Drawing from the cases of housing squats in Rome and Turin, this article analyses potentialitiesand limitations of the extra-institutional refugee settlements, as well as theirfate after the restrictive turns of the 2018 security decree. Building on internationalliterature on urban informality, we highlight the social value of informal housing, aswell as the importance of building on these initiatives rather than erasing them. By combiningethnographic observations, interviews and policy analysis, we compare squattingand eviction in these two urban contexts. Those experiences illustrate the key role ofinformal housing in the emergence of grassroots forms of social support and «acts ofcitizenship». Whilst those spaces are considered «unliveable» by securitarian narratives,their eviction often results in an increased vulnerability of an already vulnerablepopulation.
