Center for the Cultural Sociology of Migration

The Center seeks to bring cultural sociology and migration studies into closer conversation. We see migration as one of the most important issues in societies around the world, whether with regard to the refugee “crisis,” migrant integration, or “failed” multiculturalism.

Join us for monthly meetings in which students and faculty come together to discuss a migration-related text (submitted by a member or an outside colleague).
