BASIC INFORMATION

ABOUT THE GUEST PROFESSORSHIP IN MEMORY OF WILLY BRANDT AT IMER, MALMÖ UNIVERSITY

The Guest Professorship at IMER in Memory of Willy Brandt is a gift to Mal- mö University fi nanced by the City of Malmö and sponsored by MKB Fastig- hets AB. It was donated to IMER on the occasion of the inauguration of Malmö University on 31 August 1998, and signed by Ilmar Reepalu, Chairman of the Municipal Executive Board. The purpose of the Professorship is to strengthen research at Malmö Univer- sity in the fi eld of international migration and ethnic relations. It is therefore located at the School of International Migration and Ethnic Relations (IMER), which was established in 1997 as a multi- and transdisciplinary academic edu- cation and research fi eld at Malmö University (see www.imer.mah.se). As IMER has a strong international focus, the City of Malmö sought, via the Guest Professorship, to reinforce contacts with international experts in order to ensure that they would become an integral part of IMER’s research and teach- ing. To this end, an internationally oriented Guest Professorship creates a con- stant exchange of knowledge and ideas and enhances IMER’s academic strength. The gift from the City of Malmö also includes a Research Fellow (forskarassistent) and a Postgraduate Student (doktorand) post, which are pre- sented in Part 5 and Appendix 3 respectively. In order to emphasise the importance and the status of the scientifi c invest- ment in a Guest Professorship, with its associated posts within IMER, the City of Malmö has obtained the family’s permission to name Guest Professorship after the former Chancellor of West Germany, Willy Brandt. The motives for naming it Guest Professorship in Memory of Willy Brandt are as follows:

• Willy Brandt was forced to leave his native country when the Nazis assumed power and live in Norway until the outbreak of war. He subsequently lived in Sweden as a refugee during the war. Throughout his life he had mantained strong ties with Scandinavia.

• Willy Brandt was, in his political actions, an active forceful opponent of all forms of racism.

• Willy Brandt was a leading fi gure in the struggle for human rights. He also took important initiatives in opening the dialogue between East and West.

1 In the fi ve-year period from Autumn 2000 to Autumn 2005, Rainer Bauböck (Austria), Grete Brochmann (Norway), Sandro Cattacin (Switzerland), Jock Collins (Australia), Don DeVoretz (Canada), Thomas Faist (Germany), Kathe- rine Fennelly (USA), Marco Martiniello (Belgium), Nikos Papastergiadis (Australia), John Rex (UK), and Ellie Vasta (Australia/UK) have held the Wil- ly Brandt Guest Professorship post. Part 2 of this report offers a detailed over- view of their research profi les and activities at IMER. The Guest Professors give lectures to IMER students, and have additionally helped several students in connection to their studies abroad as exchange stu- dents. The Guest Professors also meet regularly with the PhD candidates to offer them individual consultations, small group seminars or reading courses. They facilitate three seminars for the IMER staff as part of the regular research seminar series. Each Guest Professor also gives one public lecture which aims at a wider audience, particularly the offi cials and practitioners of the City of Malmö. Articles based on these public lectures are published in The Willy Brandt Series of Working Papers in International Migration and Ethnic Rela- tions, in conjunction with other Guest Professors’ papers. The titles and ab- stracts of the papers published in the Series are listed in Part 3 of this report. International workshops and conferences have also been organised under the auspices of the Willy Brandt Guest Professorship, including “Globalisation in the Local Community” in November 2000 with Prof. Reiner Bauböck, “Trans- national Spaces: Disciplinary Perspectives”, in June 2003 with Prof. Thomas Faist, a conference on “Immigrant Ascension to Citizenship: Recent Policies and Economic and Social Consequences”, with Prof. Don DeVoretz in June 2004, and three workshops on “Health and Migration” during the course of Prof. Cattacin’s stay at IMER in Autumn 2005. See Appendix 4, 5, 6 and 7 for further details. The book Transnational Spaces: Disciplinary Perspectives came out as the fi rst Willy Brandt conference proceedings in 2004. Two more books are in pro- gress; details of which are available in Part 3 of the report.

2 PART 2

THE GUEST PROFESSORS’ RESEARCH PROFILES, SEMINARS, WORKSHOPS, AND TEACHING

The Guest Professors in Memory of Willy Brandt at IMER are, in the fi rst in- stance, expected to exchange ideas, information and research insights with the teachers, researchers and doctoral students at IMER - both formally in the fram- es of research seminars, and informally through their daily, social interactions. They are also expected to teach a couple of undergraduate classes and are encouraged to make contacts and develop networks not only with the teachers and students at IMER but also with other Schools of Malmö University and other academic institutions in Sweden. As academic institutions are shaped by the scholars affi liated to them, it goes without saying that the Guest Professors’ networking in Sweden and incorporation in manifold scholarly contexts contri- butes to IMER’s and Malmö University’s academic profi le by making it much more visible in Sweden as well as internationally. At the end of their stay at IMER, the Guest Professors are expected to com- plete the manuscripts of two scientifi c papers to be published in the series con- nected to the Guest Professorship position, as presented in Part 3 of this report. While the exchange of ideas, research insights and networking is naturally a potential benefi t for the Guest Professors themselves as much as for the people affi liated to IMER, the Guest Professorship is also highly attractive as an oasis of concentrated reading and writing. Many of the visiting scholars lack such opportunities in their regular work places; something to be expected in view of the duties and responsibilities associated with their distinguished positions. While much of their time at IMER is devoted to undisturbed reading and writ- ing, many Guest Professors have readily responded to a variety of invitations - often at short notice - to participate in workshops at IMER and elsewhere in Sweden, as well as give papers and keynote speeches at international conferen- ces. This report on their activities gives some insight into the breadth and depth of their interests and the audiences they were addressing. At the same time, it conveys the understanding that no successful academic career can be underta-

3 ken in isolation and that a semester of academic work can rarely be planned in detail. Obligations and follow-up tend to pile up, as the following text reveals. Regardless of their different ages and gender, as well as their different disci- plinary and homeland backgrounds, all the appointed Willy Brandt Guest Pro- fessors have proved to be curious about Malmö and Sweden, open to holding and initiating discussions, willing to appear in public and, last but not least, hard working. Personal contact with them has confi rmed that scientifi c achie- vements are natural if academic work is not seen merely as a job but as a voca- tion. In that regard, the Willy Brandt Guest Professors have been an inspiration to many at IMER, especially those Professors who reached impressive levels in their careers before their mid-forties (like Brochmann, Cattacin, Faist, Martini- ello and Papastergiadis). In the following text, the Guest Professors in memory of Willy Brandt at IMER are presented according to the chronological order of their stay in Mal- mö. Each presentation is followed by a detailed report on the Willy Brandt Guest Professors’ seminars, workshops, teaching and other activities included in the frame of their work in Malmö. In the fi rst year the visiting scholars stayed at IMER for different periods of time; one semester was established as being a standard period from autumn 2001 onwards. Prof. Rainer Bauböck stayed at IMER in the period between 25th Sep- tember 2000 and 1st February 2001, and Prof. John Rex between 7th and 18th May 2001. Prof. Thomas Faist stayed at IMER from 2nd to 12th April 2001, but returned as Willy Brandt Guest Professor in the spring semester of 2002/2003.

