POLITICAL ECONOMY
(objectives)
The course is structured in two main parts.
The first part is concerned with Microeconomics, where the students will learn how markets and governance structures organize core economic activities, such as production, distribution, and consumption, and the growth of productive resources. Upon completion of this part students will be able to identify and explain economic concepts and theories related to the behavior of economic agents, markets, industry and firm structures, and government policies. Moreover, students will be able to integrate theoretical knowledge with quantitative evidence in order to explain main economic events. Students will be able to evaluate the consequences of economic activities and institutions for individual and social welfare. The second part is concerned with Macroeconomics, where the students will learn about the determinants of macroeconomic conditions (national output, employment, inflation), causes of business cycles, and interactions of monetary and financial markets with the real economy, familiarizing themselves in the process with major economic theories of relevance. Upon completion of the second part students will be able to identify the determinants of various macroeconomic aggregates such as output, unemployment, inflation, productivity and the major challenges associated with the measurement of these aggregates. They will be able to discuss the linkages between financial markets and the real economy, and how these linkages influence the impact of economic policies over differing time horizons. Moreover, students will be able to describe the main macroeconomic theories of short term fluctuations and long term growth in the economy and they will be able to critically evaluate the consequences of basic macroeconomic policy options under differing economic conditions within a business cycle.

LANGUAGE, CULTURE AND INSTITUTIONS OF ENGLISH SPEAKING COUNTRIES
(objectives)
Students A-L
The course is made up of two modules. While the first module deals with some of the main grammar and morpho-syntactic structures of the English language, the second module focuses on the diversity of American culture through short stories and their writers. A selection of American short stories from the nineteenth and twentieth centuries will be read and discussed. Special attention will be given to their formal and rhetorical characteristics as well as their impact and legacy on American history and culture. Students M-Z Teaching objectives The course is made up of two modules. While the first module deals with some of the main grammar and morpho-syntactic structures of the English language, the second module focuses on Afrofuturism, an interdisciplinary cultural movement that rejects a number of clichés that have commonly referred to people of African descent. Upon completion of the course, students will be able to take a critical outlook on the different languages of Afrofuturism: music, visual arts, cinema and especially literature − proto-Afrofuturist fiction such as W.E.B. Du Bois’s short story “The Comet” (1920), George S. Schuyler’s novel Black No More (1931) and more recent examples such as Ralph Ellison’s Invisible Man (1952) and Octavia E. Butler’s Kindred (1979). The emphasis on Afrofuturism, as developed through literary texts, will be instrumental to the connection of this phenomenon to modern social and cultural issues. By promoting active participation in classes, the adopted teaching method envisages the improvement of language skills and the ability to engage in open discussion.

First module: English grammar: Learning the Language
(reference books)
The first module deals with some of the main grammar and morpho-syntactic structures of the English language. The language skills acquired by the students will be assessed at the end of the course through the 'Prova di esonero'. Second module: Afrofuturism: Literature, Music, Cinema Afrofuturism is an interdisciplinary cultural movement that rejects a number of clichés that have commonly referred to people of African descent. At a first glance, Afrofuturism may sound like an oxymoron. “Afro” and “Futurism” are likely to be considered as terms in opposition, the former evoking images of primitivism and backwardness, the latter – ever since F. T. Marinetti’s definition in 1909 – celebrating instead speed and modernity. The creative contribution of Afrofuturist writers, musicians, artists, filmmakers and critics challenges the stereotypical historical view routinely applied to the Black Atlantic experience and proposes counter-histories that reconsider the role of black people in the western society in the past and imagine alternative roles in the future. The module focuses on the different languages of Afrofuturism: music, visual arts, cinema and especially literature − proto-Afrofuturist fiction such as W.E.B. Du Bois’s short story “The Comet” (1920), George S. Schuyler’s novel Black No More (1931) and more recent examples such as Ralph Ellison’s Invisible Man (1952) and Octavia E. Butler’s Kindred (1979).

