Call for Papers: Transnational Lives: Feminist Perspectives on Citizenship, Home and Belonging

2007-05-13T12:08:00.001+08:00

Transnational Lives: Feminist Perspectives on
Citizenship, Home and Belonging
November 23-26, 2007

Symposium of the IGU Commission on Gender and Geography

CALL FOR PAPERS

Objectives
Over the past two decades, feminist geographers from all over the world have gathered

regularly in different parts of Europe, Asia, Africa, and North America to take part in IGU

sponsored symposiums on gender and geography. We have benefited from the fruitful

discussions and learned much from each other’s experiences during these meetings. We are

happy to announce that the Symposium on Transnational Lives: Feminist Perspectives on

Citizenship, Home and Belonging will be held at the Department of Geography, National

Taiwan University during 23-26 November, 2007.
A transnational framework encourages a broad spectrum of research topics and embraces a

wide range of perspectives, however, it is on the level of peoples’ lived experience that

much recent, innovative and provocative research is being carried out. The time has come to

establish a new paradigm within which various aspects of transmigration can fit together,

resulting in a broader, more “holistic” view of transnational lives. This symposium tries

to push for a theoretical and comprehensive approach to explore the many facets associated

with transmigration in the global era. We hope to address the extent to which social

identities are disrupted and recast, or reinforced over national boundaries and further

bring to light issues regarding belonging and citizenship.
With this in mind, the main themes of the symposium will focus on citizenship, home and

belonging, but are not limited to these three. The symposium will provide a platform to

rethink existing notions of transnational space from the perspectives of women and gender

that is contextualized in a wide range of societies.

Suggested Thematic topics:
++Gender and Mobility
++Gender and identity formation
++Gendered transnational space
++Gender roles in the transnational family
