The Summer School on Migration and Gender offers an interdisciplinary approach to the ways in which migration intersects with gender. Gender is a constitutive element of migration. The course will discuss both this idea, and reversing the formula, it will examine the role of migration in shaping gender, understood as relational and performative. A particular focus will be on identity in relation to human rights and law, language, labor and culture. The course is an innovative exploration among three scholars in legal studies, literature and sociolinguistics, and the students. Each discipline brings a unique perspective on the problem and set of instruments to analyze and deepen our understanding of migration and gender. This Summer School is particularly timely in this moment of history, in which migration is transforming societies and shaping gender.
Suitable for: MA and PhD Students in Sociology, Gender Studies, Literature, Human rights, Law, Labor and Cultural Studies.
