Reference Bibliography
Livi Bacci M., Storia minima della popolazione del mondo, Il Mulino, Bologna, 2018.Type of delivery of the course
The didactics includes frontal lessons, but also group exercises assigned during the course.Attendance
The attendance of lessons, although recommended, is not mandatory.Type of evaluation
The verification of learning takes place through an oral test lasting about 1 hour, aimed at verifying the level of effective understanding of concepts and the ability of students to apply them in real contexts. However, it is also necessary to make an in-depth examination on Developed Countries and one on Less Developed Countries (in the form of an oral presentation during the course, for those attending, and a written essay to be delivered one week before the exam appeal, for those not attending).
