Item Italian emigration to America from 1861 at the end of World War I(Università Ca’ Foscari – Venezia, 2011) Bianchi, SilvanaIn all periods of history groups of men have moved from their territories in search of better living conditions, but of the century this phenomenon has assumed quantitative and spatial particularly dilated. The Italians were then between the protagonists of a real escape and, in countries of immigration, have become the subject of prejudice and false accusations, often the same day that reproduce themselves against foreigners who arrive in the peninsula in search of work.Item Man on the move in 19th Century: Emigration Italy and globalisation(Università Ca’ Foscari – Venezia, 2011) Bianchi, SilvanaSpace mobility is a constant in world and people history. Migration phenomena have become an important feature and took on a global character while they have extended their destinations over and over. In Italy we have experienced a sort of turnaround, comparing to a distant past and, after decades of intense emigration, this country has turned into a centre of attraction and call-up. Although it is difficult to get exact information about it and to lock up such a complex phenomenon as migration into a straight plan, nowadays it is necessary to know its trends and enclose them in a global analysis circuit. It is therefore possible to determine and picture its main features (paying attention to the words, of course) with charts an maps e carte that help us to highlight those main features. In this module, we will use tools like texts, charts, graphs and maps. These tools are helpful, indeed, to analyse and understand our territory and its economical and social phenomena liked to the territory itself.
