"This volume, edited by Ignazia Bartholini, principal investigator of the PROVIDE - Proximity on Violence: Defence and Equity project (Rights, Equality and Citizenship Programme - 2014-2020) funded by the EU, shifted the interpretative focus of its research from gender-based to proximity violence. This theoretical intuition-assertion, fruitful too at empirical level, is informed by a wide-scale reconstruction of the phenomenon of migratory violence and corroborated by the results of the action research carried out by six international teams ˗ Ismu, Oxfam, Telefono Donna, Badia Grande, Aseis Lagarto, SamuSocial International, the University of Jaén and the University of Palermo. Systems of protection, formal and informal good practices, as well as critical issues regarding the reception of migrants, are explored and narrated by the co-authors of the volume thanks to the action research they conducted with the collaboration of a plethora of professionals who narrate and illustrate the topic of proximity violence, providing their own particular frames of reference, views and counterfactual reflections. Furthermore, the discussion of legislation provided offers a cogent crosssection of what has been done to contrast the violence which thousands of asylum seekers and refugees undergo and how much national governments need to do in order to host and recognise victims of proximity violence."

Processes of pluralization pose new challenges for teaching various subjects. The social, cultural, and religious heterogeneity of students is not only of pedagogical importance, but also highly relevant for subject-specific education. It was with this in mind that the "Third Conference of Subject-Specific Education" (University of Innsbruck May 2017) discussed the topic "Religious and (socio-)cultural Diversity in Subject-Specific Education and Teaching". The fourteen contributions dealt with a basic examination of diversity concepts, the demands of teaching history in a society with a high level of immigration, the relevance of linguistic and cultural diversity among teachers and students in the teaching of languages, issues in the teaching of geography in the context of sustainable development, and aspects of inter-religious studies in both secondary and tertiary education. - Gesellschaftliche Pluralisierungsprozesse stellen den Fachunterricht vor neue Herausforderungen. Die soziale, kulturelle und religiöse Heterogenität der Schülerinnen und Schüler ist nicht nur pädagogisch bedeutsam, sondern auch fachdidaktisch höchst relevant. Vor diesem Hintergrund widmete sich die "Dritte Tagung der Fachdidaktik", die im Mai 2017 an der Universität Innsbruck stattfand, dem Thema "Religiöse und (sozio-)kulturelle Vielfalt in Fachdidaktik und Unterricht". In vierzehn Beiträgen spannt der vorliegende Tagungsband einen thematischen Bogen von der grundsätzlichen Auseinandersetzung mit Diversitätskonzepten und den Anforderungen an die Geschichtsdidaktik in der Migrationsgesellschaft über die Relevanz sprachlicher und kultureller Diversität von Lehrenden und Lernenden im Kontext der Sprachendidaktik bis hin zu geographiedidaktischen Fragestellungen im Kontext einer Bildung für nachhaltige Entwicklung und Aspekten interreligiösen Lernens in Schule und Hochschule.

"In recent elections across the European Union, parties adopting an anti-immigration stance and making use of populist rhetoric have been gaining electoral breakthrough. Against this backdrop, and in order to contribute to a deeper understanding of the connections binding migration and populism dynamics in Europe, this volume aims to trigger a discussion on the causes and consequences of the rise of populism in Europe. The book also deconstructs the rhetorical frames populists use to depict migratory flows as an exceptional phenomenon"--

Policing Humanitarianism examines the ways in which European Union policies aimed at countering the phenomenon of migrant smuggling affects civil society actors' activities in the provision of humanitarian assistance, access to rights for irregular immigrants and asylum seekers. It explores the effects of EU policies, laws and agencies' operations in anti-migrant smuggling actions and their implementation in the following EU Member States: Italy, Greece, Hungary and the UK.The book critically studies policies designed and implemented since 2015, during the so called 'European refugee humanitarian crisis'. Building upon the existing academic literature covering the 'criminalisation of migration ' in the EU, the book examines the wider set of punitive, coercive or control-oriented dynamics affecting Civil Society Actors' work and activities through the lens of the notion of ' policing the mobility society'. This concept seeks to provide a framework of analysis that allows for an examination of a wider set of practices, mechanisms and tools driven by a logic of policing in the context of the EU Schengen border framework: those which affect not only people, who move (qualified as third-country nationals for the purposes of EU law), but also people who mobilise in a rights-claiming capacity on behalf of and with immigrants and asylum-seekers

What happened to the university teachers who were expelled after the racial laws of 1938? And what about the more numerous and less known unstructured scholars who were suspended from service? What did the students who were denied university enrolment or the new graduates with no prospects for their future do? The university archives tell us nothing about this; the general aim was for scholars and students who were declared of "Jewish race" to be cancelled and forgotten. It was not a small number of them who decided to leave Italy. What were their paths and help networks? How were they treated abroad? How much did Italian culture suffer from those losses? After the war, did universities try to restore them? The expatriates who returned could have brought new knowledge and ideas, but many never returned. Why? By focusing on the relevant case of Florence, the volume investigates the minimized phenomenon of intellectual emigration for political and racial reasons. A recent past in need of consideration and reflection.
