Migration, Multilingualism and Schooling in Southern Europe
Migration, Multilingualism and Schooling in Southern Europe, edited by Sandro Caruana, Liliana Coposescu and Stefania Scaglione, deals with a highly current topic in Europe today, namely migration in Southern European countries and its impact on children in primary schooling.

Lumea de mâine
„Această carte este o înregistrare, minim structurată – cât pentru a fi, totuşi, o carte – a gândurilor, temerilor, speranțelor şi sfaturilor fiecărui autor şi fiecărei autoare, în domeniul profesional care îi este cel mai familiar, brodate ca variațiuni pe tema crizei şi a consecințelor ei. Acele lucruri care – însumate, în interacțiunea complexă şi greu descriptibilă dintre ele – vor modela lumea de mâine, lumea de după pandemie.” ‒ Olivia Toderean „Una dintre primele culegeri sistematizate de lucrări analitice pe tema crizei actuale, această carte vine la un moment cât se poate de oportun şi este de înaltă valoare.
