CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS
Diasporas, migration and identities’ has been the subject of a major national research programme funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC) in the UK since 2005. Its central concerns have also been at the heart of the work of the Centre for Research on Nationalism, Ethnicity and Multiculturalism (CRONEM). The aim of this international conference is to examine the past and present impact of diasporas and migration on nation, community, identity and subjectivity, culture and the imagination, place and space, emotion, politics, law and values.

Representation, performance, discourse and language
Subjectivity, emotion and identity
Objects, practices and places
Beliefs, values and laws
The role of youth in relationship to diasporas, migration and identities

In addition to individual papers and poster presentations, we are also calling for proposals for convened symposia.