RAINER BAUBÖCK Political Scientist and Professor at the Austrian Academy of Sciences’ Research Unit for Institutional Change and European Integration. He teaches regularly at the Universities of Vienna and Innsbruck. His previous appointments have in- cluded Assistant Professor at the Institute for Advanced Studies in Vienna, Ful- bright Fellow and Member of the School of Social Science at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, USA, and the Erwin Schrödinger Fellow at the Centre for Research in Ethnic Relations at the University of Warwick in the UK. Prof. Bauböck’s research on citizenship, European integration, migration, natio- nalism and minority rights has addressed issues that are central to IMER fi elds.

Rainer Bauböck’s English language publications include: • Transnational Citizenship. Membership and Rights in International Migra- tion. Aldershot: Edward Elgar, 1994. • From Aliens to Citizens. Redefi ning the Legal Status of Immigrants in Euro- pe. Aldershot: Avebury (editor), 1994. • The Challenge of Diversity. Integration and Pluralism in Societies of Immi- gration. Aldershot: Avebury (co-editor), 1996. • Blurred Boundaries. Migration, Ethnicity, Citizenship. Aldershot: Ashgate (co-editor), 1998.

4 Prof. Bauböck has also been responsible for a number of research projects dea- ling with international migration processes, immigrants’ legal status and social authority encounters with immigrants. He is also active in several international research networks in connection with IMER issues. Other responsibilities in- clude chairmanship of the Austrian Federation of Political Scientists, editor of the Österreichische Zeitschrift für Politikwissenschaft and for Migration: A European Journal on International Migration and Ethnic Relations, Berlin. In addition he is also well-known for consultancy work at, for example, the Euro- pean Centre for Social Welfare. Rainer Bauböck took up his duties as Willy Brandt Guest Professor on 25th September 2000. One newspaper in particular, the 30th September issue or Ar- betet, devoted six pages to the presentation of Malmö University’s fi rst Willy Brandt Guest Professor. Prior to taking up his duties, Prof. Bauböck paid a short visit to Malmö in order to become better acquainted with the university and to discuss details of the professorship. This proved particularly valuable in that this was the fi rst Guest Professorship appointment of its kind and Prof. Bauböck had considerable experience of similar appointments. Prof. Bauböck facilitated four research seminars (“Recombinant Citizenship”, “Voting Rights for Non-citizens”, “The Limits of Self-determination”, “Multina- tional Federalism: Territorial and Non-territorial”), delivered a lecture for the students (“Changing the Boundaries of Citizenship”) and a lecture (“Public Cul- ture in Societies of Immigration”) at the conference Globalisation in the Local Community organised at IMER in November 2000 (see Appendix 4). He also gave two public lectures, “International Migration and The Ethics of Immigration Control” (13th November 2000) and “International Migration and Liberal Democracies: The Challenge of Integration” (4th December 2000). Prof. Bauböck was readily available to doctoral and other students. During his stay he acted as supervisor to IMER’s doctoral students and a number of IMER’s undergraduate students and was always prepared to contribute advice and to discussions, often at very short notice. It is clear from the undergraduate essay projects undertaken during and after Prof. Bauböck’s guest professorship that the students profi ted greatly from his supervision. The doctoral students also testify to the fact that their supervisory discussions with Prof. Bauböck were extremely enriching. Rainer Bauböck’s stay at IMER came to an end in February 2001, although he did return on 24th April of that year to hold a further research seminar, this time devoted to “European Integration and the Politics of Identity”.

JOHN REX Born in 1925 in South Africa, John Rex emigrated to Britain in 1949. He esta- blished the Department of Sociology at the University of Durham in 1964, and founded a similar department at the University of Warwick in 1970. At War-

5 wick he developed the Centre for Research in Ethnic Relations, which became his place of work for many years. Between the years 1984-1997, he was head of the Social Science Research Council’s Department of Ethnic Relations. He has also been a member of UNESCO’s International Experts Committee on Racism and Race Prejudice and President of the International Sociological Association’s Research Committee on Racial and Ethnic Minorities. While the list of Prof. Rex’s collected works is much too long to be included here, it can be reported that some 20 books, 65 articles and 100 contributions to other publications have been penned.

Some of his most well-known publications include: • Key Problems of Sociological Theory. London: Routledge and Kegan Paul, 1961. • Race Relations in Sociological Theory. London: Weidenfeld and Nicolson, 1970. • Race and Ethnicity. Milton Keynes: Open University Press, 1986. • Ethnic Minorities in the Modern Nation State - Working Papers in the Theo- ry of Multi-Culturalism and Political Integration in European Cities. Ba- singstoke: MacMillan, 1996.

The publication written together with Montserrat Guibernau and entitled The Ethnicity Reader: Migration, Nationalism and Multiculturalism (Cambridge: Polity Press, 1997) is already considered a classic, and is included in the course literature of many universities throughout the world. John Rex’s stay as Willy Brandt Guest Professor was during the period 7th – 18th May 2001. Like his predecessor, Prof. Rex gave two lectures and one se- minar, which comprised: “The Development of Research on Ethnic Relations in Europe”, “Multicultural Institutions in an Egalitarian and Multicultural So- ciety” (public lectures, 9th and 14th May 2001) and “Political Aspects of Mul- ticulturalism and Research in the Multiethnic City” (research seminar). Prof. Rex generously shared his long experience within IMER and its consti- tuent research fi elds with colleagues and students alike and was amply refl ected in individual discussions, lectures, seminars and more informal encounters. In his experience of having founded the subject discipline of IMER, Prof. Rex had access to insights, historical perspectives and background knowledge that were of great interest for everyone connected with the subject areas. Researchers and university lecturers from other disciplines also attended Prof. Rex’s lectu- res and seminars as a result of their personal contacts with Prof. Rex.

ELLIE VASTA Sociologist and Senior Researcher and Coordinator of Integration and Social Change Program at the Centre on Migration, Policy and Society (COMPAS) in

6 Oxford (in 2001 still affi liated to the University of Wollongong, Australia). Ellie Vasta has published extensively in the area of inter-cultural relations. Her research has concentrated on Australian immigration policy, immigrant women and the second generation of immigrants, assessing the theories of identity, community, culture and difference, integration and racism, participa- tion and political mobilisation in relation to ethnicity and multiculturalism. Her research work has been based in Australia as well as in Italy, France, Germany and the UK. She has been a key researcher in a number of major projects:

• Intercultural relations, identity and citizenship (comparative research with Germany, France and Australia (1998-99), funded by the Volkswagen Foun- dation;

• A large Australian Research Council project (1999-2000) on social exclusi- on in New South Wales, Australia;

• Integration: Mapping the Field, UK Home Offi ce funded project in 2001. In 1997, Ellie Vasta was awarded a prestigious French Government Visiting Fellowship at L’Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Science Sociales in Paris as guest of the Centre d’Analyse et d’Intervention Sociologique (CADIS).

