GJERGJI, Iside. Lost in the Mediterranean: Theories, Discourses, Borders and Migration Policies in the Mare Nostrum. []. , 105, pp.113-124. ISSN 2182-7435.  https://doi.org/10.4000/rccs.5825.

For quite some time the Mediterranean region has been a prime arena for political action and reflection. As a consequence, a growing debate has emerged on its particular history, culture and anthropology. However, a good deal of this debate has proved incapable of successfully describing and analyzing the contemporary Mediterranean. Taking migratory movements, policies and bordering practices as its perspective, this article aims to shatter the picture postcard image of Mare Nostrum. Engaging with interdisciplinary studies, it highlights the stark contradictions operating within current theoretical and socio-political debates on the Mediterranean.
