This interdisciplinary course examines the current migration across the Mediterranean to Europe within a larger context, using historical analysis, literature, film studies, postcolonial theory, political science, and anthropology. Together, these different approaches paint an image of the Mediterranean as a dynamic border area in which people of different cultures, languages, religions, and ethnicities have interacted with one another throughout time and space. Enrollment limited to 20.
