Fourth mid-term Conference: Othering and the Reconfiguration of Mobility Governance in Europe
The Working Group Criminology of Mobility invites scholars to its fourth mid-term conference to explore these shifting dynamics and discourses of migration, crime and citizenship under the theme “Othering and the Reconfiguration of Mobility Governance in Europe.” The conference aims to bring together criminologists, socio-legal scholars, anthropologists, political scientists, geographers and other social scientists interested in the governance of mobility in its many contemporary forms.
This year’s theme encourages contributions that examine how bordering takes place within societies, across institutional and legal frameworks, and through discourses and interactions between multiple state and non-state actors. We welcome empirical, theoretical and methodological work that addresses how mobility governance and discourses intersect with security, rights, social control, policing, welfare, detention, technology and everyday life across Europe and beyond.
