Call for Papers Theme: Norms and Values in Institutions, Societies and Migration Type: IMISCOE PhD Lead Workshop Institution: International Migration, Integration and Social Cohesion in Europe Research Network (IMISCOE) Malmö Institute for Studies of Migration, Diversity and Welfare (MIM), Malmö University Location: Online Date: 28.–29.4.2021 Deadline: 25.1.2021 __________________________________________________ This is a PhD lead workshop on Norms and Values hosted by the Malmö Institute for Studies of Migration, Diversity and Welfare (MIM), held online via Zoom on April 28th-29th. Owing to societal transformations at an increasingly high pace, norms and values have taken centre stage in many contemporary political debates and social subjectivities. As society transforms, so does the diffusion, transmission, and education of norms and values. Many social science disciplines have explicitly and implicitly engaged in these debates and done profound work to inform our understanding of these transformations. However, definitions and usages of these salient analytical concepts vary across the social sciences and can become conflated or vague. Keeping analytical diversity in mind, the workshop aims to gather individuals from a variety of disciplinary backgrounds to discuss the study of norms and values within their work. The current call for abstracts extends an invitation to academics across the globe who work with norms and/or values. Below you can find the panels that will be featured in the workshop: - Absence of language, reproduction of discourse and value transmission around racialized identities - Answering to the roll call: challenges and good practices for the integration of immigrants’ children at school - COVID-19 and People on the Move – Prospects for Reshaping the Norms of Human Mobility in the European Union’s Migration Management - Critical Gender Perspectives to Family Reunification Regulations and Administrative Practice - Equality for Immigrants in Theory and Practice - In the Name of Liberalism?
