IASFM 16:
Rethinking Forced Migration and Displacement: Theory, Policy, and Praxis
Introduction
The 16th conference of IASFM will take place on July 12-15, 2016 at the Adam
Mickiewicz University in Poznan, Poland. It will be hosted by the Centre for
Migration Studies, the Institute of Ethnology and Cultural Anthropology, and
the Faculty of Law and Public Administration.
This is the first time that IASFM members will gather in Central Europe. The
setting for the 16th IASFM conference is especially important as we watch the
most recent refugee crisis unfold in Europe, including in countries that
historically were refugee-producing spaces and now have to provide durable
solutions for forced migrants fleeing armed conflicts and asking for refuge in
Europe. These developments constitute a significant opportunity to rethink and
redefine forced migration. Existing concepts and definitions are rooted in
historical transformations--political, legal and social—that led to refugee
movements post-World War II and during the Cold War, but are they appropriate
for the diversity and complexity of the 21st century forced migration?
International responses to recent conflicts in Syria and Ukraine have resulted
in a heated public debate about who belongs in Europe and who does not.
However, similar debates about whether refugees should be accepted or not are
also taking place elsewhere in the world. Therefore, it is time to engage in
discussion involving researchers and practitioners on when, how and why forced
migrants have “the right to have rights”, to quote Hannah Arendt. The answers
to these extremely sensitive political problems should be the subject of deep
analysis involving social scientists, legal scholars, historians, and
representatives of humanitarian organizations, policy makers, and when possible
refugees. Such interdisciplinary perspectives will give the participants of the
IASFM 16 the opportunity to develop a deeper reflection on forced migration
concepts, definitions, and issues from historical and contemporary as well as
regional and global perspectives.
Themes
The Program Committee is pleased to invite colleagues in forced migration
studies and practitioners working with forced migrants to submit proposals for
Organized Paper Panels, Roundtables, and Individual Papers for sessions to be
created by the Committee. We will give preference to organized panels and
roundtables over individual papers. However, we will circulate panel proposals
through the IASFM Listserv and Facebook in order to connect panel organizers
with authors of individual papers to facilitate fruitful collaboration. Below
is a list of themes around which paper panels and roundtables should be
organized. We might consider panel proposals on additional sub-themes, but they
must correspond with the overall theme of the conference Rethinking Forced
Migration and Displacement: Theory, Policy, and Praxis.
1. Who is a refugee? Old concepts, new realities
2. Citizenship, nationhood, and forced migration: Ideologies and
policies of inclusion and exclusion
3. From refugee to refuge: The history and evolution of forced migration
in East and Central Europe
4. Forced movements in the Mediterranean Sea and Indian Ocean:
Humanitarianism, human rights or human security?’
5. Regional responses to forced migration: The importance of local
context—economic, social, and cultural—in crafting policy responses
6. UNHCR and IOM: Collaboration potential and pitfalls
7. Towards durable solutions for refugees, internally displaced,
trafficked victims, and other forced migrants: Beyond immediate assistance and
protection
8. State fragility and displacement: Concepts, realities, and the rule
of law
9. Researching forced migration: Engagements, methodologies, and ethics
10. The power of imaginaries: Demonization and celebration of forced
migration in words and images
11. Gender and sexualities: Protection challenges and possibilities
12. The long journey home: Return and reintegration
13. The struggle of belonging: Forming and reforming social identities
of young refugees and asylum seekers
14. Climate change and displacement
Rules of participation
Conference participants may only make one paper presentation. In addition to a
paper presentation, they may also play a second role: organize/chair a panel
and/or roundtable or be a discussant on a panel or roundtable.
Paper Panels
The Program Committee will give preference to panel proposals over individual
papers. Panels organized on the basis of any of the proposed themes will ensure
cohesive discussions throughout the conference. The Committee will look
favorably on imaginative panels that incorporate comparative perspectives,
cross-disciplinary boundaries, and engage debates between scholars and
practitioners and when possible forced migrants. We will limit panels to a
maximum of two consecutive ninety-minute sessions, each of which can hold a
maximum of four papers. Paper presentations should last between 15-20 minutes
allowing for discussion and questions from the audience.
Roundtable Discussions
The Program Committee encourages organization of roundtable discussions
involving forced migration scholars, policy-makers, practitioners, and if
possible refugees and forced migrants. Roundtables might also be a good venue
for doctoral students and young migration scholars to exchange ideas about
research ethics, methodological issues, peer review, etc. Roundtables organized
by doctoral students might also involve editors or experts from whom the
emerging scholars would like to learn. Roundtable discussions are limited to 90
minutes. There is no possibility of having a double roundtable session. The
number of participants in a roundtable should not exceed six persons to allow
for a robust discussion and questions from the audience.
Individual papers
As indicated above, we will give preference to panel and roundtable proposals,
but will consider individual papers provided that they correspond with one of
the themes proposed above.
Submission of panel, roundtable, and paper proposal
All panel, roundtable, and paper proposals must be submitted online by February
1, 2016 through the following link: http://tinyurl.com/ns99dzd . Late
submissions will not be accepted. If you experience any technical difficulties
in submitting your abstract, please contact Michele Millard at
mmillard@xxxxxxxx.
Language
The official language of the IASFM is English. All papers and roundtable
discussions must be presented in English.

IASFM 2016 Conference Travel Fund:
https://www.gofundme.com/IASFM16
Friends, please consider donating a few dollars to this fund. IASFM has
recently lost its major supporter, the MacArthur Foundation, which discontinued
their migration program. As we look for another major donor, the fund-raising
committee is resorting to all sorts of unorthodox measures. Conference
registration and membership fees pay for the meeting, but we need money to
support participation of graduate students, practitioners, scholars, and where
feasible refugees from low-income countries. Be generous and spread the word!
The IASFM 2016 will be held in Poznan, Poland. This is the first time that
IASFM will meet in Central Europe! In the past we gathered in different parts
of the world--Colombia, India, Uganda, Cyprus, Egypt, Canada, Brazil, Thailand,
South Africa, and the U.K. --but never in the center of Europe, the continent
where the largest refugee crisis since WWII is currently unfolding. IASFM uses
these conferences to bring together academics, practitioners, and refugees to
discuss myriads of forced migration issues to inform forced migration
scholarship and practice.
In order to make the 2016 conference in Poland as inclusive as possible, we are
seeking donations to a travel fund to support participation of graduate
students, scholars and practitioners from low-income countries as well as
refugees. Every dollar counts! Even the smallest donation will make a
difference. By helping foster a diverse group of attendees, especially
participants from the Global South, we hope to enrich the discussions and
content of the conference.
The conference will be hosted by the Center for Migration Studies (CeBaM) and
the Faculty of Law and Public Administration at the Adam Mickiewicz University.
