Course Description
This course explores the multifaceted dimensions of transnational migration in this region of the world. More specifically, we will address the making and policing of borders, the criminalization of \"clandestine\" migration, the profiteering of human smugglers, humanitarian practices, the bureaucratization around citizenship and other forms of formal belonging, and varying contexts of migrant reception. We will engage with readings from anthropology and closely related social science disciplines as well as films to advance critical theory on migration and borderlands.
