Beyond Integration : Challenges of Belonging in Diaspora and Exile
- 2001
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Eight ethnologists, anthropologists and sociologists contributing to this edited collection analyse processes of identity formation among people living out of their national states. Their contributions are based on research in Sweden, Denmark, Germany, Macedonia and Croatia. The focus is shifted from the discussion of integration of immigrants in the country of residence, to the transnational aspects of their identifications, political concerns and everyday lifes.

Conviviality at the Crossroads : The poetics and politics of everyday encounters
- 2020
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (refereegranskat)abstract
- With the 2015 refugee migration and its aftermath as a main reference and focal point, this anthology uses Conviviality as a lens to examine the current challenges to democracy. Conviviality and the inter-related concepts Cosmopolitanism and Creolisation are assumed to provide tools for analysis as well as forms for “cross-cutting communication”. Originally introduced by Ivan Illich (1973), conviviality was re-launched and re-defined by Paul Gilroy (2004) against a backdrop of social, racial and religious tensions in post-imperial Britain, denoting an ability to be at ease in the presence of diversity without restaging communitarian conceptions of ethnic and racial difference, and has subsequently been refined to provide “an analytical tool to ask and explore in what ways, and under what conditions, people constructively create modes of togetherness” (Nowicka & Vertovec 2014: 2). In Gilroy’s understanding conviviality was a substitute for cosmopolitanism, which in his view had been hijacked as a pretext for Western “supposedly benign imperialism” in the aftermath of 9/11 and the war on terror (Gilroy 2004: 66). But rather than replacing one concept with the other, this anthology seeks to explore the interconnections – commonalities and differences – between cosmopolitanism and conviviality. Creolisation is the other supplementary concept, by constituting a valid alternative to conventional interpretations of cross-cultural contact and allowing agency and influence to hitherto marginal and subordinate cultures and peoples (Cohen and Toninato 2010).

Affect and Material Culture : Perspectives and Strategies
- 2016
-
Ingår i: Sensitive Objects. - : Nordic Academic Press. - 9789187675669 ; , s. 9-28
-
Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- In this introduction to a collection of essays, the editors present how the analysis of affects is grounded in relevant philosophical traditions, review some of the achievements within the humanities and social sciences and raise important methodological issues for ethnology and anthropology. The book is born out of a curiosity to find out how ethnographic research into material culture could benefit from achievements in the growing field of affect and emotion studies.

Transnational regimes and migrant responses in an altered historical conjuncture
- 2018
-
Ingår i: Nordic Journal of Migration Research. - : Nordic Migration Research. - 1799-649X. ; 8:4, s. 199-200
-
Tidskriftsartikel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Those who live their lives across the borders of nation-states as well as scholars and policy makers who research transnational lives are facing rapid alterations in mobility regimes. The articles in this special issue represent trends among transnational migration scholars who have been documenting various aspects of these changes. In order to be able to respond adequately to the transformations in the world that effect migrants and non-migrants alike, it is necessary to theorize temporality.

Ulike måter å «sikre sted» : flyktningers fortellinger om integrering inn i et lokalsamfunn i Sør-Norge
- 2021
-
Ingår i: Fortellinger om integrering i norske lokalsamfunn. - Trondheim : Universitetsforlaget. - 9788215042954 ; , s. 180-202
-
Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Gitt forståelsen av integrering som en mangfoldig prosess som kan romme mange ulike praksiser og aktører, diskuterer vi integrasjon som en prosess der mennesker «sikrer sted». Vi utforsker flyktningers integreringsfortellinger, for å forstå hvilke integreringserfaringer disse rommer. Rammeverket til Penninx og Garcés-Mascareñas (2016) brukes til å analysere flyktningers fortellinger om integrering inn i et lokalsamfunn. Gjennom disse erfaringene viser vi et mangfold av integreringsforståelser og praksiser.

