Participants in this two-semester research seminar will study the latest trends of asylum politics and protection-related matters for refugees and forced migrants from global case studies. We will critically engage with current changes in border patrolling, migration monitoring, deterrence mechanisms, maritime interceptions, externalization and outsourcing of protection duties, offshore processing of protection claims, offshore detention, as well as border struggles resulting from these changes. Under supervision and peer-to-peer learning, participants will each work on an individual mini research project investigates a relevant themes and trends, including human smuggling, stuckedness, hotspot system, criminalization of solidarity and humanitarian actors, violations of the non-refoulement principle and chain deportation, the spectacle of illegality etc. pp. Methodologically, the main focus will be on applying qualitative methods for collecting data and others, if deemed suitable. The main objective of this research seminar is support students throughout the process of conducting an independent research project, which includes detecting a relevant research topic and formulating a proper research question, selecting relevant readings, designing a suitable data collection plan/schedule, conducting the research, collecting data, presenting findings to peers and finally writing a research report. This Lehrforschung/research seminar is open to advanced students who have already successfully attended introductory courses on forced migration and qualitative methods.
