SUMMARY:CIE Research Café: Crisis for whom? Global border regimes and chil
 dhood (im)mobility
DESCRIPTION:25 October 2023\, 15:30-17:00\nPlease join us for the first CIE
  Research Café of the new academic year. This is a collaborative event be
 tween the University of Sussex Centre for International Education (CIE) an
 d the Centre for Innovation and Research in Childhood and Youth (CIRCY).\n
 Location: Jubilee G36\, University of Sussex/ Zoom\nCrisis for whom? Globa
 l border regimes and childhood (im)mobility\nWith Rachel Rosen (UCL) and V
 alentina Glockner (NPI\, Mexico City)\nNarratives of ‘crisis’ – whet
 her ‘migration crisis’ or ‘childhoods in crisis’ – have become r
 hetorical tropes which shape and are reproduced by value-ladened political
  responses to children on the move. These typically reflect a sedentary bi
 as which\, as they intersect with generational time\, draw on normative id
 eas about ‘good’ and ‘bad’ childhoods and rigid assumptions about 
 children and care. Consequently\, children on the move globally\, whether 
 with family or separately\, and those who remain in place when parents mig
 rate\, do so in contexts where migration is typically framed as a politica
 l and existential crisis for rich countries and associated with trauma and
  pathologisation for children. Equally\, some children's movements\, parti
 cularly those involved in South-South mobility\, are rendered invisible\, 
 as protracted displacement and ongoing historical crises are normalised. I
 ndeed\, these silent stories raise questions about when and why children's
  (im)mobility is or is not constituted as a 'crisis'\, by and for whom\, a
 nd with what effect for infrastructures and practices of care. \nIn this 
 presentation\, Rachel Rosen and Valentina Glockner will draw on their just
 -released edited volume Crisis for whom? Critical global perspectives on c
 hildhood\, care\, and migration* to complicate these silences and challeng
 e hegemonic interpretations by considering the diverse and diffuse effects
  of border technologies and crisis narratives on childhood (im)mobility.\n
 Rachel Rosen is a Professor of Sociology at the UCL Social Research Instit
 ute. Her research\, teaching and public engagement focuses on marginalised
  children and families\, especially those with precarious immigration stat
 us\; the intersection of welfare and border policies which shape their liv
 es\; and their practices of sustenance\, care\, and solidarity.\nValentina
  Glockner is a Mexican anthropologist affiliated with the Educational Rese
 arch Department of The Center for Research and Advanced Studies of the Nat
 ional Polytechnic Institute\, Mexico City. Her work in Mexico and India ex
 plores engaged research and reflective and participatory methodologies aro
 und the anthropology of childhood\, migration and the state.\n*Freely avai
