I giovani, le scuole e le città multiculturali

The visual and sound landscapes of intercultural cities, in which we live, are equally ambivalent, where you can see the presence of young people lead us to ask some questions that lie at the center the relationship between the young people an the Other in the intercultural cities. The indistinct masses of young people who live in the cities raises the question whether they have the perception of what are the boundaries of the public sphere in the era of diversity, if young people fail to realize that there are rights and responsibilities of individuals, of any colour and anywhere came from, when they live in public places, and finally, we are led to ask whether young people’s behavior in public to have common goals beneficial to the country, the city, the neighborhood in which they live. The cities are in fact becoming increasingly multiethnic and young people need an intercultural training, they need to form to the patience that the relationship with the stranger requires: intercultural thinking is never automatic, it requires time and requires the possibility to grow.
