Course contents
The aim of the class is to provide students with the main tools from the most updated empirical research for the analysis of the contemporary societies. The class will be focused both around main social theories and around main topics in sociological research.
The class will have an institutional part and a smaller monographic part devoted to the analysis and the discussion of the growing presence of immigrants communities in Italy and in Europe and the challenges connected to this presence.

Teaching methods
The course is organized with a part of lectures taught online on MS TEAMS (30/20 hours) and another taught in presence (30/20 hours). The number of students allowed in class is determined on the basis of class capacity and by the health and safety provisions that deal with the pandemic emergency. In case more students want to attend classes in presence than permitted by the rules, a system of shifts will be organized so to allow students to participate. Regardless of the health-related conditions and the specific organization of the course, students will be able to follow the lessons of the entire course remotely on MS TEAMS.
Assessment methods
The exam will be a multiple choice test. More informations will be given in the first lesson.
