\u201cMetaphors of Migration\u201d by Dr. Lisa Lowe (Yale University)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Friday May 3, 2019 @ 6:00 p.m. \u2013 Azrieli Theatre 101, Carleton University<\/strong><\/p>\n

Keynote lecture is FREE and open to the public<\/strong><\/p>\n

Abstract:<\/u><\/p>\n

This talk considers the dilemmas of representing contemporary migration in discourses of national security, humanitarianism, migrant activism, and the arts. Whether as foreign threat or suffering victim, the state produces \u201cthe migrant\u201d as the limit of national sovereignty, social order, and liberal personhood, even as it seeks to translate the \u201cmigrant\u201d into the \u201cimmigrant\u201d through regimes of visibility, legality, and temporality in the political sphere, laying claim to migrant labor in the economic sphere, and subjecting what remains to humanist concepts of free will and autonomy. Activist projects and aesthetic works offer other vocabularies with which to represent migration and other means to frame the political beyond normative ideas of citizenship in the nation-state.<\/p>\n
