  • Rosa Ferrentino
  • Luca Vota

Abstract

In this manuscript, the authors analyze the problem of integrating the low-skilled immigrants by adopting both a quantitative methodology and the marketing perspective. More precisely they propose a mathematical model aiming at describing the economic consequences of this phenomenon and, after that, try to frame it through the Service Science (SS), the Service Dominant Logic (SDL) and the Viably System approach (VSa). The authors point out actors, steps and outcome of an effective integration process. Their results are particularly useful for policy makers and experts in the field of migration flows management and integration.  JEL classification numbers: C02; C61; E02.
