Workshop: Globalization, borders, and new geographies of inequality

The cross-faculty Migrancy Research Group at Lancaster University, with the support of the NorthWest Social Science Doctoral Training Partnership (@NWSSDTP), is hosting a workshop for early career scholars and PhD students on the theme of ‘Globalization, borders, and new geographies of inequality’. In the interactive one-day workshop, participants will showcase their work in short presentations and engage a discussion on the changing political geography of borders and emerging research directions in the field. Gathering PhD students and early career researchers from several UK and European universities, one of the main aims of the event is to strengthen and broaden existing networks among researchers investigating from a critical perspective the turbulent politics surrounding migration and borders.

The workshop will take place at Lancaster University, on 19 February 2020 (venue: Seminar Room 3, Faraday Building)
