abstract

In the 21st century the small number of Italian immigrants arriving has led to an accelerated integration and non-enclave incorporation into American society. Notable are the many high skilled professionals arriving and giving us leadership in banking, automotive industry and design. The cultural richness of Italy makes it a desirable source country for the skills that are needed for the emerging economy and jobs of the United States. Yet this isn’t everyone’s story. There are still those that suffer and experience some downward mobility.
