This two-day conference is organised in the context of the projects Postcolonial Displacements: Migration, Narratives and Place-Making in South Asia (LIAS/CA-DS) and Rerouting Relations(IIAS) at Leiden University. They particularly welcome submissions that address perspectives from urban peripheries, rural hinterlands, borderlands, transnational contexts, and the margins of national imaginations. Apart from a select set of panels dedicated to the modalities of displacement, they will also host a workshop (upon invitation) on residential segregation and religious politics. Furthermore they invite presentations based on audio-visual materials, such as films or art works.
Deadline for submissions: 22 January, 2018.