POLITICAL ECONOMY
(objectives)
The course is structured in two main parts.
The first part is concerned with Microeconomics, where the students will learn how markets and governance structures organize core economic activities, such as production, distribution, and consumption, and the growth of productive resources. Upon completion of this part students will be able to identify and explain economic concepts and theories related to the behavior of economic agents, markets, industry and firm structures, and government policies. Moreover, students will be able to integrate theoretical knowledge with quantitative evidence in order to explain main economic events. Students will be able to evaluate the consequences of economic activities and institutions for individual and social welfare. The second part is concerned with Macroeconomics, where the students will learn about the determinants of macroeconomic conditions (national output, employment, inflation), causes of business cycles, and interactions of monetary and financial markets with the real economy, familiarizing themselves in the process with major economic theories of relevance. Upon completion of the second part students will be able to identify the determinants of various macroeconomic aggregates such as output, unemployment, inflation, productivity and the major challenges associated with the measurement of these aggregates. They will be able to discuss the linkages between financial markets and the real economy, and how these linkages influence the impact of economic policies over differing time horizons. Moreover, students will be able to describe the main macroeconomic theories of short term fluctuations and long term growth in the economy and they will be able to critically evaluate the consequences of basic macroeconomic policy options under differing economic conditions within a business cycle.

LANGUAGE, CULTURE AND INSTITUTIONS OF ENGLISH SPEAKING COUNTRIES
(objectives)
Students A-L
The course is made up of two modules. While the first module deals with some of the main grammar and morpho-syntactic structures of the English language, the second module focuses on the diversity of American culture through short stories and their writers. A selection of American short stories from the nineteenth and twentieth centuries will be read and discussed. Special attention will be given to their formal and rhetorical characteristics as well as their impact and legacy on American history and culture. Students M-Z Teaching objectives The course is made up of two modules. While the first module deals with some of the main grammar and morpho-syntactic structures of the English language, the second module focuses on Afrofuturism, an interdisciplinary cultural movement that rejects a number of clichés that have commonly referred to people of African descent. Upon completion of the course, students will be able to take a critical outlook on the different languages of Afrofuturism: music, visual arts, cinema and especially literature − proto-Afrofuturist fiction such as W.E.B. Du Bois’s short story “The Comet” (1920), George S. Schuyler’s novel Black No More (1931) and more recent examples such as Ralph Ellison’s Invisible Man (1952) and Octavia E. Butler’s Kindred (1979). The emphasis on Afrofuturism, as developed through literary texts, will be instrumental to the connection of this phenomenon to modern social and cultural issues. By promoting active participation in classes, the adopted teaching method envisages the improvement of language skills and the ability to engage in open discussion.

First module: English grammar: Learning the Language
(reference books)
The first module deals with some of the main grammar and morpho-syntactic structures of the English language. The language skills acquired by the students will be assessed at the end of the course through the 'Prova di esonero'. Second module: Afrofuturism: Literature, Music, Cinema Afrofuturism is an interdisciplinary cultural movement that rejects a number of clichés that have commonly referred to people of African descent. At a first glance, Afrofuturism may sound like an oxymoron. “Afro” and “Futurism” are likely to be considered as terms in opposition, the former evoking images of primitivism and backwardness, the latter – ever since F. T. Marinetti’s definition in 1909 – celebrating instead speed and modernity. The creative contribution of Afrofuturist writers, musicians, artists, filmmakers and critics challenges the stereotypical historical view routinely applied to the Black Atlantic experience and proposes counter-histories that reconsider the role of black people in the western society in the past and imagine alternative roles in the future. The module focuses on the different languages of Afrofuturism: music, visual arts, cinema and especially literature − proto-Afrofuturist fiction such as W.E.B. Du Bois’s short story “The Comet” (1920), George S. Schuyler’s novel Black No More (1931) and more recent examples such as Ralph Ellison’s Invisible Man (1952) and Octavia E. Butler’s Kindred (1979). The reference material includes works of fiction, critical essays and audiovisual material. For students attending classes:

