Call for papers: Proposed panel on changing intra- and
inter-generational relationships in migration contexts for CARFMS 2010
I am interested in proposing a panel on intra- and inter-generational
relationships in migration contexts for the third annual conference of
the Canadian Association for Refugee and Forced Migration Studies
(CARFMS), hosted by McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada on
May 6-8, 2010. The conference theme is 'Forced Migration: Challenges
and Change'ť.
Within this context, I am soliciting expressions of interest from
colleagues working on age, generation and family relations to
participate in a proposed panel on dynamic intra- and inter-generational
relationships within contexts of migration. I believe that this could be
an opportunity for researchers and practitioners working with migrants
(interpreted broadly to include asylum seekers, refugees, internally
displaced people, etc.) at different phases of the life cycle - from
infancy to old age - to come together around the common theme of dynamic
generational relationships. The panel would seek to address the
overarching conference theme of challenges and change. Papers addressing
conceptual, theoretical, empirical and/or methodological issues are welcome.
Please submit a 250 word abstract and short (one paragraph) bibliography
by January 5th, 2010 to: [log in to unmask] The panel
proposal will then be submitted to the conference organizers, who will
take the final decision on whether or not the panel will be accepted.
