In recent years, the figure of voluntary guardian for unaccompanied minors has been formalized in Italy (Law No. 47/2017). It is a figure on the borderline between voluntary activity and institutional activity, between formal and in-formal role, without a well-defined and regulated behavior model. The guardi-an is not an adoptive or custodial parent, however, being required to take care of the material and emotional well-being of the minor, he must establish a rela-tionship with him defined as “social parenting”, helping him to internalize the norms and behaviours of the context of arrival. This is known in sociology as the “socialization process”, and in its primary form it is usually managed by the family one belongs to. The article questions the role of voluntary guardians in the transition of unaccompanied minors from one social universe to anoth-er, from one socialization to another, the concept of 'social parenting' and the networks that support this role at an institutional, professional and social lev-el.
Keywords: legal protection; guardianship; unaccompanied minors; prima-ry/secondary socialization.
