Global Borderlands: getting to the core of Crimmigration

Crimmigration has rapidly become the dominant response to human mobility around the globe. It has emerged, ironically, in tandem with growing economic globalization. For capital, national borders have virtually disappeared, while the walls, virtual and literal, are growing higher for workers and others who need mobility to thrive, and even survive. Race, ethnicity, and personal wealth matter in who gains entry. 

This conference will treat crimmigration and bordering holistically as systems nested within economy and society in subtle, and not-so-subtle, ways. In so doing, the conference calls attention to the various 'faces' and experiences of crimmigration and bordering across the globe as well as to a critical examination of the scholarship so far.

Despite - or maybe because of - the challenging global circumstances many countries are finding themselves in now, we were able to put together an exciting program on September 17 & 18 -which are the public days of the conference. With 4 keynote discussions, 30 panels, a plenary book session and several art & migration sessions the program offers something for everyone who is working on matters of migration and borders. With sessions running between 9 am - 11 pm EST we cater to a broad variety of time zones as well. We are using a professional platform that, besides attending the excellent sessions, will also allow for socializing and networking. 

Although it is no longer possible to submit papers and attend as a presenter, you are still more than welcome to attend!
