“Il cibo degli altri”. Percorsi evolutivi dell’imprenditoria straniera in Italia

[Machine translation] The article analyzes the complex issue of ethnic entrepreneurship, through a theoretical and quantitative reconstruction. In particular, thanks to Expo 2015, it highlights the participation of ethnic business in the food sector. A rapidly evolving sector both because of the importance it currently plays in the Italian economic system and because of the role that food plays, as a “place” for the exchange and negotiation of identity. The topic covered by the contribution is part of an interesting line of research for economic geography and can contribute to the dissemination of knowledge at national level on the topic of foreign entrepreneurship.
