The course introduces intersectional perspectives on migration studies, focusing in particular on how gender, sexuality and the body intersect with migration, ethnicity, race, culture, religion and nation. The course draws upon postcolonial feminist studies, intersectional queer theory and sociocultural perspectives on embodiment, and it provides an overview of key readings and debates in the field. The course suits students preparing for future empirical research on Master level who seek to develop their ability to identify and analyse intersections of different social categories.
