Spring 2012:



International Migration, Ethnicity and Gender:

Intersectional Perspectives on Labour, Power and Citizenship

2 April – 4 May, 2012, Intensive on-campus week: 16-20 April
Deadline for applications: 2 March, 2012
Course directors: Anna Bredström, PhD, REMESO and Prof. Diana Mulinari, University of Lund.

This course draws on a variety of theoretical approaches to explore the centrality of gender at different levels of the migration process. It pursues an intersectional analysis of migration and focus on how articulations of class, ethnicity, gender/sexuality and generation shape the experiences of migrants across Europe. Questions concerning international migration, citizenship rights, gender relations and the global economy are discussed. Theories and concepts of migration, ethnicity, racism and multiculturalism will be critically examined from an intersectional perspective.



Migration and Development

21 May – 25 June, 2012, Intensive on-campus week: 4-8 June
Deadline for applications: 20 April, 2012
Course directors: Branka Likic-Brboric, PhD and Prof. Carl-Ulrik Schierup
Guest lecturer: Prof. Stephen Castles, University of Sydney

The migration and development nexus has in recent years risen to the top of the international policy and global governance agenda. This is reflected in many current initiatives to devise new labor migration schemes by which poor countries can acquire developmental benefits from migration in a globalized economy. Students will explore various theoretical and conceptual matters and familiarize with global and regional models of development from the perspective of critical migration research.
