Università Roma Tre

The course, which is part of the debate on the anthropology of globalization, proposes, in its first part, the study of new political dimensions related to local cultural diversity and/or specificity. Subsequently, the critical elements for analysing, through the anthropological toolkit, the globalist tensions of the rhetoric of human rights and of new "mobile sovereignties", such as, for example, the actions and of "humanitarian government", will be provided. This will also be possible thanks to the illustration of specific ethnographic cases with reference to the body and its policies.
