Reading list and course outline 2004/5Module Code: SO.210

Tutor: Professor Robin CohenE. Mail: R.Cohen@warwick.ac.ukRoom R1.65 (Social Studies Blg.)

Office Hours 12-1pm Tuesdays in termLectures are on Tuesdays, 11-12, in Room R03/4

In Term 1 we deal with how sociologists understand migration. Weeks 1 and 2 are introductory and theoretical; Weeks 4-10 are concerned with eight major ‘types’ or ‘forms’ of migration. Term 2 deals with ‘identity’ through the prism of ‘diaspora’. Weeks 11-12 are theoretical and typological. Weeks 13-20 cover different examples of diaspora. There will be no lectures in the third term, but revision classes will be held and videos will be shown. The programme for the third term will be published at a later date.

Note: An asterisk (*) after the entry indicates ‘of special importance’. All dates refer to the lecture.

Term 1

WEEK 1: Introduction to the Literature/Class Assignments/Basic Terms28.9.2004Self-check: You should now have a clear idea of the structure of the course and your commitments to it.

WEEK 2: Why people move: theories of migration 5.10.2004Distinguish between the individual’s desires and motives to move and the structural and macro changes that encourage movement. Can all the different forms of migration (forced,, labour, refugee, skilled, etc.) all be explained in a single general theory? What are the permissive and inhibiting factors at a meso- level: for example immigration policies? Is there a different set of explanations for the initiation of migration as opposed to its continuation?

WEEK 3: Tied migration: the case of Indian indentured labour12.10.2004

2

Is capitalism compatible with unfree labour or, as Marx thought, a mode of production that requires free labour? What forms of unfree labour from the end of plantation slavery appear to have survived? Were Indian indentured workers experiencing ‘a new form of slavery’? What was the position of Indian women under indenture? Are modern migrants the lineal descendants of unfree workers?

WEEK 4: Forced labour in labour-repressive systems19.10.2004The term ‘labour-repressive systems/economies’ is used by Barrington Moore in The Social Origins … though it is not well developed. Subsequent authors have none the less seen it as a useful means of analysing societies with a high degree of state-direction of the labour force e.g. the Soviet Union, Nazi Germany. How was labour organised and mobilised in Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union?

WEEK 5: Labour migration: Europe 1945-70s26.10.2004Were the large flows of migrants to Western Europe in the period 1945–75 cause or consequence of the boom years? Why were migrants so useful economically during this period? Why did legal labour migration stop so suddenly in the mid-1970s?

Self-check: You should be able to describe the particularities of the 1945–75 years, using at least Britain, France and Germany as examples (if looking at other example The Netherlands is well documented)

WEEK 6: Labour Migration: the US-Mexican Case2.11.2004Between Mexico and the USA lies the Rio Grande, a easily-crossed river separating one of the richest from one of the poorest countries in the world. The flow of migrants across the border provides a politically sensitive and excellently documented case of international labour migration. How do we periodise and characterise this migration? What was the border industrialisation program? What was the bracero program?

WEEK 7: Oscillating Migrants Migrant Labour and the South African Mines9.11.2004 Two aspects of this topic will be considered. First we will examine the origins and mechanisms of labour recruitment to the mines.Why did the mines need that kind labour? Second, we will look at social control in the mining compounds.

WEEK 8: Illegal/Undocumented Migrants: the Case of the USA16.11.2004The issue of ‘illegality’ raises the question of the legality/morality of the frontier and of US immigration law. Thus the expression ‘undocumented’. Whatever the Mexican migrants are called, their numbers, fate and effects in the labour market have occasioned graphic descriptions of their conditions, passionate advocacy of different policies and extensive scholarship to establish the facts behind the contending views. Can the US state police its borders? Do public opinion, economic interest and political will coincide or diverge?

WEEK 9 Global Care Workers23.11.2004The notion of a ‘global care chain’ unites various forms of subordinated international female labour – in the health care sector (as nurses or auxiliaries), in the domestic sector and as sex workers.

Self-check: You should have a clear idea of the origins, destinations and magnitude of the global refugee population. You should be able to make distinctions between environmental refugees, displacees and political exiles

Term 2

Term 2 is anchored around the key concepts of ‘identity’ and ‘diaspora’. We will see how, in the age of globalisation, identity is becoming increasing transnational and deterritorialized. The comparative study of diasporas will then be considered. Lectures will then target particular groups -- the African

8

victim diaspora, the British imperial diaspora, new refugee diasporas, the Russian diaspora, the Overseas Chinese and the Caribbean diaspora. Note date of first lecture

WEEK 11 No lectures or classes (5/6/7 January)

WEEK 12 Migrancy, Identity and transnationalism11.1.2005This topic will try to capture the fluid and complex cultural outcomes that result from migrancy. Migrants leave ‘home’, but with what consequence? They could abandon their roots consciously, lose them through gradual assimilation, or seek to reaffirm them. Sometimes this is a ‘survival’ or ‘retention’ of an old identity, but more often a new identity gets created in ‘the diaspora’.

WEEK 14 The African ‘victim diaspora’25.1.2005Jews, Armenian, Africans (and, later, Irish and Palestinians) can be regarded as exemplary or probable candidates for the title of ‘victim diasporas’. Using the African case we will look at how this affected their lives in the New World, their cultural and political attitudes their places of origin and destination and their involvement in return movements to Africa.

WEEK 17 East-West migration and the creation of a new Russian diaspora15.2.2005Fears of ‘East–West’ migration replacing ‘South–North’ migration have led to highly restrictive measures along the eastern frontiers western Europe. Are these fears realistic or exaggerated? At the same time the collapse of the Russian empire has left ‘stranded Russian minorities’ in various part of the former USSR and its satellite countries. Do this constitute a diaspora?

WEEK 20 Diasporas, Entrpreneurship and Globalisation8.3.2005

Five aspects of globalisation will be considered here (a) A world economy with quicker and denser transactions between its sub-sectors due to better communications, cheaper transport and the effects of liberal trade and capital-flow policies; (b) Forms of international migration that emphasise contractual relationships, intermittent stays abroad and sojourning (c) A new notion of space with an accelerated ‘space-time compression’ speeding up the linkages between global cities and spaces and, by contrast, relatively slowing down links to the hinterlands of the world economy (d) A deterritorialization of social identity challenging the hegemonizing nation-states’ claim to make an exclusive citizenship and (e) The growth of forms of immigrant entrepreneurship that ‘take advantage of’ globalisation.
