SUMMARY:Rethinking Labor Mobility and Precarity: A Seminar with Guy Standing\, Alejandro Grimson\, and Biao Xiang
DESCRIPTION:Precarity\, the experience of insecurity and constant risk of exclusion\, is central to the experience of many labor migrants and citizen-workers in our time. Session II of Non-citizenship\, UC Santa Cruz’s Andrew W. Mellon Foundation Sawyer Seminar\, focuses on precarity\, labor mobility\, and denizenship (the status of being a denizen or inhabitant\, as opposed to a full citizen)\, concepts that highlight the tiered and sometimes overlapping spaces between citizen and non-citizen. Juan Poblete will moderate the seminar with Guy Standing\, Alejandro Grimson\, and Biao Xiang as they discuss migrants\, denizens\, and the precariat in Europe\, the Americas\, and Asia. This seminar\, while self-standing and based on pre-circulated readings\, is meant in preparation for our symposium\, “Labor Mobility and Precarity on a Global Scale\,” to be held Tuesday\, February 7\, 2017\, 12:00-5:30pm\, at the Stevenson Event Center. \n  \nPlease check back to access the pre-circulated readings. \n  \nLunch will be served. \n  \nPlease register here prior to attending the seminar. \n  \nAlejandro Grimson\, an expert on south-south migration\, is dean of the School of Social Sciences at Universidad Nacional de San Martín in Buenos Aires\, Argentina. He is the author of many books\, including Relatos de la diferencia y la igualdad: los bolivianos en Buenos Aires (Eudeba\, 1999) and Los límites de la cultura: crítica de las teorías de la identidad (Siglo XXI Argentina\, 2011)\, winner of the Latin American Studies Association’s Premio Iberoamericano for best book of the year. \nJuan Poblete is Professor of Literature and Co-principal Investigator of Non-citizenship\, UC Santa Cruz’s Andrew W. Mellon Foundation Sawyer Seminar. His broad and myriad research interests include nineteenth-century Latin American literature\, nation and nationalism\, and popular culture in the Americas. His most recent publications include Sports and Nationalism in Latin America (with Héctor Fernández L’Hoeste and Robert McKee-Irwin\, Palgrave\, 2015) and Humor in Latin American Cinema (with Juana Suárez\, Palgrave\, 2016). \nGuy Standing\, Professor of Development Studies at the School of Oriental and African Studies at the University of London\, is a scholar of labor\, globalization\, citizenship\, and social movements. His most recent books include A Precariat Charter: From Denizens to Citizens (Bloomsbury Academic Press\, 2014) and The Precariat: The New Dangerous Class (Bloomsbury Academic Press\, 2011). From 1999 until March 2006\, he was director of the Socio-Economic Security Programme of the International Labour Organisation in Geneva\, Switzerland. \nBiao Xiang\, Professor of Social Anthropology at the University of Oxford\, specializes in labor\, migration\, and social change in Asia. An ethnographer\, he has studied migration from rural China to Beijing\, migrant Indian information technology engineers in Australia\, and unskilled labor migration from China to Japan\, South Korea\, and Singapore. He is the author of The Intermediary Trap (Princeton University Press\, forthcoming)\, Global Bodyshopping (Princeton University Press\, 2007)\, Transcending Boundaries (Chinese edition by Sanlian Press\, 2000; English edition by Brill Academic Publishers\, 2005)\, and the co-editor of Return: Nationalizing Transnational Mobility in Asia(Duke University Press\, 2013). \n  \nThis seminar is co-sponsored by the Chicano Latino Research Center and Institute for Humanities Research\, with generous support from the Andrew W.

SUMMARY:Linking Citizenship\, Migration\, Labor\, Border\, and Carceral Studies: A Seminar with Bridget Anderson
DESCRIPTION:How\, when\, where\, and why do citizenship\, migration\, labor\, border\, and carceral studies converge? What happens when we put these fields in dialogue with one another? Why the distinction between migration studies and refugee studies? When do forced migration and labor migration overlap and when are they different? Who is a “migrant\,” “refugee\,” “citizen\,” and “worker”? What is the difference between prisoner and detainee? Between citizen and denizen? Over 2016-17\, scholars at UC Santa Cruz involved with Non-citizenship\, our Andrew W. Mellon Foundation John E. Sawyer Seminar on the Comparative Study of Culture\, will grapple with these questions as we reflect on and link our Sawyer Seminar’s 3 themes: forced migration\, labor mobility and precarity\, and the fluidity of status. Bridget Anderson\, Professor of Migration and Citizenship and Deputy Director of the Centre on Migration\, Policy and Society at the University of Oxford\, helps kick off our discussion by leading a seminar for UC Santa Cruz faculty\, staff\, and students on key and emerging questions and concerns in citizenship\, migration\, labor\, border\, and carceral studies. \nEmily Mitchell-Eaton\, Andrew W.
