The objectives of the training activity are: a) to go over some conceptual nodes of the ethno-anthropological debate and research, from the overcoming of the concept of race to the formulation of that of culture, up to the deconstruction of the contradictions of culturalism, from the point of view of a new ethnography of contemporary worlds; b) to provide critical elements to face themes and problems linked to contemporary globalization as a complex interweaving of local and transnational processes; c) to develop the perspective of studies of political anthropology, in the analysis of the historical contradictions linked to the concept of ethnic identity as well as in the reflections that define the field of multiculturalism, placing them in relation with the migratory realities and in the study of the different forms in which old and new racisms, together with other practices of exclusion, articulate new processes of social construction of difference.

Programme
The main course of 6 credits in presence proposes a survey of themes and central problems of cultural and social anthropology. After having retraced some hubs of research - the concept of culture, the overcoming of the "race", relativism / ethnocentrism, ethnic identity, the analysis of the historical-social processes of contact that from the colonial situation reach the current realities of globalization, some research lines will therefore be studied in depth: the first is related to gender and body, a second one dedicated to the analysis of new parental and family realities.Core Documentation
