Program - IMIS - Universität Osnabrück

The conference “Deportations as a Conflicting Issue” brings
together diverse perspectives for analyzing social and political conflicts that arise before, during, and after deportations.
Investigating and discussing conflicts surrounding deportations is a relevant and revealing issue for migration research
“as it visualizes the lines of conflict in the politics of migration
like a burning lens” (Miltiadis Oulios).
