They will develop an understanding of the core literature which will be drawn from feminist and critical migration scholarship across several disciplines.The course objective is provide the key methodological developments in the field of global migration and refugee studies, and be able to reflect upon how these intersect with historical trajectories of migration, and more current modes of forced migration, diaspora and labour migration. |
| Course Contents: |
Course Contents This course will explore and seek to understand how a long history of neoliberal development and worsening global inequalities are connected to structurally determined constructions in the context of global migration. This course connects contemporary trends in global migrations with a historical understanding of how and why migrants move, as well as how modern nation-states have developed a precedent for inclusion and exclusion on the basis of who has the potential to ‘belong’ as a participating citizen. Using an intersectional and interdisciplinary framework, the course is organized around the key topics of the migration studies including work, transnational family, citizenship, and masculinities. |