Prof. Vasta’s publications include: • Australia’s Post-War Immigration Policy: Power, Identity and Resistance. Brisbane: University of Queensland, 1990. • Australia’s Italians: Culture and Community in a Changing Society, ed. by E. Vasta, S. Castles, C. Alcorso and G. Rando. Sydney: Allen and Unwin, 1996. • “Dialectics of Domination: Racism and Multiculturalism”. In The Teeth are Smiling: The Persistence of Racism in Multicultural Australia, ed. by E. Vasta and S.

London: Macmillan, 2000. • Integration: A Mapping of the Field, with S. Castels, M. Korac and S. Verto- vec. Home Offi ce Report, UK, 2001.

Prof. Ellie Vasta took part in IMER’s educational activities at all levels. In par- ticular she was willing to organise a reading course with the doctoral students at IMER. This was very much appreciated by the students, not only because they were presented with a list of titles relevant for their work, but also for the opportunity of being involved in illuminating discussions with Prof. Vasta. Five of the candidates were examined and passed the course with merit. All the doctoral students had one or more offi cial meetings with Prof. Vasta, in order to discuss their theses. Prof. Vasta also gave two seminars for postgraduate students and lecturers at IMER entitled “Social Exclusion and the Political Construction of Communi- ty” and “Australian Immigration - Segregation or Integration”.

7 One or two undergraduate students arranged weekly meetings with Prof. Vasta to discuss Australian immigration and multiculturalism. For the undergraduates, she gave lectures entitled “Australian Immigration Policy – an overview” and “Australia’s Post-war Immigration: Institutional and Social Science Research”. The public lecture that Prof. Vasta gave at IMER on 17th October 2001 was entitled “The Politics of Community”. Regarding the contact with Malmö City representatives, Prof. Vasta was intro- duced to the Metropolitan Initiative as applied to the City of Malmö by MS BRITTA STRÖM, responsible for the integration programmes at Malmö City Offi ce. Aided by the director and personnel of Hyllie municipality Job and De- velopment Centre, Ms Ström also organised Prof. Vasta’s visit to the Centre’s representatives on 4th December 2001. She was also given a guided tour of Rosengård, where several IMER scholars conducted their research. During her stay at IMER, Prof. Vasta programmed a couple of meetings ab- road in connection with three research projects that she was either engaged in or planning to undertake. She continued her writing on “Social Exclusion and the Political Construction of Community”. As the Willy Brandt Guest Profes- sor she participated in the conference “Network Revolution, Cultural Patterns and European Politics (Vadstena, 27th-31st August 2001) and the workshop “Critical Race Studies” (CMS, Lund, 15th December 2001). She also met colleagues at Linköping University in connection with a colla- borative project on the informal economy and community in three EU countri- es: Sweden Italy and the UK. Dr Pieter Bevelander, a lecturer at IMER, was invited to join the project.

JOCK COLLINS Economist at the School of Finance and Economics, University of Technology, Sydney. Prior to joining the School of Finance and Economics at UTS in 1977, Jock Collins was a tutor in the Economics Department at Sydney University. He teaches economics and management, labour market economics, international economics and economics of leisure and tourism. His research areas include Australian immigration and the labour market, ethnic business and comparati- ve immigration studies. Prof. Collins has been a consultant to the NSW Department of Treasury, the Federal Department of Immigration and Multicultural Affairs, the Offi ce of Multicultural Affairs, Department of Prime Minister and Cabinet, the NSW Department of Education and Training and the NSW Ethnic Affairs Commis- sion. He has received external research grants from the Australian Research Council, as well as the Dutch and Canadian Governments. Writing on Australian immigration matters since the early 1970s, Prof. Col-

8 lins is the author and co-author of several books. More than 40 of his articles have been published in international and national journals and related books, and he often comments on immigration matters in the Australian media.

Prof. Collins’s most important publications include: • Migrant Hands in a Distant Land: Australia’s Postwar Immigration. Syd- ney: Pluto Press, 1988 (1991). • A Shop Full of Dreams: Ethnic Small Business in Australia (K. Gibson, C. Alcorso, S. Castles and D. Tait). Sydney: Pluto Press, 1995. • Cosmopolitan Sydney: Exploring the World in One City (with Antonio Cas- tillo). Sydney: Pluto Press, 1998. • Kebabs, Kids, Cops and Crime: The Racialization of Youth, Ethnicity and Crime (with G. Nobel, S. Poynting and P. Tabar). Sydney: Pluto Press, 2000. • The Other Sydney: Communities, Identities and Inequalities in Western Syd- ney (edited with S. Poynting) Common Ground, Melbourne, 2000. • Cosmopolitan Melbourne: Exploring the world in one city (with L. Mondello, J. Breheney and T. Childs), Sydney: Big Box Publishing, 2001.

The Malmö University library has added these books to its collection, and are available not only for the students who attended Prof. Collins’s lectures, but also for new generations of students and general readership. The Guest Profes- sors’ publications will also contribute to the library’s profi le-in-the-make. Professor Jock Collins delivered lectures to the undergraduate students entit- led “Australian Immigration and Multiculturalism: Key Issues and Current De- bates” and “Youth, Ethnicity and Crime in Australia”. The lectures were inclu- ded in the student schedule so that all the IMER undergraduate students could attend. Some of them were inspired enough to devote their examination essays to the questions discussed by Prof. Collins. Meetings were also organised with the Professor, who helped the students to focus on their chosen topics and fi nd the relevant literature. Prof. Collins also presented three papers at the research seminars for PhD candidates and lecturers at IMER: “Ethnic Entrepreneurship in Australia”, “Youth, Ethnicity and Crime in Australia”, and “Immigration and Immigrant Settlement in Australia: Political Responses, Discourses and New Challenges”. He also presented a paper on “Cultural Diversity and The Sydney Olympic Games” to the Department of Sport and Recreation, at Malmö University’s Faculty of Education. These seminars resulted in lively discussions with the graduate students and lecturers and expanded our insights regarding the practical connections bet- ween ethnicity, the labour market and crime. The lectures and research semi- nars included comparisons of Australian and Swedish history of immigration, the current political disputes provoked by immigration to Australia and diffe-

