This course seeks to introduce students in this particular form of academic studies that is called “migration studies» and which relates to the examination and investigation of phenomena that are related to the geographic mobility of different human groups and individuals.
This course explores many different aspects of the migration phenomenon like voluntary and involuntary forms of mobility, migrations from south to north, from south to south (and from north to the north and south-south) etc. Generally, one could go as far as to argue that the world in which we live today appears to be in constant motion and maybe in constant flux too.
