This project examines the transformations taking place in the New Europe since 1989. In particular, it focuses on the cultural, social, political and economic effects of the formation of the European Union on the one hand, and on the effects of migration flows into Europe, on the other hand. For this purpose we will study the work of a series of intellectuals, including traditional and organic ones. I am looking for students who work well in a team yet are also able to formulate analytical questions, have an interest in conceptual and theoretical frameworks, and who would like to assume leadership roles on a rotating basis.
Students can work as much as they want per week, but the weekly meetings are mandatory.
Language skills are also considered an advantage, but not a condition for participation. Students with knowledge of Arabic, Portuguese, and Scandinavian languages are highly desirable, but Spanish, French, German, Italian and other European languages will do as well.
