Lecture Series: FORCED MIGRATION, winter term 2026/27
The lecture series is organised by the Viadrina Center B/ORDERS IN MOTION and brings together interdisciplinary perspectives on forced migration, borders, asylum and the reception of refugees. It examines how experiences of displacement are shaped by immigration and asylum regimes, legal insecurity, racialisation, gendered and intersectional inequalities, and changing infrastructures of border control and reception.
Combining theoretical debate with empirical research and perspectives from policy, activism and practice, the series addresses border externalisation and violence, different forms of vulnerability and protection, refugee agency and collective action, and the everyday negotiation of institutional constraints. It also examines issues of local reception, participation and support, linking broader debates on European migration governance with experiences and practices in specific national and local contexts.
