The 3rd Next-Generation Global Workshop Migration:Global Reconstruction of Intimate and Public Spheres

Overview of the Next-Generation Global Workshop

The purpose of the Next-Generation Global workshop is to provide scholars with an opportunity at an early point in their careers to give presentations, exchange opinions with their peers from various parts of the world, and learn how to organize an international academic workshop. We plan to hold the workshop annually for five years, and are currently approaching the third event.
This year, we aim to focus on Migration as the main theme as this has been a contested concept recently in social and human sciences. Aside from traditional notions of labor migration, the recent migration phenomena includes migration for reproductive work such as caring and domestic work to strengthen and maintain the welfare functions of family, involving household workers and marriage migrants. For the sending countries, the mainstreaming of policies encouraging emigration has been taken up within their general economic policy. As a result, the formation of transnational families in the feminization of migration has become apparent as a pressing issue in the last decade. From the viewpoint of migrants as agents, the creation of the transnational family as a survival technique has become a more conscious choice in order to avert poverty risks.
The justification of migration at both production and reproduction levels in the process of the globalization of the world economy has led to restructuring of welfare under demographic changes. There have been many micro-level transformations in the migration landscape, such as communication by webcam, NGOs to support migrants in undemocratic societies, transnational families, and surrogate mothers/children. It would be reasonable to assume that issues such as the gender division of labor, media usage, and family relationships, including matters related to sexuality, are likely to change when people move across borders. Thus migration can be considered a strong factor reconstructing both intimate and public spheres.
The Organizing Committee will arrange several sessions in accordance with the topics applicants will present. Be aware that this method of organization is different from the last year’s. For this workshop, we also welcome presentations on all topics, NOT necessarily related to migration. These will be placed in a free session if accepted. We look forward to receiving your high-quality applications.
