Throughout History, networks of scientists and knowledge exchange have been formed, and scientific mobility has been promoted both at the level of the academy and at political level. In the 1940s the “Europe of mobility” began to be drawn through, among other things, the creation of centers of critical reflection, involving not only academics but also intellectuals and politicians, who would contribute to the design of a “Europe of Education” and, in a broad sense, of a Europe of Knowledge. In this context, this collective volume gathers original contributions that focus on education and citizenship; History books; the ERASMUS program, both the academic and the military; the European credit transfer system; memory and heritage.

"This book argues that there is an inherent relationship between EU fundamental rights and EU citizenship; namely they both have the same aim of protecting the individual. This is underpinned by the development of case law in the field by the Court of Justice of the EU (CJEU). However, it suggests that that relationship in recent years has been weakened as the Court has entered increasingly sensitive territory with regards protection of citizenship rights and fundamental rights. Writing in the post EU referendum environment, the author argues that this decline is attributable to the Euroscepticism which has worsened since the Eurozone crisis and arguments that leaving the EU would reduce immigration from the EU. It offers one of the first comments on the current political atmosphere. This is important given rising fears of immigration which underlie much of the dissatisfaction with the EU project, not a feeling prevalent only in the UK. It will look at the rights of migrant EU citizens in Member States other than their own, and the guarantees that exist as a matter of protecting their fundamental human rights, which are present alongside rights enjoyed as part of being an EU citizen"

"This innovative book considers the evolution of the contemporary issues surrounding British citizenship, integrating the social aspects and ideas of identity and belonging alongside its legal elements. With contributions from renowned lawyers and academics, it challenges the view that there are immutable values and enduring rights associated with citizenship status. The book is organised into three thematic parts. Expert contributors trace the life cycle of the citizenship process, focusing on becoming a British citizen, retaining this citizenship with its associated rights, and the potential loss of citizenship owing to immigration controls. Through a critical examination of the concepts and content of British citizenship, the premise that citizenship retracts from full membership in society in times of turmoil is questioned. Wide-ranging and interdisciplinary, Citizenship in Times of Turmoil? will be a key resource for scholars and students working within the fields of migration, citizenship and immigration law. Including details of legal practice, it will also be of benefit to practitioners"--
