Course Summary
This course aims to introduce students to multidisciplinary approaches to study historical and current migration/mobility challenges across diverse human populations through socio-economic, political, decolonial and cultural lenses.
This course explores and critically engages in constructive dialogues of why some people leave their home countries, how they experience migration/mobility and adaptation to their host countries, and the economic, social, and cultural effects migration has in sending and receiving countries.
In this course we will un/re-learn ideas/terms/concepts of inter-ethnic relations, class, race, gender, identity, place-making, culture, belonging, discrimination, integration, notions of citizenship, and diasporic communities in Australian or other countries, and how migrants and non-migrants interact and are affected by these processes.
