Dyskusja Fundacji im. Stefana Batorego: Ukraina w stanie resetu. O Majdanie, Antymajdanie i kraju, który potrzebuje zmian – z Serhijem Żadanem rozmawiać będzie Bogumiła Berdychowska
Serhij Żadan to jeden z najwybitniejszych ukraińskich pisarzy, dobrze znany także w Polsce. Jednak nie o literaturze chcemy z nim rozmawiać, lecz o niedawnych wydarzeniach na Ukrainie, o Majdanie widzianym z perspektywy wschodu tego kraju, z Charkowa. O tamtejszych Euromajdanie (w którym pisarz uczestniczył) i o charkowskim Antymajdanie. O podziałach społecznych, kulturowych i językowych. Relacjach centrum-ukraińskie peryferia, ukraińskość-rosyjskość i lękach obecnych na wschodzie Ukrainy.
CALL FOR PAPERS: CBEES Annual Conference 2014 "Baltic Sea Region and Eastern Europe: A new generation on the move", Södertörn University, Centre for Baltic Sea Region and Eastern European Studies (CBEES), December 4-5
1989 is an important date in the history of Central and Eastern Europe. Since the collapse
of state socialism this date has become a marker for a break in historical continuity and a starting point for a whole range of research on processes and developments labeled as ‘post- socialist’, in ‘transition’ or ‘transformation’. The point of departure for this multidisciplinary conference is the different processes—economic, social, cultural, political and ecological— that have been taking place in the area since the collapse of state socialism. In particular, it seeks to focus on the present, by looking closer at the past and forward to the future.

Beyond targeted policies: New MPI Europe report examines the next generation of immigrant integration policymaking
BRUSSELS — Amid ongoing, sometimes
fraught, debate over the presumed failure of targeted policies to
integrate immigrants linguistically, educationally and professionally
into communities across western Europe, a quiet policy transformation is
taking place. Governments gradually are realising that while immigrant
integration policy is essential, particularly for recent arrivals, it is
insufficient in the long run to achieve the full educational and
economic potential and societal participation of immigrants and citizens
with an immigrant background.
Call for Applications: 10th Migration Summer School: Framing Migration Differently: From Implicit Problem to Implied Asset, Florence, Italy, 23 June - 4 July
International migration has become an all-important issue for the world
as a whole, and for the European Union and its neighbourhood in particular. If
you are interested in studying migration from a number of different
disciplinary perspectives, critically interrogating some of the subtle assumptions underlying much contemporary
academic, political and media debate on migration and re-framing
how we view and speak about migration, why not join the 10th Migration Summer School?
