The course of Contemporary History is part of the program in Philosophy and it is included among the basic training activities. At the end of the course students are expected to know the characterising elements of contemporary Europe: a small but varied continent, because of the coexistence and the overlapping (whithin a comparatively narrow amount of space) of nationalities, cultures, traditions, religions that shape multietnichal, multicultural and multireligious societies.
