Description
This module attempts to ground the analysis of human movement by focusing on the specific historical, sociological, economic, political, and cultural impact of migration from the 'migant's point of view'. Accordingly, this interdisciplinary course will locate 'drivers' for migration in the post-war period, trace the settlement processes, engage with the myriad challenges and developments migrants faced as new workers and citizens, before exploring the impact on succeeding generations. Through a salient ethnographic perspective of experiences, the course will provide students with overarching and critical theoretical and methodological approaches to the study of migration, diaspora, and the nation-state in a globalised late modern context.
