| Summary: | This article is aimed to analyse processes of school segregation in four Italian metropolitan areas (Milan, Bologna, Rome, Naples), considering their linkages with the transformation of settlement trends and national and local immigration policies.In this respect, rescaling processes imply an increased scope for an uncoordinated local action, affecting – among the other issues – how migrants settle and meet relevant institutions, including schools.After introducing the different hub role of the four metropolitan areas for international migrants to Italy, school segregation will be analysed as an effect resulting from the interrelation of settlement patterns and institutional configurations. Examples of micro-segregation processes in every city will be used to disentangle the relation between scalar processes and localized agency. |