9 rent European countries, and how Sweden might learn from the Australian ex- perience. Throughout his fi ve month stay at Malmo University, Prof. Collins had a continuous dialogue with staff and research students on these and other matters related to immigration and ethnic diversity. Prof. Collins’s broad knowledge of and intense engagement in the different immigrant-related policies in Australia proved to be of interest not only to sc- holars at IMER, but also for the policy-designers and practitioners dealing with the immigrants’ small enterprises and public discourses and prevention of cri- me in the City of Malmö. On 25th February 2002, a meeting was organised with Ms BRITTA STRÖM, responsible for the programmes on integration at the Malmö City Offi ce, and her colleagues Ms MARIANA MAURITZON and Mr ALF MERLÖV, Head of the Department of Employment and Training. Mr JEAN-DANIEL MAURIN and Ms VISNJA OREL from the Trade and Indus- try Agency were also present at this meeting. On 30th April 2002, Prof. Collins gave a public lecture on “Youth, Ethnicity and Crime in Sydney”. The lecture was announced in the newspaper “Syd- svenskan”, as well as through standard Malmö University information chan- nels on the Internet. Mariana Mauritzon (Brottsförebyggande frågor, Malmö stad) facilitated the attendance of a number of people whose work is connected to institutional dealings with crime prevention in Malmö. The lively discussion that followed the lecture proved that meetings of academics and practitioners are both meaningful and stimulating for all concerned. While holding the Willy Brandt Guest Professorship, Jock Collins also pre- sented a number of other conference and seminar papers to universities in Swe- den, Belgium and the United States. These presentations included:

• “Ethnic entrepreneurs and the economic, spatial and social development of Sydney”, Paper to the American Association of Geographers Conference, Los Angeles, USA, March 19th-22nd, 2002.

• “Cosmopolitan Capitalism: Ethnic Entrepreneurship in Australia”, Paper to the National Institute for Working Life, Linköping University, Norrköping, Sweden, 24th April 2002.

• “Youth, Ethnicity and Crime in Multicultural Societies: the Case of Austra- lia” Paper to the Le Recontres du CEDEM, Centre for Studies on Ethnicity and Migration, Universite de Liege, Leige, Belgium, 25th April 2002.

• “Ethnicity, Gender, Class and Entrepreneurship: The Australian Experience”, Paper to the Faculty of Education Staff Seminar, Umeå University, Sweden, 28th May 2002.

10 GRETE BROCHMANN Sociologist and Research Director of the Oslo Institute of Social Research Grete Brochmann is an internationally recognised scholar who has also worked in Belgium and the USA. She is a member of a governmental law committee in Norway - commissioned to formulate a new foreign law, and a member of the social science committee of the Norwegian Research Council. Focusing on migration-related topics, Prof. Grete Brochmann has mainly been dealing with the signifi cance of immigration politics in European countri- es and is currently writing about questions of integration in the frames of the assessment of power in Norway, as well as on history of immigration to Nor- way. Her most important authored and co-authored publications include: Middle East Avenue: Female Migration from Sri Lanka to the Gulf, Mechanisms of Immigration Control, and International Migration, Immobility and Develop- ment: Multidisciplianry Perspectives. During her stay at IMER, Prof. Grete Brochmann gave lectures for the under- graduate students, such as “Current Traps of European Immigration Policies”, “Kvinnelig migrasjon i et utviklingsperspektiv. Sri Lanka som case”, and “Ci- tizenship - sammfunsborgerskap som begrenset gode: Hva skal väre limet i fl erkulturelle stater?”. Her research seminars for teachers and doctoral students at IMER included the following topics: “Historisk perspektiv på invandring till Norge”, “Den nye arbeidsinnvandringspolitikken” and “Nasjonale paradigmer i migrasjonsforsk- ningen?” The topic for Prof. Brochmann’s public lecture was decided upon at the mee- ting with Ms BRITTA STRÖM, responsible for the integration programmes at Malmö City Offi ce. The public lecture entitled “Har staten makt til å integrere invandrere?” was held on November 11th 2000 at IMER’s premises and well- attended by the people working at different offi ces of the City of Malmö and invited by Ms Ström. During her stay, Prof. Grete Brochmann also held a seminar, consisting of fi ve meetings, with the doctoral students present at IMER. All the students used the occasion of the seminar to present their dissertations in progress. At a concluding seminar with Prof. Grete Brochmann, the doctoral students expres- sed satisfaction with the feedback they had received from the Professor, as well as with the opportunity to discuss the links between theories and methods in a small group and directly related to their dissertations. In her capacity as the Willy Brandt Guest Professor at IMER, Grete Broch- mann took part in two international conferences. She was the key note speaker at the IMER conference in (October 2002), delivering the lecture “Welfare State, Integration and the Legitimacy of the Majority”. She was the invited speaker at the conference “National Paradigms of Migration Research”

11 in Osnabrück (December 2002), organised by the Friedrich Ebert Stiftung and the Institute for Migration Research and Intercultural Studies (IMIS) at the University of Osnabrück.

THOMAS FAIST Political Scientist and Political Sociologist; at the time of holding the Willy Brandt Guest Professorship he was Professor at the University of Applied Sci- ences in Bremen (Hochschule Bremen), where he organised the programme “International Studies in Political Management” – the fi rst of its kind in Ger- many. Thomas Faist’s main research interests lie in the fi eld of international migra- tion and immigrant integration, as well as in social policy and comparative politics. He is a member of the editorial board of international journals such as Ethnic & Racial Studies and The Sociological Quarterly. He has served as an advisor to the German government on migration and integration issues. His current research focuses on political debates and practical policies con- nected with dual citizenship. He leads a project involving Germany, Sweden and Holland (with Mikael Spång from IMER as the Swedish participant) called “Multiple Citizenship in a Globalising World” and that is supported by the Volkswagen Foundation (2002-2005). He is also the leader of the long-term project “Transnational Social Spaces and Democratic Legitimacy”, which forms part of a special research unit called “Changes in Statehood” and funded by the German Science Foundation (2003-2006). This project deals with chan- ging state capacities concerning issues such as undocumented migration and immigration, asylum policy and the import of confl icts. Prof. Faist’s recent publications include: The Volume and Dynamics of Inter- national Migration and Transnational Social Spaces (Oxford: Clarendon Press, 2000), “Transnationalization in international migration: implications for the study of citizenship and culture”, in Ethnic and Racial Studies 23, 2, 2000, “Beyond National and Post-National Models: Transnational Life Worlds“, in: Luigi Tomasi (ed.) New Horizons in Sociological Theory and Research (Bur- lington, VA: Ashgate, 2001), “Social Citizenship in the European Union: Nested Membership”, Journal of Common Market Studies 39, 1, 2001, “’Extension du domaine de la lutte’: The Politics of International Migration and Security”, in International Migration Review 36, 1, 2002, Identity and Integration: Migrants in Western Europe (co-edited; Aldershot: Ashgate, 2003), The Future of Citizen- ship (co-authored with Peter Kivisto; Oxford: Blackwell, forthcoming.) Professor Faist took up his appointment of Willy Brant Guest Professor on 2nd April 2001 and completed his stay at IMER on 12th April 2001. During this short time he held a seminar (“Dual Citizenship – Overlapping Membership and Transstate Spaces”), gave a lecture (“Immigration and the Welfare State – Ger- many in Comparative Perspective”), delivered a public lecture (“Integration(s)

