Barndomens livsvärldar: institution – plats – social miljö

Plats: Stadshuset Malmö, Orkanen Malmö högskola
Målgrupp: Alla intresserade

Malmö stad, Malmö högskola, samverkansprojektet FRAMSTEG samt Interreg IV A delprojekt Mångfald och mening inbjuder till en tvådagars konferens på temat Barndomens livsvärldar: institution – plats – social miljö
Praktiska och teoretiska perspektiv på barns och ungas villkor i förskola och skola 29-30 november 2012

Målet med konferensen är att identifiera skolans och förskolans roll i relation till de skilda uppväxtvillkor som barn och ungdomar möter i Malmö, liksom i hela Öresundsregionen. Konferensen kretsar kring några av dagens centrala frågor:

  • Vilken roll spelar institutionerna skola och förskola i områden där välfärden är låg och ohälsan hög? Skiljer sig deras roll i dessa områden från den de spelar i områden med andra typer av utmaningar?
  • Kan institutionerna skola och förskola bidra till en mer sammanhållen stad? I så fall hur?
  • Vilka faktorer bidrar till goda respektive dåliga skolresultat? Hur kan negativa faktorer övervinnas?

Ny kunskap behöver utvecklas och erfarenheter delas för att målet om en skola och förskola för alla ska kunna förverkligas. Detta arbete är en del av visionen om en socialt hållbar stad, en stad som håller samman. Hur når vi dessa mål?

Utifrån våra olika perspektiv som kunskapsbärare – som pedagoger, beslutsfattare eller forskare – diskuterar vi såväl platsens och den sociala miljöns betydelse som skolans och förskolans institutionella villkor, inklusive den praktiska pedagogiska verksamheten.

Konferensen anknyter till det arbete som Kommissionen för ett socialt hållbart Malmö har inlett. Bland många andra deltar kommissionärerna Nihad Bunar, Marie Köhler, Sven Persson och Mikael Stigendal i konferensen.

Konferensen har både ett Malmöperspektiv och ett Öresundsperspektiv. Tillsammans med forskare från Roskilde universitet (med kunskaper om förhållanden i storstadsregionen Köpenhamn) och från Malmö högskola, får pedagoger och beslutsfattare i Malmös skolor och förskolor diskutera möjliga vägar framåt. Tillsammans lägger vi nya byggstenar i skapandet av framtidens skola och förskola i Malmö!

Migration, urbanisation and societal change (MUSA) seminar with Dr Katharine Tyler 

She has recently become Lecturer in Social Anthropology in the Department of Sociology and Philosophy, University of Exeter, UK. Before working at Exeter, she was Lecturer in Race and Ethnicity at the Department of Sociology, University of Surrey, UK from 2004-2012. She has a PhD in social anthropology from the University of Manchester, UK.

Paper title:

Whiteness, Class and the Legacies of Empire: On Home Ground

Abstract

In this paper I will provide an overview of the central themes of my recently published book entitled Whiteness, Class and the Legacies of Empire: On Home Ground published in April 2012 by Palgrave Macmillan. The book asks what has Britain's inglorious history of colonial exploitation got to do with the tranquil, green and pleasant environment of the village community that is typically taken to represent the quintessence of Englishness? This book is a personally mediated, reflexive ethnography of the historically influenced, geographically situated, embodied, classed and racially differentiated constitution of contemporary urban and suburban identities. It is grounded in my experience of the ways in which social identity is constructed and maintained via my ethnographic study of a village-like community, a post-industrial town and an inner-city locale, all of which are situated within close proximity to one another. The central focus is on how it is that White ethnicity is rendered invisible. What comes to light is a picture of contemporary people's conceptions of themselves conditioned by, and deriving from, the unknown and forgotten legacy of a colonial past that cannot be confined to the past.

Seminar will be held in English.

The Migration Seminar: A comparison of earnings outcomes for refugees in Canada and Sweden

Målgrupp: all interested in research

Welcome to a research seminar with Ravi Pendakur, Professor in Public and International Affairs, University of Ottawa and visiting scholar at MIM, Malmö University and Pieter Bevelander, Professor in IMER at MIM, Malmö University

Title: A comparison of earnings outcomes for refugees in Canada and Sweden
Abstract

Both Sweden and Canada have seen relatively high intake of refugees (both resettled and asylum seekers).  On average Canada admits around 25 thousand refugees per year, while Sweden admits around 13 thousand refugees per year (CIC  Statistics; Bevelander 2009).  While labour force outcomes for immigrants are important to understand, outcomes for refugees are particularly important from a policy perspective because this group is subject to both higher levels of government support and greater integration challenges.

