Abstract

Contemporary urban areas are characterized by the growing number of resident and non-resident people living, working, and consuming in cities. According to the analysis of Martinotti (1993), we have four types of metropolitan populations: inhabitants, commuters, city users (mainly tourists), and businessmen. These populations come and stay in the city in different moments during the day or in different seasons, for different reasons and purposes, generating different types of real or potential conflicts. In particular, it is possible to focus on six types of possible conflicts: from a spatial point of view, in terms of conflicts concerning occupation and mobility in the space; from a more general point of view, in terms of economic, cultural, fiscal, and political conflicts. Of course, non-resident populations constitute very important resources also for improving the living conditions of resident populations, and vice versa. However, scholars and planners should also recognize that contemporary cities have to tackle many problems related to the high concentration and flow of people in urban areas, where new worrisome phenomena of social polarization and political disenfranchisement are emerging that require innovative types of public policies.

Starting from the beginning of this century, many general studies and much local research have been conducted in Italy on this topic due to the growing presence of tourists and commuters in many cities and the lack of appropriate public transports (Mela et al. 2000; Casarin 2002; Nuvolati 2002; Cristaldi 2003; Tornaghi 2004; Bernareggi 2007; Cecchini and Cannaos 2007; Nuvolati 2007; Balducci et al. 2008; Censis 2008; Colleoni 2008; Pasqui 2008).

In our analysis regular immigrants are conceived as inhabitants (if residents) or commuters or other already considered categories (if non-residents).
