Migration and Multiculturality in Spain

This course analyzes current migration flows and their implication, one of the most pressing issues in Spain and the European Union today. Students will be provided with the theoretical and conceptual framework needed to critically analyze both the diversity and complexity of migration and its effects on society and culture. The focus will be primarily on the city of Madrid and the course will provide students with field experience to understand how the city has become a place of coexistence for different ethnic and cultural groups, as well as the challenges this multiculturalism implies.
