Problematising migration and diaspora governance: From racialised migration control to 'minority' participation

18 Jun 2020, 15:00

1h 30m

Dobson Room

Panel Colonial, Postcolonial and Decolonial Working Group

Description

This panel interrogates the multiple ways in which migrants and diasporas have related to governance and economic practices. How have nations and regional organisations attempted to govern and control the movement of people, through securitising and racialising practices? And how have migrants and diaspora communities challenged such practicies by participating in and remaking existing governance practices?