12 of Poles in Germany”, 4 April 2001), and held supervisory discussions with IMER’s doctoral students and various student project groups. Like his predeces- sor, Prof. Bauböck, Prof. Faist conveyed the Willy Brandt Professorship as one of openness, availability and having an international perspective. During his second six-month long stay at IMER in the spring semester of 2002/2003, Prof. Faist gave lectures for the undergraduate students: “The Ma- king of Immigration Policy. Lessons from Germany” and “Transnational So- cial Spaces: A Conceptual Overview”. His research seminars for teachers and doctoral students at IMER included the following themes: “Transnational Social Spaces and Democratic Legitima- cy - a project platform”, “Dual Citizenship in a Globalising World -Germany in comparative perspective”, and “Transnational Politics”. Prof. Faist’s public lecture, given on May 15th 2003, was entitled “September 11 and the Consequences for Migration”. On June 10th-11th 2003, Prof. Thomas Faist participated in the international workshop “Transnational Spaces: Disciplinary Perspectives” organised at IMER.

An interview with Prof. Cattacin by Lotta Solding was published on http://www.mah.se/templates/Page____24736.aspx (IMER’s web page) as well as http://www.mah.se/templates/ExternalNews____24957.aspx (Nyhetsbrevet). Prof. Cattacin gave three research seminars for the doctoral students and the members of the staff at IMER, on ”Misanthropy, Xenophobia and Right-wing Extremist Attitudes”, ”Migrant Associations” and ”Migration and Health”. He also gave lectures for the undergraduate students of IMER on ”Urban Citizenship”, ”Migration, Urbanity and Social Policies”, and ”Urban Dyna- mics and Migration: Exclusion, Inclusion and Innovation” (with Adrian Favel, Dept of Sociology, UCLA, and Philip Muus, IMER). Prof. Cattacin’s Willy Brandt Public Lecture, given at Fridhemsborg on No- vember 25th 2005, was entitled ”Migration and Differentiated Citizenship: On the (Post-) Americanization of Europe”. His lecture focused on recent changes in the national migration policies of several European countries. General trends have been discerned, showing that European policies in the fi eld of migration are becoming increasingly similar to those of the USA, although the European way of adopting liberal policies is biased by the institutional tradition of the welfare state. A public seminar that Prof. Cattacin gave together with Philip Muus from IMER gained considerable media attention and attracted a large audience – particularly as it was devoted to the riots in France. It was held at IMER on November 9th under the title ”Riots in France: Wrong Neighbourhoods or Wrong People?”.

As Guest Professor in memory of Willy Brandt at IMER, Sandro Cattacin gave several two keynote speeches at international conferences: “Migration and Citizenship”, at the Congress of the ESPAnet in Fribourg (September 24th 2005). “Subsidiarity in social policies” at the annual congress of Italian Observa- tory of the Family in Bologna (October 6th 2005). During his stay at IMER, Prof. Cattacin reacted to current events in Europe by publishing a number of newspaper articles, in Le Temps (Eclairages) of September 8th 2005 (“De droite comme de gauche, le populisme est une éter- nelle lutte contre les étrangers”), il caffè of October 9th (“L’apprendimento collettivo della xenophobia”), il caffè of October 24th (“Epidemie. La forza destabilizzante della società dei rischi”), il caffè of November 13th with S. Baglioni (“Periferia. Il ‘non-luogo’ dove l’egoismo diventa fertile), Le Temps of November 16th with S. Baglioni (“Ce qui se passe dans les banlieues de France a très peu à voir avec l’immigration”), il caffè of November 20th (“Una ‘religione’ tra modernità e post-nazionalismo”). Three workshops on Migration and Health were organised under the auspi- ces of the Willy Brandt Guest Professorship’s Chair, by Prof. Sandro Cattacin and Carin Björngren Cuadra, PhD, affi liated to both IMER and the School of Health and Society. The workshops dealt with Barriers to Health Care Access (held on October 21st 2005), Migrant-Friendly Hospitals (held December 1st 2005), and with Health Strategies of Marginalized Groups: Migrant Prostitutes, Illegal Wor- kers and Asylum Seekers (held on December 9th 2005). They involved participants from IMER and The School of Health and So- ciety at Malmö University, as well as participants from Lund University, the National Institute of Working Life, International Church, and Skåne Region Public Projects. A foreign participant – Prof. Cattacin’s colleague – presented her research at each event. A detailed presentation of the workshops is available in Appendix 7.

22 PART 3

SCIENTIFIC PUBLICATIONS IN THE FRAMES OF WILLY BRANDT GUEST PROFESSORSHIP

Two kinds of publications are presented in this part of the report, both of which are published by IMER, Malmö University in the frames of the Willy Brandt Guest Professorship. These are the Willy Brandt Series of Working Papers in International Migration and Ethnic Relations, and the books published or to be published in the series of Willy Brandt Conference Proceedings.

WILLY BRANDT SERIES OF WORKING PAPERS IN INTERNATIONAL MIGRATION AND ETHNIC RELATIONS

The Willy Brandt Series of Working Papers in International Migration and Ethnic Relations is a forum for research in, and debate about, issues of migra- tion, ethnicity and related topics. This Series makes available original manu- scripts by the Willy Brandt Guest Professors at IMER. The Series has been established in order to contribute to the wider and more permanent infl uence of the presence of Willy Brandt Guest Professors in mig- ration-related research work in Sweden. As the Professorship holders are all internationally recognised scholars, the inclusion of such working papers in their bibliographies is an effi cient way of promoting IMER and Malmö Univer- sity internationally. The Working Papers Series, which bears the international standard series number ISSN 1650-5743, is edited by Maja Povrzanović Frykman. Björn Fryklund, Professor at IMER, is Editor–in-Chief. The Series is available as printed copies as well as online, at the address http://www.bit.mah.se/MUEP, or directly at http://dspace.mah.se:8080/han- dle/2043/679/browse-title. It can also be reached through the Malmö högskola website (fi rst entering

23 “IMER”, then “Forskning på IMER”) as well as through the VEGA system of Malmö University library. All the papers are in pfd-format and can be downloaded free of charge. This ensures the spreading of particular research insights and also refl ects the public nature of the Willy Brandt Guest Professorship.

1/01 REINER BAUBÖCK. 2001. PUBLIC CULTURE IN SOCIETIES OF IMMIGRATION Political liberalism defends the rights of individuals and minorities against the danger of ma- jority tyranny, but democratic institutions and decisions can only be sustained if they enjoy broad popular support. The specifi c problem of securing rights for cultural minorities is that majorities have no self-interested reason in tying their hands in this way because they know that they will never themselves be in the position of the minority. For this reason, describing the rights of immigrants as a constraint on the interests of democratic majorities may be cor- rect for the purposes of moral theory but offers little guidance for how to win majority support for this task. The idea that the changing public culture of a society of immigration is the result of self-transformation offers a more attractive interpretation. It rejects the construction of na- tive majorities and immigrant minorities as permanently separate groups. Instead it promotes the image of a heterogeneous public with a shared interest both in representing and in integra- ting its diverse groups.

