ANTH805: Migration and Transnationalism
This unit examines the changes that have occurred in the late nation-state's understanding and management of migration and relates them to changing theoretical viewpoints, particularly the rise of the transnationalist perspective. Two main issues of policy relevance are addressed: the methodological nationalism of social sciences that underpins migration management, and the uses of 'culture' in discourses on integration.
