The Centre nurtures international collaborations with migration scholars, and with stakeholders and policymakers. The Centre is a node in the IMISCOE network, which supports and maintains international research projects, publishes (open access) books, provides training opportunities and awards and organizes events to promote migration research. The centre is also home to the Migration Politics Journal, a fully open-access journal which publishes peer-reviewed scholarly contributions on the politics involved in representing, controlling and managing migration.
History
The ARC-M builds on the activities deployed in the last five years in the Migration Network of the Amsterdam Centre for European Studies, as well as on the Institute for Migration and Ethnic Studies (IMES) well-reputed strand of critical, global and politically animated research drawing in a range of ancillary fields that don’t necessarily find their place within Migration Studies - border studies, carcereal geographies, ethnographies of the state, crimmigration, critical geopolitics, gender & sexuality studies, etc.
