Description
Students will be required to conduct a bibliographic analysis on a topic of their choice, approved by the EU officials. Under the supervision of a teacher-researcher, students will have to answer the questions they raise through an analysis of the available bibliography. They will have to review the state of the art in their field of work, identify areas of uncertainty and controversy, and open questions that remain to be resolved. They will be required to carry out a genuine critical scientific analysis of the available bibliography, rather than simply summarizing it. They will be required to follow the conventions for writing a scientific article, which involves citing sources, synthesizing information through illustration, problematization, and summarizing scientific results.

- Responding to educational and/or scientific criticism;
