Description

Continuing with the CHCI-GHI 2020-2021 Series on the issue of “MIGRATION, LOGISTICS AND UNEQUAL CITIZENS IN CONTEMPORARY GLOBAL CONTEXT” during times of the COVID-19, the topic of October’s webinar is “Pandemic, Border Politics, Xenophobia.” The speakers for this panel are Alain Brossat, Yuan-Horng Chu, Rafal Smoczynski, and Juan Alberto Ruiz Casado. Each of them will offer us their critical point of view on current issues such as the drastic turn in biopolitics during the pandemic, the situation of the uncertainty of the internal migrant workers within China after the crisis caused by COVID-19, the “moral panic” of migrants in the UK in the post-Brexit age, or the effects of Sinophobia and the anti-China narrative on Taiwan and the Taiwanese identity construction.
