Migration und Transformation of European Borderlands
Scientific semantics, such as ‘borderless Europe’ and ‘cosmopolitan Europe’ suggest a formation of a new European social space, which can not be reduced to particular national societies. This course takes the mentioned semantics as a starting point to analyze geographic mobility, formation of borders and socio-structural change in Europe. The course consists of three particular parts, such as 1) Cross-border mobility and migration, 2) Borders of Europe, and 3) Europeanization as a socio-structural and discoursive Transformation. It combines interdisciplinary perspectives to address a timely topic.
The particular sessions are structured as the following:
I Part: Cross-Border Mobility and Migration
1. Introduction.
2. Transformation of Migration Dynamics in Europe: Current Debates
3. Mobile Elites in Europe?
4. Gendering Migration: A European Dimension?
5. Europeanization of Migration Politics: Questions and Controversies
II Production of Borders and Borderlands
6. Borders of Europe: Concepts and Descriptions
7. Europe as a Borderland: Questioning the Essentialist View of Europe
8. Europeanization of Border Regimes
9. Which Migration Regime Does Emerge through Mobility between the ‚Eastern’ and ‚Western’ Europe?
III Europeanization as a Socio-Structural and Discoursive Transformation
10. Europeanization of Social Inequalities
11. Transformation of Welfare Regimes
12. Post-National Citizenship in Europe
13. Postcolonial Perspectives on Europe
