…when the category ‘migration’ lost its innocence for migration scholars. And what now? A plea for dialogue

Just published! I was invited by Comparative Migration Studies (CMS) to contribute a short article on ‘categorization’ and ‘technologies of migranticization’ to their anniversary special issue.

I warmly thank CMS for this invitation and..... Congratulations on your 10th birthday!

Gendernativism and Liberal Subjecthood: The Cases of Forced Marriage and the Burqa Ban in Switzerland Abstract. Ideas of gender equality and women’s rights have come to play a crucial role in national politics of belonging and Othering, in Europe and beyond

In Genf wird wiedermal im Namen des Universalismus ein Burkini-Verbot gefordert, darüber zerstreiten sich die Schwesterorganisationen Licra CH/FR wie davor Terre des Femmes CH/DE. Mit @janinedahinden.bsky.social haben wir diese Debatten als Gendernativism analysiert: academic.oup.com/sp/article-a...
