Abstract

Nel terziario avanzato delle piattaforme digitali, gli immigrati continuano a subire forme di segregazione, concentrandosi nelle aree occupazionali peggiori. In particolare, ci? sta accadendo nel settore dell?on-line food delivery. In mancanza di dati amministrativi completi non ? ancora possibile cogliere la portata del fenomeno, n? tanto meno capire se la concentrazione degli immigrati nel settore dipenda da un flusso continuo oppure da permanenze prolungate. Il presente contributo affronta la questione incrociando dati quantitativi secondari con il materiale di analisi qualitative raccolto nell?ambito di una ricerca esplorativa e multisituata, che si ? svolta tra le citt? di Catania (06/2020-06/2021) e Milano (03/2023-03/2024). L?articolo fornisce una ricostruzione inedita della presenza degli immigrati nelle economie urbane italiane dell?on-line food delivery, tenendo in considerazione le informazioni di carattere quantitativo presenti in letteratura e i dati sul lavoro sommerso forniti dalla Magistratura. A quanto risulta, gli immigrati trovano nelle piattaforme una soluzione per fronteggiare bisogni immediati, ma finiscono col rimanervi intrappolati per periodi prolungati.
