Globalization, mobility and citizenship
Globalization, mobility and citizenship
A key perspective in this thematic priority area is how transnational economic relations, cultural interaction, and interdependence between places and people in different parts of the world influence politics and political participation, cooperation, and sustainable development. Special attention is given to social development in the Global South. A geographical perspective is used to provide new knowledge that will contribute to the development and implementation of institutional practices and measures to ensure that groups of people, which for various reasons do not participate in conventional planning processes, are included in decision-making processes. A major theme is how citizenship is emerging as an arena and resource for social and political strategies. The research in this thematic area will contribute to ways of facing the challenges of cultural diversity, social exclusion and democratic deficit.