2/01 REINER BAUBÖCK. 2001. MULTINATIONAL FEDERALISM: TERRITORIAL OR CULTURAL AUTONOMY? Cultural autonomy is compatible with liberal democracy if it is conceived as an extended power of voluntary associations to govern their internal affairs. The real trouble starts when cultural autonomy includes the devolution of tasks and powers that in a liberal democracy properly belong to territorial governments representing citizens rather than members of iden- tity groups. However, there are contextual justifi cations for such kinds of non-territorial fede- ralism; in deeply divided societies a democratic polity can sometimes only be built by starting out from a contractual relation that integrates the most alienated or oppressed groups by gran- ting them far-reaching autonomy. Yet, such arrangements should be regarded as exceptions rather than models and as transitory rather than permanent.

3/01 THOMAS FAIST. 2001. DUAL CITIZENSHIP AS OVERLAPPING MEMBERSHIP Dual citizenship has increased dramatically in recent decades. More and more states are tole- rating or even accepting dual membership for various reasons. This is a puzzling trend be- cause citizenship and political loyalty to sovereign states were though to be indivisible until very recently. The new developments cast doubt on the assumption that overlapping member- ship violates the principle of popular sovereignty and that multiple ties and loyalties of citi- zens in border-crossing social spaces and world society contradict state sovereignty. The argu- ment put forward is that dual citizenship is neither an evil not an intrinsic value for political communities. Dual citizenship is tied to genuine links of citizens across various sovereign political communities. Three perspectives shed light on dual citizenship: national, postnatio- nal and transstate approaches. Analytically, a transstate perspective can best describe relati- vely dense and continuous border-crossing ties as the overlapping membership of citizens across several political communities. In contrast to national concepts, a transstate view grasps the integrative potentials of reciprocity and solidarity in border-crossing spaces for bounded political communities. Also, a transstate perspective does not make unwarranted assumptions about a quantum leap in collective affi liation from the ‘nation’ to ‘Europe’ or even ‘humanity’, as assumed by views such as postnational membership, suprastate citizenship and global de- mocracy.

4/01 JOHN REX. 2003. THE BASIC ELEMENTS OF A SYSTEMATIC THEORY OF ETHNIC RELATIONS Offering a conceptual analysis, the paper demonstrates theoretical connections between the notions of primordiality and small-scale community; ethnies and ethnic nationalism; modern

25 nation state and related forms of nationalism; the analysis of the structure of empires and co- lonial societies, and of the reconstitution of post-imperial societies; the concepts of economic and political migration and migrant ethnic mobilisation; the implications of national policy responses to migration; and, fi nally, the notion of multicultural societies. An overall general theory of nationalism and ethnicity, transcending the more specifi c theories which have been used in understanding small-scale communities, nations and transnational communities, is envisaged.

1/02 JOCK COLLINS. 2003. ETHNIC ENTREPRENEURSHIP IN AUSTRALIA This paper explores the historical and contemporary dimensions of immigrant self-employ- ment and entrepreneurship in Australia. In doing so it draws on the growing literature on im- migrant entrepreneurship in Australia and the literature on the impact of globalisation on western economies. The paper presents a brief history of the important role of immigrant en- trepreneurship and self-employment in Australia before presenting 1996 census data on rates of immigrant self-employment by gender and by generation. The paper then summarizes the key fi ndings of the Australian research into immigrant self-employment, with a particular emphasis on the ways that the immigrant self-employed in Australia draw on class resources and ethnic resources. It ends by arguing that theories of immigrant self-employment must fo- cus on two key, interrelated, aspects. First, the ways that ethnicity, gender and social class interact through a complex, uneven and changing lens of racialisation. Second, the important role of the way in which the processes of globalisation and the state responses to it shapes different patterns of the embeddedness of immigrants and, in turn, their opportunities as entre- preneurs and wage labourers.

2/02 JOCK COLLINS. 2003. IMMIGRATION AND IMMIGRANT SETTLEMENT IN AUSTRALIA: POLITICAL RESPONSES, DISCOURSES AND NEW CHALLENGES Australian society has been shaped more by immigration and immigrants than most countries in the world today. This paper examines the changes to the character and composition of Aus- tralian immigration in the post-1945 period and analyses the impact of these changes on the public discourses and policy responses related to Australian immigration and settlement phi- losophies and practices in Australia today. It fi rst looks at the Australian immigration experi- ence, and how immigration policy has changed in recent decades as a result of globalisation. It then outlines the changing composition and character of the Australian immigration intake as a consequence of these policy changes, and at the key discourses about Australian immigra- tion that have accompanied these changes. The paper then examines the way in which immi- grant settlement or integration policies and practices have changed in light of the impact of globalisation on the political, economic and social climate in Australian society, with a par- ticular emphasis on the debates about Australian multiculturalism. Finally, the paper address- es the new challenges for government policy makers and for decision makers in the private and non-government sectors of Australian society that are a consequence to the changing dy- namics of the Australian immigration experience in a changing global world.

3/02 ELLIE VASTA. 2003. AUSTRALIA’S POST-WAR IMMIGRATION: INSTITUTIONAL AND SOCIAL SCIENCE RESEARCH This paper, which is work-in-progress, provides an initial review of the theoretical traditions adopted by immigration researchers in Australia over the past fi fty years or so. Many research- ers have played a vital role in the development of both entrance and settlement policies while others have carried out social science research that has remained quite distinct from policy needs. The social sciences have not only contributed ideas and systematic knowledge to the development of policy, they have also provided systematic data and critical analysis which has countered misleading populist beliefs about such issues as economic growth, unemployment

26 and institutional racism. In Australia, social scientists have been infl uenced by the theoretical paradigms that are dominant in their disciplines at the time of their research. In some cases, a theoretical tradition such as that of assimilation (following the Chicago School) coincided with the common sense ideologies held by the society at large. At other times, as with the in- troduction of multiculturalism, social scientists provided the theoretical foundations for what was considered a necessary basis for a culturally plural society.

4/02 ELLIE VASTA. 2004. COMMUNITIES AND SOCIAL CAPITAL In this article, I am concerned with how social capital circulates within and across communities. Social capital entails an accumulation of social and moral resources within groups or social collectivities which include norms of reciprocity, social trust, co-operation, and networks of civic engagement. Ethnic communities in Australia are frequently accused of indulging in identity politics that leads to a form of ethnic closure. In order to address this issue more clearly, two main questions are posed: fi rst, does identity formation contribute to a form of separation and ethnic closure or can communities, based on identity formations and identity politics, enhance their levels of civic virtue and collective action; secondly, are ethnic communities in Australia rallying together through various forms of collective action to achieve social justice goals within their own ethnic groups and across the broader community?