Conviviality vis-à-vis Cosmopolitanism and Creolisation : Probing the Concepts
- 2020
-
Ingår i: Conviviality at the Crossroads. - Cham : Palgrave Macmillan. - 9783030289799 - 9783030289782 ; , s. 1-14
-
Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The introductory chapter discusses conviviality in relation to the adjoining concepts cosmopolitanism and creolisation. Inspired by the Spanish term convivencia, Ivan Illich envisioned a post-industrial convivial society of “autonomous individuals and primary groups” (Illich 1973), which resembles present-day manifestations of “convivialism”. Paul Gilroy refashioned conviviality as a substitute for cosmopolitanism, denoting an ability to be ‘at ease’ in contexts of diversity (Gilroy 2004). Rather than replacing one concept with the other, this book seeks to explore the interconnections—commonalities and differences—between them. The urgency of today’s global predicament is the recurring argument in the discussion of all three concepts, and a further reason to bring them in dialogue. Whereas conviviality and cosmopolitanism are already tightly intertwined, creolisation is arguably a necessary complement to the other two.

Högutbildade migranter i Sverige
- 2018
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- I dagens globala kunskapsintensiva ekonomier konkurrerar länder om att locka till sig högutbildad arbetskraft. Till Sverige anländer sådan arbetskraft antingen som rekryterad, på eget initiativ eller som flyktingar. I regel är de framgångsrika på arbetsmarknaden och inom sina yrken, men deras väg till att erkännas som fullvärdiga medborgare och yrkespersoner är ofta kantad av motgångar och problem. Antologin samlar aktuell humanistisk och samhällsvetenskaplig forskning om högutbildade migranter i Sverige. Sammantaget presenteras en bred och ingående kunskap om allt från politik, migranters representation på arbetsmarknaden och myndigheters handläggning av arbetstillstånd till de högutbildades egna erfarenheter av yrkes- och vardagsliv och deras strävan efter delaktighet och erkännande. Boken är skriven för en bred läsekrets och riktar sig förutom till forskare också till studenter, journalister, tjänstemän, politiker och intresserad allmänhet.

Migration, transnationalism and development on the Southeastern flank of Europe
- 2013
-
Ingår i: Journal of Southeast European and Black Sea Studies. - : Routledge. - 1468-3857 .- 1743-9639. ; 13:2, s. 125-140

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The South-east Europe and Black Sea region presents a fertile terrain for examin- ing recent international migration trends. A wide range of types of migration can be observed in this region: large-scale emigration in many countries, recent mass immigration in the case of Greece, return migration, internal migration, internal and external forced migration, irregular migration, brain drain etc. These migratory phenomena occur within the context of EU migration policies and EU accession for some countries. Yet within this shifting migration landscape of migrant stocks and flows, the fundamental economic geography of different wealth levels and work opportunities is what drives most migration, now as in the past. This paper sets the scene for the special issue in three ways: first, by defining the three key concepts of migration, transnationalism and development; second, by setting the geographical scene, with the aid of relevant statistics on the migration, development and remittance trends in the various countries of the region; and third, by summarizing the highlights of the papers in this issue of the journal, which range in their coverage from Ukraine and Moldova in the north, to Greece and Albania in the south.

Migration, Transnationalism and Development in South-East Europe and the Black Sea Region
- 2017
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (refereegranskat)abstract
- The Southeast Europe and Black Sea region presents fertile terrain for examining recent international migration trends. The contributions to this book cover a range of examples, from Ukraine and Moldova in the north, to Greece and Albania in the south. By intersecting the three key concepts of migration, transnationalism and development, they offer new insights based on original empirical research. A wide range of types of migration can be observed in this region: large-scale emigration in many countries, recent mass immigration in the case of Greece, return migration, internal migration, internal and external forced migration, irregular migration, brain drain etc. These migratory phenomena occur within the context of EU migration policies and EU accession for some countries. Yet within this shifting migration landscape of migrant stocks and flows, the fundamental economic geography of different wealth levels and work opportunities is what drives most migration, now as in the past. This book was previously published as a special issue of Southeast European and Black Sea Studies.
