  • Annual Report 2019
    ANNUAL REPORT 2019 SAR Italy is a partnership between Italian higher education institutions and research centres and Scholars at Risk, an international network of higher education institutions aimed at fostering the promotion of academic freedom and protecting the fundamental rights of scholars across the world. In constituting SAR Italy, the governance structures of adhering institutions, as well as researchers, educators, students and administrative personnel send a strong message of solidarity to scholars and institutions that experience situations whereby their academic freedom is at stake, and their research, educational and ‘third mission’ activities are constrained. Coming together in SAR Italy, the adhering institutions commit to concretely contributing to the promotion and protection of academic freedom, alongside over 500 other higher education institutions in 40 countries in the world.

  • Evolution of Long-Distance Students' Mobility
    Evolution of long-distance students’ mobility: the role of the air transport service in Italy Mattia Cattaneo1,, Paolo Malighetti1, Stefano Paleari1, Renato Redondi2 1Department of Engineering, University of Bergamo 2Department of Mechanical Engineering, University of Brescia Abstract This paper studies the impact of the air transport service on university accessibility. Relying on the population of Italian airports and Italian traditional universities in the period 2003- 2012, we find that improving air transportation connectivity (travel speed, presence of airports alternatives, presence of low cost carriers) increases the accessibility to university for long-distance students-i.e., students living on a distance of at least 300 km from the university of attendance. Second, we find that the evolution of the air transport service has played a role in facilitating higher education accessibility. Over the last decade, the air transport service has moderated the negative impact of the distance on universities’ attractiveness, providing to long-distance students more university alternatives.

Introduction In the last decades, the evolution of transport services have profoundly transformed the mobility and accessibility towards urban and rural areas, especially considering long-distance trips (Garmendia et al., 2011).

  • An Ottoman Story Until the End: Reading Fan Noli's Post
    Journal of Balkan and Black Sea Studies Year 3, Issue 5, December 2020, pp. 121-144. An Ottoman Story Until the End: Reading Fan Noli’s Post-Mediterranean Struggle in America, 1906-1922 Isa Blumi Abstract: As the lives of so many men and women in the late nineteenth century Ottoman Balkans collapsed, many began to invest in ways to circumvent the accompanying powers of the modern state. An equal number attempted to manage the changes by availing themselves to the evolving Ottoman state with the hope of fusing efforts of reform with the emerging political-cultural structures of the larger world that was explicitly geared to tear the multi-ethnic Ottoman Balkans apart. By exploring the manner in which some members of the Balkans’ cultural elite adapted as their worlds transformed, this article introduces new methods of interpreting and narrating transitional periods such as those impacting men like Fan S. Noli. His itinerary itself reveals just how complex life in the Balkans and Black Sea would be during the 1878-1922 period, but not one entirely subordinate to the ethno-nationalist agenda so often associated with him. Keywords: Albanian Nationalism, Egypt, Diaspora, Migration, Autocephalous Orthodox Churches, Ottoman Empire, United States of America Assoc. Prof. Dr., American University of Sharjah, ORCID ID: 0000-0003-3591-741X e-mail: [email protected] Submitted: 16.09.2020, Accepted: 15.12.2020 ISA BLUMI Introduction Many men and women who lived through the dramatic transformations of the late Ottoman Empire (1878-1922) contributed their fair share to the process. As their Ottoman homelands collapsed in face of pressure from Western banks demanding payment of debts, the resulting wars transformed the state institutions that were increasingly invested in socially managing its subjects.

    Of Women, Faith, and Nation: American Protestantism and the Kyrias School For Girls, Albania by Nevila Pahumi A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (History) in the University of Michigan 2016 Doctoral Committee: Professor Pamela Ballinger, Co-Chair Professor John V.A. Fine, Co-Chair Professor Fatma Müge Göçek Professor Mary Kelley Professor Rudi Lindner Barbara Reeves-Ellington, University of Oxford © Nevila Pahumi 2016 For my family ii Acknowledgements This project has come to life thanks to the support of people on both sides of the Atlantic. It is now the time and my great pleasure to acknowledge each of them and their efforts here. My long-time advisor John Fine set me on this path. John’s recovery, ten years ago, was instrumental in directing my plans for doctoral study. My parents, like many well-intended first generation immigrants before and after them, wanted me to become a different kind of doctor. Indeed, I made a now-broken promise to my father that I would follow in my mother’s footsteps, and study medicine. But then, I was his daughter, and like him, I followed my own dream. When made, the choice was not easy. But I will always be grateful to John for the years of unmatched guidance and support. In graduate school, I had the great fortune to study with outstanding teacher-scholars. It is my committee members whom I thank first and foremost: Pamela Ballinger, John Fine, Rudi Lindner, Müge Göcek, Mary Kelley, and Barbara Reeves-Ellington.
