The roundtable will focus on the\nTrieste border and the (in)visibility of migration from both an Italian and\nSlovenian perspective. Depending on the time period and on the people crossing\nit, the Trieste border has been part of the Iron Curtain, a space connecting\ndifferent worlds, an everyday transit space or a European barrier. The border\nconceals and exposes, constructs identities, routes and patterns of life. But,\nabove all, it builds cross-border territories and identities, it shapes the\nareas it encompasses and it gives rise to new social meaning. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Starting from an analysis of the\nborder and its past and present function, this public roundtable allows for\ndiscussion between scholars, local institutions and those who have crossed and\nexperienced the border in their migratory journeys. UniTS roundtable is the\nsecond stop in a European alliance path that began with the Koper roundtable on\nthe theme of Borders & Migrations. It will be an opportunity to present the\nBorder’s Archive (Archivio di Frontiera<\/em>), an ongoing operative research\nproject of students from the Universities of Trieste and Primorska.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
