"Between November 1995 and March 1996, Italy enacted a new programme for the regularization of foreigners in an irregular situation.... The programme had major consequences not only on foreign population size, since more than one million immigrants held residence permits at the end of 1996, but also on the labour market, by considerably reducing the illegal labour force.... The first part [of the essay] deals with legal provisions under which regularization could be granted, the success in combating illegal situations..., a comparison with previous regularization programmes and the geographical distribution of regularized immigrants. The second part analyses the specific relationship between regularization and labour market taking into account foreigners registered as unemployed, those employed under new contracts, and relevant percentages according to sectors of activity and regions. A final section is dedicated to the study of similarities and differences between present and past employment of foreign workers." (EXCERPT) |
