show a relatively high degree of grammatical control;



use cohesive devices to link their utterances into clear and coherent discourse;

understand straightforward factual information about common everyday life;



interact with a degree of fluency and spontaneity that makes for regular interaction;



express news and views effectively in writing, and relate to those of others;



express themselves appropriately in different cultural and communicative situations;



and be aware of the most significant differences between the customs, usages, attitudes, values, and beliefs prevalent in the Italian culture and those of their own.

Migration, Displacement and Diaspora in

MIGRATIONDISPLACEDIASPORA FR

MENA4100OC: Migration, Displacement and Diaspora in the Contemporary Mediterranean. 3 points.

Instructor:
Madeleine Dobie

Taught in English.

This course is approved as a Global Core at Columbia.

This course examines the social, political and cultural history of migration in the Mediterranean,
with a particular focus on France and Africa. We examine the forces that have underpinned
migration in the nations of the Mediterranean rim since the 1950s and observe major transitions
in policy and legal frameworks. Though migration is often treated in mainstream media as an
object of policy and legislation, it is better approached as a ‘total social fact’ involving political,
social, economic and cultural dimensions. With this in mind, we look at different media, genres
and narrative forms in which migration has been represented and debated and grapple with
questions about the relationship between lived experience and representation and between
politics and the arts.
