L'ordine dell'ospitalità come orizzonte giuridico dell'inclusione sociale

This is a brief study of the question of social inclusion, which analyses the issue under two distinct headings. The first, which involves a critique of the economic idea of exchange, attempts to highlight the limits and contradictions that beset this paradigm, which has become such an intrinsic aspect of our lives today, when it imposes itself onto the entire range of social relationships. Under the second heading, which re-examines the ethical and juridical topic of ‘hospitality’, we try to take another look at the problem of migratory movement and all its paradoxical aspects in the light of current processes of globalisation of markets. These two issues have never been so interconnected as they are today, especially if it is the case that the problem posed by the growing phenomenon of migration in democratic and multi-ethnic societies, which are more and more involved in difficult relationships with ‘outsiders’, is bound to reappear, for good or for ill, on the level of social inclusion.

Dopo una critica del concetto economico di scambio, in questo lavoro si è cercato di riconsiderare, in tutta la sua paradossalità, la questione dell'inclusione sociale alla luce del paradigma giuridico dell'ospitalità; un percorso analitico, dunque, teso a rileggere, sul piano sociologico, il problema dei movimenti migratori nei margini scivolosi di un'accoglienza disposta entro i limiti di un diritto ospitale
