93423 - MIGRATION TO AND FROM EUROPE

Conoscenze e abilità da conseguire

The objective of this module is to investigate, with the help of international experts, a few different but interrelated topics: the history and evolution of migration and immigration movements, the impact of immigrant business in Europe and the young foreigners’ national identity formation processes, between opportunities and constraints (this entails issues relating to social and cultural interaction; intergenerational relations; citizenship and sense of belonging; future orientations). This new innovative module will be open to all students in Forlì and will include the contribution of European legal experts, historians, demographers, economists and sociologists in order to offer a cross-disciplinary long term view on migration movements and their economic and social impact. It will benefit from the Jean Monnet Chair contribution which will cover all travel expenses of the incoming international experts.
