“ Italy” in Access to Care: Privilege or Right? Migration and HIV Vulnerability in Europe, Eds by G. Bröring, C. Canter, N. Schinaia and B. Teixeira, October 2003, p. 74-87

Italy has changed from a country of emigration into a preferred migratory destination and has been forced to address the problems that arise from permanent, temporary and seasonal immigration.