 

One challenge to developing this understanding is that there are only a few national level databases that identify immigrants by intake category which include labour related information.  There is thus, little research that assesses the labour force performance of refugees (see for example: Devoretz and Pivnenko 2004; Aslund 2007; Allen 2007; Connor 2010; Bevelander 2011; Hatton 2011).  However, the category of intake can be very important for labour force outcomes both because it is a correlate to the integration challenges faced by individual immigrants and because access to services may be determined by intake class.

 

This research assesses the earnings trajectories of refugees in Canada and Sweden using two national level sources of data.  The Canadian Immigration Database (IMDB) is a file that links the intake record of post 1979 immigrants to Canada with annual taxation records.   We use tables drawn from the IMDB that cross sex, age, schooling, country of birth, year of immigration and intake class showing earnings in each year after immigration.  These tables are matched to 3 years of Swedish register data (1997, 2002 and 2007).    We use these data to follow cohorts of immigrants entering Canada or Sweden from 1987 to 1996.  This allows us to compare the earnings trajectories of cohorts of refugees, comparing earnings outcomes of government sponsored and asylum seeking refugees in the two countries.

Title: From life-stage to lifestyle migration: British international retirement migration to the mediterranean

The study of international migration has remained resolutely focused on the ‘economic’ migration of young adults (and sometimes their families) and consequent issues of labour market insertion, spatial patterns of settlement, and integration/exclusion. This seminar looks at a type of migration which breaks this normative mould: the international movement of older people at or around retirement, for what are nowadays called ‘lifestyle’ or ‘quality of life’ reasons. We call this type of migration ‘international retirement migration’ (IRM) or, more poetically, ‘sunset migration’. It has become an increasingly widespread form of migration from the rich Northern European countries such as Sweden, the UK and Germany, to destinations such as Spain (including the Canary Islands), Italy and the South of  France. The seminar will be in two main parts: the first will be an attempt to theoretically frame this type of migration, largely through the conceptual lens of lifestyle migration. Secondly, some results of a research project on British IRM to four Mediterranean destinations (Costa del Sol, Algarve, Tuscany and Malta) will be presented. The conclusion will attempt to interpret these findings in the light of ongoing re-theorisations of migration and its various typologies.

Making space for the shrinking, withering and exploding: Lagos, Detroit, and a reconsideration of World Cities theory

Discussants: Karin Grundström (PhD, Built Environment/Architecture, Urban Studies) and Belisa Itezerote Marochi (PhD, GPS)

Recent literature on cities in the developing world describes urban environments as the central sites in which the processes of globalization unfold and inequality manifested. Research speaks of anxious urbanities, fortress cities, and a reliance on mythologies of urban autochthony. Investigating these issues across diverse urban environments is an increasingly urgent task.

Accordingly, a pressing debate in the urban studies literature emphasizes the place of cities in the global cultural, financial and political economy.  Traditional approaches to the study of World Cities have typically left little room for the cities of the South or the more “marginal” cities in the West.  In the proposed paper, I offer a critical interpretation of the World Cities canon and argue for the need to make conceptual space for a broader range of urban locations.  I engage this debate both theoretically and through a comparative investigation of two cities: Lagos and Detroit.  Though they are in some ways peripheral to the functioning of global capitalism, they are central to its narrative.  I therefore suggest how these cities might be “worlded.”  The paper represents a preliminary attempt to situate African cities in the wider academic discourse of global urbanism.

Combating trafficking for prostitution: Legal challenges in Denmark and Sweden

Discussant: Michael Strange (PhD, GPS)
Motivated by the low number of human trafficking convictions, this article explores the legal challenges of combating trafficking of women and minors for commercial sexual exploitive purposes, by drawing on governmental reports, existing research and expert interviews with Danish and Swedish detective inspectors and public prosecutors. Employing a legal feminist approach, the article identifies several inconsistencies in the Danish and Swedish legal policy and practice in relation to human trafficking and sexual exploitation. Furthermore, the article identifies a residual patriarchal structure at work within the Danish and Swedish legal system ultimately leading to the division of trafficking victims into an “innocent” and “deserving” category.  In summary, the article concludes that the trafficking codes in Denmark and Sweden are practiced in ways that often exclude prosecuting traffickers for the crime of trafficking.

Migration and witchcraft in West Africa: the movement of spells, méstris and korderus

Discussant: Bo Petersson (Professor, GPS)

This paper presents elements of ethnography of interaction of African worldviews triggered by Cape Verdeans and African immigrants circulating in the witchcraft area at the West coast of Africa (Cape Verde, Guinea-Bissau and Senegal). The ethnographic research began in 2010 and is the basis of the dissertation in the field of Social Sciences (line of research: Culture and Identity in the Context of Globalization) at the University of Cape Verde. It follows the relationships between the locals and the migrants with the intention to investigate the cosmologies emerging in the context of their interactions.
