Sommario/riassunto

Long description: Agency in Transnational Social Protection: Practices of Migrant Families Between Bulgaria and Germany offers a unique and innovative research strategy, analysing social protection arrangements of Bulgarian movers and their families who arrived in Germany in the context of EU enlargements. Critically approaching social tourism debates in the context of EU enlargements this work significantly contributes to a highly undertheorized field of Bulgarian migration in Germany, more specifically in its aspect of social protection within the framework of EU social security coordination. Going beyond the state of art on migration and social protection, Jana Fingarova applies a micro-sociological interpretative approach to develop a typology of migrant agency articulations of subordination, empowerment, and gradually learned assertiveness. Allowing for a temporal-processual perspective on agency, the work overcomes the duality of active vs. passive agents, exposing a more complex picture—apart from social or educational status, family and individual mobility projects play crucial role in the social protection arrangements of EU movers.

Biographical note: Jana Fingarova—Having a background in language teaching and applied psychology, she defended her second master thesis in the area of migration studies at the University of Education Karlsruhe in 2012, winning the 2011 DAAD-Prize for outstanding achievements and social engagement. In 2015, she pursued a scientific



career in the project TRANSWEL “Mobile Welfare in a Transnational Europe: An Analysis of Portability Regimes of Social Security Rights” at Goethe University Frankfurt, which she continued at Brandenburg Technical University (BTU) of Cottbus-Senftenberg. In 2019, she defended her PhD thesis at BTU Cottbus-Senftenberg in the highly complex field of intra-European migration and social protection.

Sommario/riassunto

During the first millennium BCE, complex encounters of Phoenician and Greek colonists with natives of the Iberian Peninsula transformed the region and influenced the entire history of the Mediterranean.  One of the first books on these encounters to appear in English, this volume brings together a multinational group of contributors to explore ancient Iberia's colonies and indigenous societies, as well as the comparative study of colonialism. These scholars-from a range of disciplines including classics, history, anthropology, and archaeology-address such topics as t
