Mugi muga: gazteen nortasun politikoak mugaren bi aldeetan
What influences the shaping of our political identities? And in the process of understanding the nation? Are there differences depending on the sociological context? If you are looking for answers to these and many other questions, join this Summer Course.
Description
At these times of constant changes, this Summer Course aims at discussing why and on what basis young activists with agency build their political and national identity, focusing particularly on activists operating in the Basque Country.
Through lectures by experts in youth studies and political history of the region, the course will explore what say the current researches on the topic and will give the chance to discuss about it too. Thus, the findings of the research conducted by the University of the Basque Country in collaboration with the Basque Country Development Council and with funding from the Provincial Council of Gipuzkoa will be presented.
Finally, there will be a discussion between young activists who are both the subjects of the research and participants in the session, providing an opportunity to talk directly about the elements and conclusions of this course.
