Learning outcomes

This course aims at giving knowledge of Europe and its countries at a crucial moment for the future of the continent. The course, rather than the analysis of individual countries, aims at providing the conceptual, methodological and cultural basis needed to analyze and interpret the processes through which European spaces have been organized and by which space relations evolve. Starting from natural landscapes, we will analyze the economic, political and social perspectives and prospects of the European continent, paying attention also to the dynamics and international relations triggered by globalization.

The written test concludes with a vote proposal that the student can integrate with the supplementary oral exam.
