Review of Adriana Holland Final Paper Proposal - by Beatrice Papapietro

   Adriana paper is well structured, it stated a clear research question  and
   a relevant  sub-question  which  opens  up  the  research  to  investigate
   inequalities  in  the  treatment   of  migrant  from   the  part  of   the
   municipality. The  title  is  interesting and  I  particularly  liked  the
   metaphor of 'opening up the  city'.The paper also introduced the  research
   very well by explaining the socio-historical development of the city. Also
   it  transpires  from  the  paper  that  Adriana  has  been  engaging  with
   transnational literature and she has a  clear idea of the literature  that
   will be  used  in the  paper.  I found  particularly  good that  she  also
   identified the  limitation  of her  research  due to  time  and  resources
   restriction. This is  a sign of  very down to  earth approach to  research
   that often is difficult to attain.

   I would be  interested in  understanding better  what is  meant by  'urban
   self-presentation' and the  rationale behind  the choice  of the  internet
   presentation of Brno municipalities concerning the immigrants as  research
   area. Also there are few spelling mistakes in the paper that are  probably
   due to distraction and that could have been avoided.
