Aktuelle Herausforderungen und neue Perspektiven der Migrationsforschung: Jahrbuch Migrationsforschung 6
edited by Wiebke Sievers, Rainer Baubock, Dzeneta Karabegovic, Kyoko Shinozaki and Ivan Josipovic
Migration research has long predominantly focussed on researching migrants from the perspective of majority societies. These approaches are increasingly being condemned as “migrantology”. They are particularly criticised for locating migrants in their countries of origin and not in the countries where they reside. This conceptualisation perpetuates national borders that have in fact been overcome by the social reality of mobility and migration across borders. At the same time, new approaches have emerged over the last decades that take migration as a starting point to analyse global inequality and the drawing of national boundaries which exclude migrants. The present volume takes up this new research tradition. However, it does not aim to add further new research approaches to the many that have emerged in migration research over the last years. Instead, most contributions illustrate how these diverse theoretical and methodological approaches can be translated into concrete empirical research. They do not analyse migrants, but discuss global challenges such as climate change, societal debates about migration, the handling of societal diversity in schools, administration, and the labour market, as well as the negotiation of belongings in migration societies characterized by racism and exclusion.
