26. Articles on "Global Identities and Communities" for "Glocalism – Journal of

The analysis of migratory flows have led some scholars to agree upon the theory of
“double absence”, where the migrant experiences in his own dealings a loss of
“belonging” to his origins as well as lack of “recognition” as a citizen in his
newly adopted country. The protean reality of globalisation permits, however, to
identify different points of view and particular concrete cases that suggest the
necessity for more complex hermeneutical paradigms.
