Course: A Lexicon of Migration
is course examines the history of migration from local, national, and global perspectives. It also traces the emergence of new modes of border regulation and migration governance as well as novel forms of migrant cultural production and representation. Above all, it aims to provide students with the tools to engage critically with many of the concepts and buzzwords--among them "asylum," "border," "belonging," "citizenship," and "illegality"--that define contemporary public debates.
NOTE: A Lexicon of Migration is a Bard network course, and my course was coordinated with similar courses at the American University of Central Asia, Al-Quds Bard, and Bard College Berlin. My collaborators were Shirin Tumenbaeva (AUCA), Jens Haendeler (AQB), and Agata Lisiak (BCB).
