The international conference “Media+Generations”  (Milan, Catholic University) has been a good success.

In the conference, the Mediagenerations group (research units of five italian universities, coordinated by Fausto Colombo, Giovanni Boccia Artieri, Luigi Del Grosso Destreri, Francesca Pasquali and Michele Sorice) has presented the findings of the research. The conference proceedings and the research findings will be soon available on line and in two specific publications.

“Boom”

Fausto Colombo’s last book “Boom. Storia di quelli che non hanno fatto il ‘68″ has been presented in Urbino, in the frame of the fourth Media Generations Research Group Meeting.
