30425 - New Forms of Transnationalism in Action
Sun, August 10, 10:00 to 11:30am, East Tower, Hyatt Regency Chicago, Floor: Ballroom Level/Gold, Grand Hall GDescription
Some would argue that, in this age of rising anti-globalization, the heyday of transnationalism approach in the field of international migration is the thing of the past. This session aims to explore some emerging new forms of transnationalism: from queer transnational space to (geo)politicized transnational field, and to new forms of transnational immigrant entrepreneurs.
