Beschreibung
You are invited to submit your paper proposals, which are concerned with (but not limited to) the following questions:
- How do migration and border technologies shape transnational migration and border regimes?
- Which material and epistemic practices manifest or counter migration management/control regimes?
- What are the material/ontological politics involved and what power effects do such entanglements produce?
- What data infrastructures of migration and border control emerge; how are these configured alongside intersecting grids of power such as race, gender, sexuality, ability, nationality, age, generation and in which ways are they/can they be contested?
- What new forms of health and migration surveillance technologies and infrastructures did the Covid-19 global health pandemic trigger which now shape how we ‘see’ migrations and how versions of ‘migrants’ are enacted?
- How are migrant subjects shaped and affected by migration and border technologies?
- How do migrant subjects enact, subvert, appropriate them?
- What role do alternative, interventionist or oppositional technologies and infrastructures enacted by migrant subjects or other actors in solidarity with migrant subjects play?
- How can we critically and publicly engage with migration and border control technologies and infrastructures? What can the methodological and conceptual repertoire of STS add to engage critically with human rights issues, inequalities, public ignorance linked to migration and border control regimes? What role do science and critical scholars have in that process?
You can submit your paper proposal either to specific thematic panels (see descriptions below), or to an open panel. After reviewing and selecting paper proposals for open thematic panels, the scientific committee will invite discussants with appropriate expertise to match the papers of the open thematic panels so as to provide informed commentaries.