1/03 GRETE BROCHMANN. 2004. THE CURRENT TRAPS OF EUROPEAN IMMIGRATION POLICIES The main thrust of this paper is to describe and analyze the dynamics between the various EU member states and the European Community in the development towards a common immigra- tion policy. There has so far been a striking contrast between the economic, social and political signifi cance of migration, and the degree to which it has been subject to international organi- zation. It is argued that conditional convergence has been a more relevant term than harmoni- zation describing the process up till the end of the century, and the main reason for this is the strength of national interests and the impact of tradition and experience of policy-making in this realm.

2/03 GRETE BROCHMANN. 2004. WELFARE STATE, INTEGRATION AND LEGITIMACY OF THE MAJORITY: THE CASE OF NORWAY Assimilation has in recent years been established as an illegitimate power strategy in most contexts in Europe. Apart from trying to nuance the content of this position, the paper raises questions as to the possible hidden power agenda in the integration strategy, or rather, which are the intentional or non-intentional power related implications of this strategy? Who is inte- grating whom into what kind of society? How are conceptions of nationhood maintained, le- gitimized and possibly reproduced?

3/03 THOMAS FAIST. 2004. MULTIPLE CITIZENSHIP IN A GLOBALISING WORLD: THE POLITICS OF DUAL CITIZENSHIP IN COMPARATIVE PERSPECTIVE Over the last few decades the number of cases of multiple nationalities worldwide has in- creased rapidly, and for various reasons this is being tolerated by more and more sovereign states. This is astonishing when one considers that a few decades ago citizenship and political loyalty to a state and, in particular, a specifi c national political community, were still consid- ered inseparable. Despite the fundamental challenges raised by dual citizenship, the empirical evidence suggests that most immigration states have successfully adapted to problems of sov- ereignty and legitimacy. State authorities in many immigration countries in Europe and North America have gradually come to see dual citizenship neither as evil nor as an intrinsic value

27 desirable as such. Nonetheless, the degree to which dual nationality is tolerated by states dif- fers widely. Since immigrants themselves have developed manifold strategies to use dual na- tionality – states and citizens have been engaged in processes of mutual accommodation. The questions deal with are: What are the factors encouraging the increasing tolerance towards multiple nationalities? How can cross-national differences regarding de jure and de facto tol- erance towards dual nationality be explained? And what are the consequences of the growing tolerance towards dual nationality for statehood and immigrant policies? Based on the fi nd- ings of postnational, national and transnational perspectives the analysis proposes to analyze tolerance and resistance towards dual nationality as a path-dependent process.

4/03 THOMAS FAIST. 2004. THE MIGRATION-SECURITY NEXUS: INTERNATIONAL MIGRATION AND SECURITY BEFORE AND AFTER 9/11 9/11 has reinforced the discursive securitization of migration and integration politics and po- licies in major immigration countries, the so-called migration-security nexus. To explore this argument, the analysis deals with three propositions. First, the end of the Cold War has opened political space for focusing on diffuse and hard-to-grasp security threats that do not emanate from sovereign states but from non-state actors, involving issues such as crime, drugs, migra- tion. International migration has served as a convenient reference point for unspecifi c fears. Second, securitizing policies such as stepped-up border controls and stricter internal surveil- lance of immigrants produces unintended effects. Securitizing policy issues creates higher expectations among voters that governments are actually able to effectively control transna- tional movements. Third, 9/11 entails ambiguous consequences for immigrant integration. Clearly, the levels of harassment against immigrants from the Middle East increased conside- rably, at least on the short term. Yet the crisis situation may even lead to an increased immer- sion into the politics of the respective national immigration states. General attitudes and poli- cies towards cultural pluralism will probably not be signifi cantly affected by 9/11. Overall, the exploration of the migration-security nexus is part of broader studies into the virtuous and vicious cycles of transnationalization, the growing importance of non-state actors in world and national politics.

1/04 KATHERINE FENNELLY. 2004. LISTENING TO THE EXPERTS: PROVIDER RECOMMENDATIONS ON THE HEALTH NEEDS OF IMMIGRANTS AND REFUGEES A growing body of literature describes what has come to be know as the ‘healthy migrant’ phenomenon - the fact that immigrants to the United States and Western Europe countries are often healthier than native-born residents in their new countries of residence. Over time, many immigrants lose this health advantage for reasons that are not fully understood. Data are pre- sented from in-depth interviews with 62 health and social service providers working with immigrants in the state of Minnesota. Although the state is home to many refugees who were victims of torture or severe deprivation in their home countries, the majority of providers de- fi ned the principal needs of their clients as affordable housing, jobs and access to health servi- ces, rather than needs related to health conditions and services per se. The providers’ open- ended comments paint a picture of the ways in which post-immigration experiences lead to tangible stresses that compromise immigrants’ health and well-being.

2/04 DON J. DEVORETZ. 2004. IMMIGRANT ISSUES AND CITIES: LESSONS FROM MALMÖ AND TORONTO National debates surrounding immigration, tolerance and integration are hallmarks of the early 21st century. However, immigrants no longer move to countries but concentrate in cities where the immediate benefi ts and challenges of immigration arise. What happens to a city when immigrants become the numerical majority in one or two generations? How do cities convert this revolutionary change from a potential liability to an asset? In short, what immi-

28 gration and integration policies at the city level can turn immigrant-receiving cities into suc- cessful and celebrated world metropolises? These questions are addressed in light of the expe- riences of Malmö and Toronto.

3/04 DON J. DEVORETZ. 2004. THE ECONOMICS OF CANADIAN CITIZENSHIP Immigrants ascend to citizenship at differential rates in Canada. Why is this so? This paper investigates the economic costs and benefi ts derived from citizenship to rationalize the diffe- rential rates of citizenship ascension. Canadian earnings evidence confi rms the sizable econo- mic benefi ts of citizenship. A decomposition analysis attributes this benefi t to self-selection, namely only the more productive immigrants become Canadian citizens.

4/04 KATHERINE FENNELLY. 2005. CORRELATES OF PREJUDICE: DATA FROM MIDWESTERN COMMUNITIES IN THE UNITED STATES Many rural communities in the American Midwest have experienced relatively rapid demo- graphic change from predominantly white, European-origin populations to ones with sizeable percentages of immigrants. Such change creates a natural laboratory for analysis of prejudice and threats. In this paper we present state-wide survey data from Minnesota on white resi- dents’ attitudes toward Hispanics in January, 2001, and then use qualitative data gathered seven months later for a close-up view of relations between US-born and foreign born resi- dents in a rural town with a large meat processing plant. Comparisons are made of perceptions of symbolic and economic threats from immigrants on the part of three groups of Euro-Amer- icans: community leaders, middle class and working class residents. Participants’ own expla- nations of their attitudes are used to describe nativist sentiments within the context of reported personal experiences and changes in the rural community. In the third section of the paper we listen to the comments of immigrants and refugees in the same community about their rela- tionships with white residents. Taken together, these studies shed light on the nature of preju- dice against immigrants and the kinds of public policies that may foster empathy.

