Call-for-papers: Survival strategies of irregular migrants: Survey and ethnographic evidence
It is a well known fact that hundreds of thousands of migrants are able to live, sometimes for years, in an irregular status in receiving countries. How do they manage to get access to essential life-chances - from work to lodging, from health to mating - avoiding at the same time detection? Which kind of strategy may substitute for the availability of a publicly-certified identity? How it is possible for them to deal with malfeasance and guile without having access to the legal and political system? Which kind of narratives do the irregular migrants develops to account for their conditions? This questions are strategic research materials for understanding both irregular migration systems and the very same social fabric of receiving societies. They have not, however, been systematically addressed in the literature on irregular migration. The session will accept papers based on empirical evidence, both of quantitative and ethnographic kind.
The XVIIth ISA World Congress of Sociology will be held in Gothenburg, Sweden from 11th to 17th July 2010 (http://www.isa-sociology.org/congress2010/index.htm). Anyone interested in presenting a paper at the session should contact the organizers: Giuseppe Sciortino (giuseppe.sciortino@unitn.it) and Martina Cvajner (martina.cvajner@unitn.it) with copy to the programme coordinator (m.martiniello@ulg.ac.be) before January 1, 2010. Once the presentation is approved by the session chair, participants must submit an abstract of the paper on-line (instructions will be made available in due course). Abstracts are only accepted by the system from those who are already registered for the Congress. The deadline for submission of approved abstracts is May 4, 2010.
