During the course tools and methodologies for observing and evaluating the interactions of cultural and religious communities with urban networks of some cities in the Mediterranean area, during the history of longue durée will be offered to students. We will read through texts and direct tracks and sources of involved subjects the characteristics of imbrication and reciprocal consequences among religious, social and political practices.
A particular focus will concern the history of muslim religious places in the space, their relationship with social and political/national, but also international movements in a pedagogical and historical perspective.
