Conoscenze e abilità da conseguire
The aim of this Course is to provide students with analytical skills to assess, research and critically debate the political dimensions of international migrations. At the end of the Course the student is expected to know the layers of governance of the issue at the regional and global level; to acknowledge the main challenges key actors identify with respect to the phenomenon and to be aware of the main resistances to the creation of an effective and efficient governance of the phenomenon.
Contenuti
The course is organized in lectures and seminars. Lectures (16 hours) aim to introduce students to the core tenets of the discipline. Seminars (12 hours) aim to provide occasions for in-depth discussions on topics of key relevance through class-works, debates, exercises and presentations. For the seminar section of the course, students will be divided in two groups. Students are required to carefully read the assigned material before the session and - especially in the case of seminars - active participation is strongly recommended.
The programme is quite dense and requires full dedications by enrolled Students. Students are expected to read the material in the Syllabus ahead of classes, following Professor’s instruction. No specific schedule is provided as Classes may vary according to need.
