The article illustrates the method of the Su.Per. project ( Success in educational pathways of students with immigrant background), based on autobiographies of successful students with an immigrant background, attending upper secondary education in Northern Italy. The methodological choice of the project is inspired by ‘The Polish Peasant’ by Thomas and Znaniecki and highlights the importance of using the biographical approach to understand unexpected and atypical situations – such as success stories of vulnerable students. Within this approach, autobiography represents a reflexive and imaginative ‘exercise’ to observe, in a non-prescriptive manner, the intertwining between actor and structure, human creativity and tradition, innovation and conservation, predestined and unexpected paths. Finally, the fruitfulness of this method is shown presenting some results deriving from the Su.Per. project. Writing their ‘educational autobiographies’, disadvantaged students build plural narrative of success – oriented to performance, good relationships, cooperation, etc. –, in which it is possible to discover new horizons and meanings of the success, and (perhaps) a renewed role for social scientists in analysing and imagining a less unequal future.

Definition of the situation, the core concept of Symbolic interactionism, sometimes erroneously confused with Merton’s self-fulfilling prophecy, is often overlooked both in sociological theorization and in everyday life. Since human beings tend to believe in the existence of a solid, incontrovertible reality, they do not put themselves in the role of others to know their definitions of the situation; consequently, misunderstandings and suffering arise. Being often obscure, difficult to grasp and remote from the men and women it studies, sociological theory that could help to improve social life often remains in textbooks. As social sciences and good literature have the same object of interest - human beings and their relationships - a better formulation and better understanding of sociological theorizations could be obtained by linking them to novels, short stories and plays. Narratives could clarify sociological concepts and highlight their potentialities. I have focused here on two episodes, one taken from Mark Twain’s The Adventures of Tom Sawyer , the other from Elizabeth von Arnim’s The Pastor’s Wife , that let us see how the same object can be defined in opposite ways. Subsequently, I have highlighted how the contributions of Proust and Pirandello, two authors who look at reality with a symbolic interactionist gaze, could help in better understanding the dramatic power and the fragility of the definitions that give sense to human behavior and human existence.

In 2016 I conducted a study on the images of migrants, interviewing 100 people living in a small Sicilian town. We used a tool that I created ad hoc , inspired by the Sentence Completion Test. Subjects were asked to complete 44 incomplete sentences. Here are some examples: About immigrants I like... , The ethnic groups I know are... , Immigrants think that we Italians are, Romanian women... , etc. The analysis can be carried out with both quantitative procedures– classifying the completions of each sentence – both qualitative, like in this investigation, interpreting protocol by protocol the completions of each subject also in the light of the same subject’s completions of the other sentences. The results obtained encourage us to consider the instrument used as valid: for the most part it does not offer pre-established meanings and it seems effective in detecting deeply internalized values. Two of the problems that have emerged regard the alarm about the danger of dissolving our culture and traditions, and the unpleasant impression of stubborn attitudes of isolation and the reluctance of foreigners to integrate in the context of acceptance. Regarding attitudes towards foreign women, it has emerged that Romanian women appear enterprising, strong, free, and ‘breadwinners’ – they deviate from the classic female model and therefore cause concern; unlike Muslim women, who are considered to be weak and submissive. As for the words to be used, what emerged suggests the term ‘migrant’ rather than ‘immigrant’ should be used because the former promotes empathy and identification. Moreover, the term ‘foreigner’ should be preferred to ‘non-EU national’ because the latter probably arouses a greater sense of foreignness and distance and therefore is a little more threatening.

This paper aims to point out that the publication of the five volumes by Thomas and Znaniecki The Polish Peasant in Europe and America opened new scenarios, and gave its fundamental contribution in authorising a new way of conducting researches, which voluntarily distances from the ‘scientistic logic’ to recognise the heuristic-interpretative value of narration, though without denying the usefulness of the quantitative approach. That being stated, the specific purpose of this paper is twofold: focusing on the heuristic-interpretative value of narration while reconstructing, at the same time, the common thread that, starting from The Polish Peasant in Europe and America , connects apparently distant texts and authors stimulating a reflection on the development of empirical research and on its future.

Some of the most significant growth of the field of sociology and the use of social analysis were realized outside the university setting, and before the institutionalization of sociology within these institutions, thanks to a myriad of women researchers, settlement representatives, religious and industrial philanthropists. At that time, within academia, Thomas and Zaniecki’s The Polish Peasant became the first great theoretical and empirical work, whose leading author was expelled from the university by way of a too conservative institution and contradictory ethical evaluations.

This presentation is related to three aspects of the sociological theory of Florian Znaniecki and William Thomas: the concept of ethnic relations and immigrants attitudes in diaspora situation as well as the concept of recreate and building of an ethnic community. The main problem tackled in the paper can be narrowed down to the question: whether and how is the system of social relationships between different ethnic groups transferred into a migration situation? Relations between Polish and Ukrainian immigrants will be use as an example. What guides this paper is trading these realtions in the sphere of everyday life in one of New York’s Lower Manhattan neighborhoods – East Village, where Polish and Ukrainian ethnic community in New York City formed in the second half of the 19 th century. The text portrays the community eastablished by the immigrants, and especially its past and the character of Polish-Ukrainian neighborhood, which, as it turns out, resembles Polish-Ukrainian in the European borderland. In the analysis particular attention will be focus on microsocial determinants of mutual relationships as well as on the various elements of interethnic relations, including: spheres of cooperation, conflict areas, daily interactions, ethnic distance, mutual perceptions, etc. The text will give a short outline of the process of shaping and functioning of the ethnic community, its character, as well as the processes of changes of the ethnic community.

The paper deals with the dimensions of social capital in the Slovak Republic. The aim is to assess how social capital is distributed socially among the citizens of the Slovak Republic and geographically among the regions of the country. Social capital is evaluated on a basis of the three dimensions, where networks, trust and civism belong. The paper analyses the data from the European Values Study survey, especially the 2008 wave. The results of this study show that social capital has kept a decreasing tendency in the Slovak Republic throughout the period from the year 1991 to the year 2008. The reasons behind this may lie in the historical development of the country – the transformation of the economy and the dissolution of the Czech and Slovak Federative Republic. With respect to a social distribution, social capital is generally higher among more educated, right-wing Slovaks with higher earnings. In the terms of a geographical distribution, the Trnava Region and the Trencin Region appear to have less developed social capital compared to the other regions in Slovak Republic.

Tourism destinations are very exposed to disaster that can influence tourism demands and trends. As a matter of fact, terrorist activities, political instability and natural disasters are the three main factors, in the contemporary society, which can influence and support the risk perception and thus, have an impact on the tourist decision making process. This perception and the social amplification of risk are affected by media coverage during the events. The purpose of the current study is to investigate the role of media coverage in reporting risk in the context of a ‘risky destination’, as in the case of the Marche region, which has been stricken by several seismic events in August and October 2016 as well as in January 2017. In particular, this study analyses cultural differences from the perspective of online newspapers media coverage in the two countries during the earthquakes period using an explorative approach. This study draws attention to the cultural differences in media coverage and social amplification of risk Italy as a risky area and could will raise awareness among tourism marketers and policy makers about the importance of customized promotion and advertising strategies considering cultural differences.
