interstate conflicts that occurred over the nineteenth century and that
climaxed in the First World War? In this ambitious and broad-ranging
study, Daniela L. Caglioti highlights the many ways in which belligerent
countries throughout the world mobilized populations along the member/
non-member divide, redefined inclusion and exclusion, and refashioned
notions and practices of citizenship. She examines what it meant to be an
alien in wartime, how the treatment of aliens in wartime interfered with
sovereignty and the rule of law, and how that treatment affected
population policies, individual and human rights, and conceptions of
belonging. Concentrating on the gulf between citizens and foreigners and
on the dilemma of balancing rights and security in wartime, Caglioti
highlights how each country, regardless of its political system, chose
national security even if this meant reducing freedom, discriminating
among citizens and non-citizens, and violating international law

Articles by daniela l. (gia) caglioti
From the 18th century to World War I, migrants from Switzerland played an important role in Southern Italy’s trade, industry, army and social life. As a whole, these migrants were characterized by heterogeneous regional origins, professional profiles and confessional identities. In Naples they pursued very different social strategies. The essay analyses how legal frames shaped group building processes in the old regime and how – from the 19th century onwards – specific social, economic and cultural resources led lower-class migrants to develop a multiplicity of ties to local protagonists through marriage, neighbourhood and work, whereas elite migrants chose to build an economically, religiously and socially self-segregated community.
patterns of management and frequently also technicians and workers They also built a religious community, schools, a cemetery, clubs, philanthropic societies and a church. Resourceful, drawing on considerable social capital and sharing a high level of training and culture they developed a specific pattern of settlement avoiding contacts and formal relationships with the local elite and refusing integration and assimilation in the host society. The article shows how a high level of marriage endogamy (at the same time national, religious and social), growing in second and third generations, helped protecting and perpetuating this Protestant enclave and examines the role plaid by gender, friendship, kinship, origins, education and religion in orienting marriage strategies.

According to recent calculations, in fact, for 42 months in a row the Mediterranean was the theater that attracted more resources in terms of both means and men among those available to the Western Allies, contributing decisively to the total victory, and to the positioning of the forces that would then determine the balances and realities of postwar Europe.
The global network of war theatres posed major challenges to military planners and political leaders alike, as threats originated from more than one single theatre at a time and the means were not sufficiently rich to counter them all. The allocation of sizable defence resources to the North African campaign, for instance, had an impact on the British loss of Malaya and Singapore, and the commitment of divisions and ships into the Mediterranean significantly delayed the landings in Northern Europe.
This conference intends to reflect on the state of the field, combining the work of prominent scholars with that of younger researchers. It seeks to adopt a fully global approach that can take advantage of diplomatic, military, institutional and social perspectives in order to form an updated image of the Mediterranean during the conflict in all its central aspects in light of the new studies. It will consider the relationship between the Mediterranean and the eastern front, northwest Europe and the campaign in the Pacific. The internal debate within the two alliances on the role the region had to play in the overall development of the war, and the plans and imposition of the postwar order in the region also merits further assessment. Finally, the role played by occupied countries, civilian populations, collaborationist regimes and insurgent movements in the area remain very important themes that offer prospects for deepened understanding and groundbreaking discovery.
aftermath” organize a Workshop to be held on 20-21 June, in Naples. This workshop seeks to bring together scholars of citizenship in the Italian colonial context and aims at inserting the Italian experience in a broad comparative frame.
