| THE COURSE AIMS TO DEEPEN BOTH THE THEORETICAL CONCEPTS AND EMPIRICAL METHODS THAT CHARACTERIZE THE DISCIPLINE IN ORDER TO DEVELOP IN STUDENTS THE ABILITY TO ANALYZE AND CRITICALLY INTERPRET THE DIFFERENT CONFIGURATIONS OF "TERRITORIALITY" IN A GLOBALIZED WORLD. PARTICULAR ATTENTION WILL BE PAID TO THE ROLE OF MAPPING SOCIO ECONOMIC PHENOMENA. EXTENSIVE USE OF CASE STUDIES WILL BE MADE TO HIGHLIGHT THE SPECIFIC CONTRIBUTION THAT GEOGRAPHY CAN OFFER TO THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE TERRITORIES AND IN THE PERSPECTIVE OF ELABORATING PLACE-BASED INTERVENTION POLICIES. AT THE END OF THE COURSE THE STUDENT WILL HAVE TO POSSESS THEORETICAL AND OPERATIONAL KNOWLEDGES, TO BE ABLE TO UNDERSTAND AND TO INTERPRET CRITICALLY THE PRINCIPLES, THE LOGIC AND THE EVOLUTIONARY DYNAMICS THAT CONCERN THE ORGANIZATION OF THE TERRITORY AT DIFFERENT GEOGRAPHICAL SCALES, WITH PARTICULAR REFERENCE TO THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN LOCAL AND GLOBAL LEVEL. IN PARTICULAR THE STUDENT MUST HAVE A GOOD ABILITY TO: -GATHER, INTERPRET AND USE STATISTICAL INFORMATION, PAPERS AND DOCUMENTS FROM DIFFERENT SOURCES; -BECOME FAMILIAR WITH TERRITORIAL DATABASES AND MAPPING METHODS; -READ AND PRODUCE THEMATIC MAPS TO REPRESENT ASPECTS OF SETTLEMENTS, ENVIRONMENTAL, HISTORICAL, CULTURAL, POLITICAL, ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL OF THE TERRITORY; -ELABORATE REPORTS ON DIFFERENT ISSUES AT DIFFERENT GEOGRAPHICAL SCALES, IN AN INTERDISCIPLINARY APPROACH. |
