Learning outcomes |
This course aims to deepen theoretical and methodological knowledge on processes of civic, social, ethnic and cultural inclusion and exclusion, linking citizenship and multiculturalism in societies marked by global inequalities and the challenges of the Anthropocene. Students should be able to: critically analyse contemporary contexts of participation and identity; understand multicultural dynamics at different scales; interpret identity formation processes and collective action; discuss theories of citizenship in light of social and climate injustice, including forced migration (economic, political and environmental). The theoretical-practical model ensures articulation between conceptual foundations and current issues.
