57850 - SOCIOLOGIA DELLE MIGRAZIONI

Learning outcomes

The course is aimed to offer students the main theoretical tools useful for the interpretation of the migration phenomena, in their historical and contemporary traits. The study of the fundamental analytical models posed by the sociology of migration will be indispensable to develop a critical reflection on social integration and social exclusion: general elements which are to be connected to the political and legal frameworks of reception and subordinated inclusion. A specific focus will be dedicated, also in a comparative fashion, to the relation between migration policies, job markets and the processes of criminalization of migrants and minority groups.
