Migration/Immigration Network

The Migration/Immigration network comprises younger and established scholars from around the world. Sessions focus on different aspects of long-distance and short-distance migration. Papers often focus on processes of cultural exchange, adaptation, group and network formation but also dissimilation. Our sessions tend to be interdisciplinary and overlap with other SSHA networks. Participants are encouraged to explore new methodological issues and to present results of their research. We particularly encourage younger scholars to submit proposals. The Migration/Immigration network fosters international exchange and offers an outlet for reflection and analysis across disciplinary boundaries.
