This talkreflects on the ambiguities and contradictory aspects of the figure of themigrant and the ways in which this figure challenges us to rethink core concepts such as European identity, Europeancitizenship, justice, ethics, liberty,tolerance, and hospitality.African asylum seekers rescued off boats and taken aboard an Italy navy ship, June 8, 2014.&#160; Credit: Massimo Sestini&#160;La séance sera en anglais.
