Wednesday 24th of May 2017

09:00 – 09:30 Registration and coffee

09:30 – 10:00 Opening remarks

First Panel (10:00 – 13:30)

Context, volume and types of migration – Europe andCentral-North-America in comparison. For the period of the new century, the different types of migration (labour migration, family reunification, forced migration/refugees, educational migration etc.) and their national and regional contexts (demography, labour markets, organised violence, humanitarian crisis, climate change, human rights etc.) will be presented in a comparative perspective.

Presenters

  • Jorge Durand / Universidad de Guadalajara
  • Demetrios Papademetriou / Migration Policy Institute
  • Silvia Giorguli / El Colegio de México
  • Hein de Haas/ University of Amsterdam
  • Discussant: Claudia Masferrer / El Colegio deMéxico
  • Chair: Ludger Pries / El Colegio de México & RuhrUniversity

13:30 – 15:00 Lunch

Second panel (15:00 – 18:30)

Structure and dynamics of labour migration – Europe andCentral-North-America. Labour migration represents a crucial part of migration policies and regulations. Especially in the case of North America there is a decreasing, but still significant dynamic of irregular labour migration. The structure of stocks and flows of labour migration in Europa and North America vary substantially according to age, education, gender and other factors.

Presenters

  • Pia Orrenius / Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas
  • Francisco Torres / University of Valencia
  • Liliana Meza / Independent researcher
  • Jean-Michel Lafleur/ University of Liège
  • Discussant: Agustín Escobar / Centro de Investigaciones y Estudios Superiores en Antropología Social
  • Chair: Gustavo Verduzco / El Colegio de México

Thursday 25th of May 2017

Third Panel (09:30 – 13:00)

Contexts and dynamics of forced migration – Europe andCentral-North-America. Forced and refugee migration is of increasing importance in Europe as well as in North America. Organised violence, effects of climate change, lack of public security or predictability of living conditions and other factors fuel “mixed migration flows” that are structured by social and organisational networks, by material and imagined borders. Chain migration and living projects changing during the migration course are frequent.

Presenters

  • Andreas Feldmann / University of Illinois at Chicago
  • Ludger Pries / El Colegio de México & Ruhr University
  • Maria D. Paris / El Colegio de la Frontera Norte
  • Attila Melegh / Hungarian Demographic Research Institute
  • Discussant: Alisa Winton / El Colegio de la Frontera Sur
  • Chair: Nitzan Shoshan / El Colegio de México

13:00 – 13:30 Guided visit to the exhibition of the National Human RightsCommission

(CNDH) at El Colegio deMéxico

13:30 – 15:00 Lunch

Fourth Panel (15:00 – 18:30)

Challenges and paths for new research agendas – Europe andNorth America. Shifting contexts and patterns of migration, being it labour or forced migration, require new research strategies. The simple classic scheme of “individual rational choice decision to move from one place of origin to one place of destiny” has to be broadened. New topics like the linkages between climate change, organised violence and different types of migration or the interplay of political regimes and civil society activities have to be addressed. Also, data gathering strategies and methods should be reconsidered in order to overcome, e.g. longitudinal cuts, the analysis of trajectories and biographies, as well as personal and organisational networks analysis could enrich theory and empirical findings.

Presenters

  • Fernando Riosmena / University of Colorado at Boulder
  • Sona Kalantaryan / European University Institute
  • James Hollifield / Southern Methodist University
  • Pablo Mateos / Centro de Investigaciones y Estudios Superiores en Antropología Social
  • Discussant: Ludger Pries / El Colegio de México & RuhrUniversity
  • Chair: Claudia Masferrer / El Colegio de México
