Dear all,
We invite you to submit paper proposals to the panel “Banglascapes in
Southern Europe: comparative perspectives” (P14). The panel is part of the
25th European Conference on South Asian Studies (ECSAS), to be held between
the 24th to 27th of July 2018, at the EHESS, Paris.
Here is the abstract*:* In recent years, Bangladeshi migrations in Europe
have significantly changed. If the UK continues to be one of the main
destination, Southern European countries, such as Italy, Spain, Portugal
and Greece have assumed a new role in European Bangladeshiscapes. As argued
by several authors, Southern Europe is both a final destination, and a new
scenario for making a living and an increasingly important hub for the
Bengali diaspora and transnationalism linking Bangladeshi migrant
communities in Europe and worldwide, and, sometimes, a stage in onward
migration routes. Despite the crucial role and importance of Southern
Europe for Bangladeshi transnational migrations, and a growing body of
literature on the topic, there is still no comparative approach that looks
at this segment of the Bangladeshi diasporic landscape.
The objective of this panel is to bring together scholars who focus on
different aspects of Bangladeshi migrations in Southern European countries,
considering the relationship between emplacement, migration routes,
incorporation trajectories, relationships with Bangladesh (economic,
political, religious, etc.), ties with the UK and the different political
and economic opportunity structures in different Mediterranean countries.
All proposals must be sent though the website: https://www.
ecsas2018.org/call-for-papers until the *30/11/2017 *and should have a
title and a short (300 characters) and a long abstract (1750 characters).
Please circulate!
José, Francesco and Andrea
