Abstract

Drawing upon the debates on ‘suburbanisms’ and ‘arrival space’, this article explores the complexities for welfare governance in multiethnic peripheries.The paper bridges two themes of the contemporary ‘suburban century’: the intensified global migration flows and the peripheral condition of suburbs worldwide; the work refers to the Municipality of Pioltello, a multiethnic suburban area in Milan’s region. This double-sided perspective reveals governance dynamics, here discussed through the concept of ‘welfare offloading’. In the observed neighborhood, governmental complexities disclose profound interdependencies with the region’s urban core and across municipalities; welfare tensions are ‘offloaded’ from the central core to peripheral regions.
