Migration can often involve numerous encounters with bureaucracy and state officials. Obtaining a visa, residency, or citizenship may require individuals to collect and display documents, disclose a range of personal information, spend time waiting or in periods of considerable insecurity. What are the impacts of these processes and encounters with bureaucracy? What do they involve? How have they changed over time and in different contexts? The workshop, engaging with these issues of migration process and bureaucracy, will be held in the format of 'academic speed-dating' (with up to 5 mini-presentations of 3-5 minutes each by a selection of network participants from different disciplines) with plenty of time to network in small groups and individually. The workshop is organised by Dr Anna Tsalapatanis (Centre for Socio-Legal Studies, Oxford University). For more information, please visit here
