(objectives)
1) Knowledge and ability to understand - the course aims to provide students with the theoretical foundations related to the processes of radicalisation and terrorism in the political and religious sphere, as well as tools and strategies of criminalisation in a perspective of historical evolution of the public sphere. 2) Applied knowledge and understanding - students will acquire skills related to the tools for analysing emerging political and religious radicalism, with particular reference to media analysis. 3) Autonomy of judgement - the course will provide students with the tools to recognise ongoing radicalisation processes and assess their extent and social danger. 4) Communication skills - during the lessons students will be invited to present their project work to the rest of the class, in order to share and compare with other colleagues the tools they have learnt. 5) Learning skills - the course is based on a dual mode of lecturing and learning by doing, which encourages students to participate in a final online analysis of a contemporary radicalisation phenomenon.
