Call for Papers "Migration Across the Disciplines" Interdisciplinary Conference Centre for the Study of Migration, Queen Mary, University of London London (United Kingdom) 30 June - 1 July 2011 __________________________________________________ From: Parvati Nair <[email protected]> Few will dispute that the study of migration crosses disciplinary borders. The Centre for the Study of Migration opens a space for contact for migration scholars based across Faculties. This conference seeks to gather together multi-disciplinary approaches to the study of migration from scholars working on the study of migration. The broad areas covered will be: historical approaches to migration, the economics of migration, migration and the law, migration and linguistic change, migration and culture, migration, asylum and exile, migration and health, migration and state policies. Papers or panels on concepts and topics such as religion, spatiality, transnationalism, ethics and the question of alterity and hybridity will be encouraged, as will work that is interdisciplinary. The aim will be to explore the extent to which the study of migration is by nature interdisciplinary and to foment dialogue across disciplines and boundaries. Offers of papers and panels are invited from those engaged in research at postdoctoral as well as at postgraduate levels. Submissions of abstracts are encouraged from postgraduate students. Please send a title, together with a brief biography and an abstract of approximately 250 words to Professor Parvati Nair ([email protected]) by March 11th 2011.
