[ Informação SOCIUS ] The Migration Conference 2018
Hosted by ISEG and IGOT at the University of Lisbon, Portugal, from 26 to 28 June 2018.
Submission Deadline: 31 January 2018
On behalf of the The Migration Conference Organizing Committee we cordially invite you to the 6th conference in the series which will take place in Lisbon, Portugal from 26 to 28 June 2018.
The Conference will be a forum for discussion where experts, young researchers and students, practitioners and policy makers working in the field of migration are encouraged to exchange their knowledge and experiences in a friendly and frank environment.
The conference is organised in thematic streams of parallel sessions focusing migration, migrant populations, diasporas, migration policies, as well as non-migrants and wider impact of human mobility. The scientific programme will comprise invited talks, oral presentations, poster presentations as well as workshops.
The conference will host about 100 parallel sessions and several keynote speakers. The speakers for plenaries will be announced in due course, but surely distinguished scholars of the field will appear as was the case in previous conferences, where Douglas Massey, Saskia Sassen, Oded Stark, Giuseppe Sciortino, Caroline Brettell, Barry Chiswick, and Karen Phalet appeared.
Conference venue is ISEG (School of Economics and Management) at University of Lisbon in Portugal’s capital. The central location is just paces away from beautiful Tagus river and many museums and attractions within short distance. Directions to the campus can be found here.
We are expecting an interesting and highly motivating meeting and would be happy if you participated in this conference.
We are looking forward to seeing you in Lisbon in June 2018 !
Prof Ibrahim Sirkeci (Regent’s University), Prof João Peixoto (ISEG, University of Lisbon), Prof Maria Lucinda Fonseca (IGOT, University of Lisbon), Prof Jeffrey Cohen (Ohio State University), Prof Philip Martin (University of California, Davis), Prof Gudrun Biffl (Danube University, Krems).

[ Informação Glenn W. Muschert, Miami University ] Call for Chapter Proposals for Justice 21 Global Project 2018
Justice 21 Committee of the Society for the Study of Social Problems
Call for Chapter Proposals for Justice 21 Global Project 2018
Proposals Due October 27, 2017
Chapters Due January 2, 2018
In 2004, 2008, 2012, and 2016 the Society for the Study of Social Problems (SSSP) and the Justice 21 Committee published volumes of the Agenda for Social Justice. We are now beginning our work on the fifth such publication–Agenda for Social Justice: Global Solutions, which is designed to inform the public-at-large about the world’s most pressing social problems and to propose public policy responses to those problems. This project affirms the commitment of the SSSP to social justice scholarship, and enables members of the SSSP to communicate publicly on global/international issues. This report will be a “global agenda for social justice,” in that it will contain recommendations for action worldwide by elected officials, policy makers, and the public.
The volume is to be published in paperback and electronic formats by Policy Press, an academic publisher affiliated with the University of Bristol, UK (http://www.policypress.co.uk/). The volume is a project in public sociology, and will cover important global and international social problems currently on the public agenda.
This volume will convey the most valid and reliable knowledge available about global/international social problems, and the Justice 21 Committee enthusiastically welcomes contributions from social scientists worldwide. Please consider preparing a chapter for the 2018 publication. We ask you, individually or with colleagues, to consider submitting a brief proposal (1-2 pages) identifying a global social problem of concern to social scientists, and respond to the following items:
Identify and define a concrete social problem of global or international scope.
Clarify answers to these three questions:
– What do we know about the problem (i.e., what is the definition and scope of the problem)?
– How do we know this information (i.e., what are the sources of data about this problem)?
– What should be done, in terms of policy and social action to alleviate the problem (i.e., what are viable solutions for reducing, mitigating, solving, or abolishing the problem)?
As the Justice 21 Committee of the SSSP, we invite members to prepare draft statements for proposed contributions to the 2018 publication. Please submit a copy of your 1 to 2 page proposal via email to each of the members of the committee by October 27, 2017, and contact us if you have questions or would like additional information. Final contributions are limited to 3000 words (or roughly ten double-spaced manuscript pages). Chapter drafts will be due January 2, 2018, and final manuscripts will be due March 15, 2018. The volume will appear in print for the 2018 SSSP annual meetings in Philadelphia.
