Information
Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung
This course lays the foundation for the specialization Migration and Population Dynamics, which examines the key interactions between global change and population dynamics, with a particular focus on migration. The topic is situated within the broader context of global development, with special attention to the Global South.The question of how environmental and climate change affect migration and displacement is the subject of ongoing and controversial debate, not only among scholars but also among policymakers and the general public. Over the past decades, research on environmental and climate mobilities has expanded rapidly, incorporating an increasing range of disciplines, methodological approaches, conceptual perspectives, and regional foci.The aim of this introductory course is to provide participants with a comprehensive overview of the specialization’s core themes. It enables students to navigate the field, identify key debates, and engage with selected case studies, thereby preparing the ground for more intensive study and specialization in the following semesters.
