap migrants in the temporary camps. This analysis is contextualised within neo-liberal economic policies in austerity era Europe. This article contributes to theoretical and ethnographic perspectives of migration in Southern Europe and illuminates concerns related to human rights and healthcare policy in the area.
