Europe and Migration

Aims of the Course:
This course aims to extend the understanding of the key notions of migration, globalisation, diasporas, colonisation, integration and assimilation in contemporary Europe. Europe and Migration as a module also aims at equipping the students with the tools to compare different forms of migration since the antiquity as well as alternative forms of regimes of migrations implemented by different states such as Germany, France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Turkey and Britain. The course will also frame the migration related discussions within the European Commission as well as in the individual member states.