POLITICAL ECONOMY
(objectives)
The course is structured in two main parts.
The first part is concerned with Microeconomics, where the students will learn how markets and governance structures organize core economic activities, such as production, distribution, and consumption, and the growth of productive resources. Upon completion of this part students will be able to identify and explain economic concepts and theories related to the behavior of economic agents, markets, industry and firm structures, and government policies. Moreover, students will be able to integrate theoretical knowledge with quantitative evidence in order to explain main economic events. Students will be able to evaluate the consequences of economic activities and institutions for individual and social welfare. The second part is concerned with Macroeconomics, where the students will learn about the determinants of macroeconomic conditions (national output, employment, inflation), causes of business cycles, and interactions of monetary and financial markets with the real economy, familiarizing themselves in the process with major economic theories of relevance. Upon completion of the second part students will be able to identify the determinants of various macroeconomic aggregates such as output, unemployment, inflation, productivity and the major challenges associated with the measurement of these aggregates. They will be able to discuss the linkages between financial markets and the real economy, and how these linkages influence the impact of economic policies over differing time horizons. Moreover, students will be able to describe the main macroeconomic theories of short term fluctuations and long term growth in the economy and they will be able to critically evaluate the consequences of basic macroeconomic policy options under differing economic conditions within a business cycle.

(objectives)
Students A-L
The course is made up of two modules. While the first module deals with some of the main grammar and morpho-syntactic structures of the English language, the second module focuses on the diversity of American culture through short stories and their writers. A selection of American short stories from the nineteenth and twentieth centuries will be read and discussed. Special attention will be given to their formal and rhetorical characteristics as well as their impact and legacy on American history and culture. Students M-Z Teaching objectives The course is made up of two modules. While the first module deals with some of the main grammar and morpho-syntactic structures of the English language, the second module focuses on Afrofuturism, an interdisciplinary cultural movement that rejects a number of clichés that have commonly referred to people of African descent. Upon completion of the course, students will be able to take a critical outlook on the different languages of Afrofuturism: music, visual arts, cinema and especially literature − proto-Afrofuturist fiction such as W.E.B. Du Bois’s short story “The Comet” (1920), George S. Schuyler’s novel Black No More (1931) and more recent examples such as Ralph Ellison’s Invisible Man (1952) and Octavia E. Butler’s Kindred (1979). The emphasis on Afrofuturism, as developed through literary texts, will be instrumental to the connection of this phenomenon to modern social and cultural issues. By promoting active participation in classes, the adopted teaching method envisages the improvement of language skills and the ability to engage in open discussion.

First module: English grammar: Learning the Language
(reference books)
The first module deals with some of the main grammar and morpho-syntactic structures of the English language. The language skills acquired by the students will be assessed at the end of the course through the 'Prova di esonero'. Second module: Afrofuturism: Literature, Music, Cinema Afrofuturism is an interdisciplinary cultural movement that rejects a number of clichés that have commonly referred to people of African descent. At a first glance, Afrofuturism may sound like an oxymoron. “Afro” and “Futurism” are likely to be considered as terms in opposition, the former evoking images of primitivism and backwardness, the latter – ever since F. T. Marinetti’s definition in 1909 – celebrating instead speed and modernity. The creative contribution of Afrofuturist writers, musicians, artists, filmmakers and critics challenges the stereotypical historical view routinely applied to the Black Atlantic experience and proposes counter-histories that reconsider the role of black people in the western society in the past and imagine alternative roles in the future. The module focuses on the different languages of Afrofuturism: music, visual arts, cinema and especially literature − proto-Afrofuturist fiction such as W.E.B. Du Bois’s short story “The Comet” (1920), George S. Schuyler’s novel Black No More (1931) and more recent examples such as Ralph Ellison’s Invisible Man (1952) and Octavia E. Butler’s Kindred (1979).

THE ITALIAN POLITICAL SYSTEM
(objectives)
The course analyses the transformation of Italian politics from different levels: the changes of the party system, the electoral laws and the political culture. Special emphasis is put on the Constitutional rules as well as on the political dynamics, involving political parties and social actors. Due consideration is given to the division of powers between institutions (with an eye also on the European and local levels). Special attention is devoted to the role of political parties and of main leaders, also including the new populist trends, with a constant look at current affairs.
