Dear all,

we would like to draw your attention to the 7 AnthroMob-endorsed panels at EASA2018 in Stockholm. We also have one AnthroMob-endorsed lab.

Our network meeting will take place on Wednesday 15 August, from 17.00-18.45 in Horsal 5 (B5) to which all are invited!
After the meeting, we’d like you to join us for food and drinks at Baras Backe, on Götgatan 33 on Södermalm. It is located just next to the metro stop Slussen at about 12-15 minutes from the University.

We are looking forward to seeing many of you in Stockholm!

Best wishes,

The AnthroMob convenors

PANELS:

P080 - Pacing Mobilities: a consideration of shifts in the timing, intensity, tempo and duration of mobility [ANTHROMOB]
https://nomadit.co.uk/easa/easa2018/conferencesuite.php/panels/6321

Location Horsal 11 (F11)
Date and Start Time 14 Aug, 2018 at 10:30
Sessions 2
Convenors: Noel B. Salazar (University of Leuven), Vered Amit (Concordia University)
Discussant Karen Fog Olwig (University of Copenhagen), Karsten Paerregaard (University of Gothenburg)
In this panel, we want to extend the temporal interrogation of particular forms and experiences of mobility to consider more fully the dimensions involved in the 'pacing' of movement, including aspects such as timing, duration, frequency, intensity and scope.


P081 - Mobilising policies: indolence, zealousness, discretionality and beyond [ANTHROMOB]
https://nomadit.co.uk/easa/easa2018/conferencesuite.php/panels/6438

Location Aula Magna-Kungsstenen
Date and Start Time 16 Aug, 2018 at 09:00
Sessions 2
Convenors: Jérémie Voirol (Graduate Institute ), Diego Valdivieso (The University of Manchester), Juan del Nido (University of Manchester)
Drawing on mobility beyond its spatial connotations and thinking broadly of policy, authority and governance, this panel studies how policies organising flows of people, information or resources are themselves mobilised, created, invoked or subverted by those responsible for their application.


P082 - Moving the goods: maritime mobility and logistics labour [ANTHROMOB]
https://nomadit.co.uk/easa/easa2018/conferencesuite.php/panels/6467

Location SO-D215
Date and Start Time 16 Aug, 2018 at 09:00
Sessions 2
Convenors: Hege Leivestad (Stockholm University), Johanna Markkula (Stanford University)
Chair Hege Leivestad
Discussant Gustav Peebles (The New School)

Through complex systems of logistics, commodities are moved overseas following a "just-in-time" logic. This panel extends the anthropological research on mobility by asking how a focus on maritime logistics, infrastructures and labour can contribute to our understandings of the global economy.


P083 - Creating locality in mobile times: intimacy, friendship and belonging between digital and physical co-presence [ANTHROMOB]
https://nomadit.co.uk/easa/easa2018/conferencesuite.php/panels/6487

Location Horsal 5 (B5)
Date and Start Time 17 Aug, 2018 at 09:00
Sessions 2
Convenors: Fabiola Mancinelli (Universitat de Barcelona), Chima Michael Anyadike-Danes (University of Warwick)

Building on the notion of locality as a socially produced, relational process, this panel explores how those leading mobile lives practice both place-making and community-making, examining the role played by digital technologies and social media.


P084 - Migration and the imaginaries of 'good life' [ANTHROMOB]
https://nomadit.co.uk/easa/easa2018/conferencesuite.php/panels/6446

Location Horsal 5 (B5)
Date and Start Time 15 Aug, 2018 at 09:00
Sessions 2
Convenors: Anna Horolets (University of Warsaw), Unnur Dís Skaptadóttir (University of Iceland)
Discussant Valerio Simoni (The Graduate Institute, Geneva)

We invite paper proposals that consider migration as a moral practice, focus on the relation between mobility and migrants' imaginaries of 'good life' in any stage, context or type of migratory situation, and discuss how the ideas of what is 'good' are informed by mobility in contemporary societies.


P085 - Engineering Mobilities: Exploring the infrastructures mediating transnational highly-skilled migration [ANTHROMOB]
https://nomadit.co.uk/easa/easa2018/conferencesuite.php/panels/6551

Location SO-B487
Date and Start Time 15 Aug, 2018 at 09:00
Sessions 2
Convenors: Sazana Jayadeva (GIGA German Institute of Global and Area Studies), Yassmin Ahmed (The American University in Cairo)
This panel investigates the infrastructures which mediate the movement of highly-skilled migrants across international borders, and how they operate.


P094 - (Un)Moving, Becoming and 'Kinning': The Times of Migration and the Nexus with Family [ANTHROMOB]
https://nomadit.co.uk/easa/easa2018/conferencesuite.php/panels/6436

Location SO-F497
Date and Start Time 15 Aug, 2018 at 09:00
Sessions 2
Convenors: Flavia Cangia (University of Neuchatel NCCR - on the move), Brigitte Suter (Malmö University)

This panel explores the nexus between time and family in the context of migration and mobility. In particular, it is interested in how the complex times and temporalities of migration interplay with kin practices, feelings and meanings of family and intimate relationships.

LAB L016:

Bodies-in-motion: experiencing the role of 'moving' in anthropological praxis [AnthroMob]
https://nomadit.co.uk/easa/easa2018/conferencesuite.php/panels/7044

Location Outside
Date and Start Time 17 Aug, 2018 at 11:15
Sessions 1
Convenors: Patrick Laviolette (Tallinn Univ / UCL), Noel B. Salazar (University of Leuven), Paolo S. H. Favero (University of Antwerp), Shireen Walton (University College London)
Chair Noel Salazar
Discussant Patrick Laviolette

This laboratory allows participants to acknowledge and challenge issues of pace, rhythm, tempo, velocity and flow surrounding their own movements as well as the people, 'things' and contexts                                   circulating around them, be it during fieldwork or while teaching. This laboratory will take place outside.
