Dear Friends and Colleagues,
On behalf of the Berlin Institute for Comparative Social
Research (BIVS) I would like to invite you to to apply for a
scholarship to attend the forthcoming EUROFOR Marie Curie
conference on "Politics of the Exclusion and Return: The
Phenomena of Diaspora Formations" in Budapest, Hungary.
After the successful staging of the past events in Italy,
Greece, Malta and Slovenia, the series of twelve scientific
conferences on migration management is clearly gaining
momentum. The past conferences turrned out to be successful
platforms for the exchange of knowledge and fruitful debate
of research ventures in the fields under review.
The next event will take place from 12 - 15th April 2007 in
Budapest. Approx. 30 young researchers (mostly PhD
candidates) as well as several experienced researchers,
scholars and policy-makers will be attending the event.
There are 32 Marie Curie scholarships available for young
and experienced researchers from EU Member States and Third
Countries, covering travel and accommodation for this four
day conference.
This particular event focuses on diaspora formations,
minority politics and trans-state relations. The phenomena
of diaspora formations will be discussed in an
interdisciplinary and comparative perspective.
Throughout the workshops and seminars the following topics
will be addressed:
- Concepts and Notions of Diaspora
- Diaspora Communities: Case studies
- The Role of Diasporas in Contemporary Conflicts
- Ethnic Entrepreneurs in the Diaspora
- Trans-State Politics in the 21st Century: The impact of
diasporas on changes in the homelands
As usual in the Marie Curie EUROFOR conferences, Saturday
morning will be dedicated to the presentation and analysis
of the local situation. In addition, two workshops will
serve as platform to discuss methodological issues and
problems that arise during the course of the researchers' work.
Find attached the call for papers as well as the preliminary
programme for the conference in Hungary.
The deadline for paper proposal submission of the conference
in Budapest is 31 January.
For download of the conference reader (including detailed
application guidelines), see:

Since we made usage of various electronic distribution lists
for this call for papers, it may be that you receive this
message more than once. We thank you for your understanding
and apologise for this inconvenience.
We look forward to receiving your application.
Best wishes and kind regards, on behalf of the EUROFOR
Conference Team,
Tilman Hannig
