> Call for papers: Proposed panel on changing intra- and inter-

> relationships in migration contexts for CARFMS 2010
>
> I am interested in proposing a panel on intra- and inter-generational
> relationships in migration contexts for the third annual conference
> of the
> Canadian Association for Refugee and Forced Migration Studies
> (CARFMS),
> hosted by McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada on May 6-8,
> 2010. The conference theme is “Forced Migration: Challenges and
> Change”.
>
> Within this context, I am soliciting expressions of interest from
> colleagues working on age, generation and family relations to
> participate
> in a proposed panel on dynamic intra- and inter-generational
> relationships
> within contexts of migration. I believe that this could be an
> opportunity
> for researchers and practitioners working with migrants (interpreted
> broadly to include asylum seekers, refugees, internally displaced
> people,
> etc.) at different phases of the life cycle – from infancy to old
> age – to
> come together around the common theme of dynamic generational
> relationships. The panel would seek to address the overarching
> conference
> theme of challenges and change. Papers addressing conceptual,
> theoretical,
> empirical and/or methodological issues are welcome.
>
> Please submit a 250 word abstract and short (one paragraph)
> bibliography
> by January 5th to: cclark-kazak@glendon.yorku.ca. The panel
> proposal will
> then be submitted to the conference organizers, who will take the
> final
> decision on whether or not the panel will be accepted.
