Unit 1 – 36 hours - 6 cfu.
Emigration, internal migration and immigration in Italy from the nineteenth century to today.
The course aims at retracing, generally starting from the Italian unification and indicating the multiple implications of the latter, the internal and external migration phenomena that characterized and still characterize the history of the Italian society: from the nineteenth-century internal seasonal migrations, which were mainly at a short distance and connected to the agricultural activity, to the exodus from the South to the North of the Italian Peninsula during the 1950s and the 1960s of the Twentieth Century; from the great European and transoceanic migrations of the decades between the centuries 19th and 20th to the ones, once again transoceanic and European, of the first twenty-five years of the Republic, until the successive evolution by which Italy transformed into a country (also) of immigrants.