1/05 MARCO MARTINIELLO. 2005. POLITICAL PARTICIPATION, MOBILISATION AND REPRESENTATION OF IMMIGRANTS AND THEIR OFFSPRING IN EUROPE This paper provides a qualitative overview of the state-of-the art on issues related to immi- grants’ political participation, mobilisation and representation, and also presents some re- search perspectives to be explored in the future. It is divided into seven parts. The fi rst part addresses conceptual and defi nition issues. The second presents and discusses the thesis of political quiescence of immigrants. Part three part focuses on the explanations of the various forms of immigrant political participation. The fourth part presents a typology of the various forms of immigrant political participation in the country of settlement. Part fi ve specifi cally discusses the issue of transnational political participation. The sixth identifi es gaps in the lite- rature to which new research perspectives might correspond. The concluding policy-oriented part addresses the issue of how to evaluate and assess the political participation of immigrants and their offspring in the country of residence.

2/05 NIKOS PAPASTERGIADIS. 2005. THE INVASION COMPLEX: DEEP HISTORICAL FEARS AND WIDE OPEN ANXIETIES Fear of an external invasion has always operated alongside guilt over the foundational occu- pation of the land in Australia. The popular support for the Prime Minister John Howard’s pre-election stand against the refugees in 2001 and his dogged defensiveness during the indi- genous-settler reconciliation process revealed the unease over cultural difference in the natio- nal imaginary. The myth of terra nullius and the fantasy of an ‘Asian invasion’ are two con-

29 stitutive features in Australian nationalism. Combined they have produced a profound anxiety about space and mobility. This essay addresses the rhetorical responses to the ‘invasion’ in order to consider the way fear is used to shape contemporary subjectivity.

3/05 NIKOS PAPASTERGIADIS. 2005. MOBILITY AND THE NATION: SKINS, MACHINES AND COMPLEX SYSTEMS This essay re-examines the public fears of invasion at the time of heightened anxiety over terrorist attacks and in light of the ongoing refugee crisis. It considers how discourses on the nation-state and mobility have been confi ned to an oppositional model. The twin pillars of micro-agency and macro-structuralism that have supported the prevailing sociological theo- ries of migration present the nation-state as a bounded system. By identifying the fear of ex- ternal agents and the ambivalence towards mobility, this essay traces a secret complicity bet- ween theories of migration and the preservation of the nation-state as a unifi ed and exclusionary social system. The global fl ows and local affi liations of contemporary society are better grasped through complex systems theory, which transcends the oppositional logic of belonging and movement.

WILLY BRANDT CONFERENCE PROCEEDINGS

A book based on the conference organised under the auspices of the Willy Brandt Guest Professorship’s Chair was published in 2004 (Transnational Spa- ces: Disciplinary Perspectives). A second is to be edited in 2006 (Migration and Health: Organisational Perspectives), and a third (The Economic Conse- quences of Citizenship Ascension) is in the process of preparation. While the fi rst book was edited by the Willy Brandt forksarassistent at IMER (Maja Povrzanović Frykman), the former Willy Brandt Guest Professors (San- dro Cattacin and Don DeVoretz) are involved in the editing of the other two. Their co-editors (Carin Cuadra and Pieter Bevelander) are affi liated to IMER and deal with the same research fi elds as the respective Guest Professors. The Willy Brandt Conference Proceedings are yet another way of establish- ing a meaningful collaboration that is not only documented in the books, but also serves as career enhancement and as international promotion for the schol- ars working at IMER. At the same time, the books mentioned below are and will be used in the teaching at IMER and other Swedish universities (e.g. chapters from Transna- tional Spaces: Disciplinary Perspectives are used in undergraduate teaching at Lund University and have also been used at graduate level at the University of Linköping). As the books are available through electronic publishing, the transparency and public character of the Guest Professorship at IMER in Memory of Willy Brandt is confi rmed and the free distribution of scientifi c results ensured. The following section includes information about the books published as Willy Brandt Conference Proceedings:

30 TRANSNATIONAL SPACES: DISCIPLINARY PERSPECTIVES, edited by Maja Povrzanović Frykman. Malmö: Malmö University 2004, ISBN 91-7104-060-9. Available electronically (free to download) at http://dspace.mah.se:8080/handle/2043/677

The fi rst publication in the series of Willy Brandt Conference Proceedings pub- lication makes available the proceedings from the international workshop, “Transnational spaces: disciplinary perspectives”, held at the School of Inter- national Migration and Ethnic Relations (IMER), Malmö University, on June 10-11, 2003 (see Appendix 5). Both the workshop and this publication were made possible by the Guest Professorship in Memory of Willy Brandt, which is a gift to IMER, Malmö University, fi nanced by the City of Malmö and sponsored by MKB Fastighets AB. Thomas Faist participated in the workshop in his capacity of Guest Profes- sor in Memory of Willy Brandt. The organiser of the workshop and the editor of this volume held the position of Research Fellow in the frames of Guest Professorship. The intention of the workshop was to bring together scholars of different disciplinary backgrounds who have an interest in transnational connections and imply transnational perspectives in their research. The initial idea was to only invite those scholars for whom some aspects of transnationalism (understood mainly as immigrants’ transnational social spaces) are the particular fi eld of research. Thomas Faist suggested that a more interesting and challenging ap- proach – and which actually defi ned the fi nal format of the workshop – would be to also include people who dealt with other kinds of transnational spaces. The participants were asked to focus on epistemological and methodological questions, using concrete research projects as the point of departure. They ad- dressed the state of the art concerning transnational spaces within the concep- tual universe of their respective disciplines. Another benefi t was that, as they work in different countries, they were able to exchange insights into research politics and preferences in different national contexts. The papers published in this volume range from elaborate disciplinary over- views to outlines of research projects yet to be undertaken. However, they all engage in answering the questions concerning defi nitions of the term and the appropriate methods of research into transnational spaces – in conceptual and empirical efforts towards the general study of transnationalisation. In discussing the utility of and the need for concepts associated with transna- tionalism, this publication contributes to the general purpose of the Guest Pro- fessorship in Memory of Willy Brandt, established to strengthen and develop research as well as to create closer international links in the fi eld of internatio- nal migration and ethnic relations.

THE WILLY BRANDT GUEST PROFESSORSHIP HOLDERS: EXPERIENCES AND OPINIONS

In the fi ve-year assessment of different aspects of the Guest Professorship in Memory of Willy Brandt, the Professorship holders’ opinions and suggestions were regarded as being of central importance. Eighteen questions were there- fore formulated and posed to the former Professorship holders. They were as- ked to answer openly and honestly in order to help the Guest Professorship be as successful as possible for IMER and at the same time be a rewarding expe- rience for future Professorship holders. Their answers pertain to both scientifi c and practical aspects of the Profes- sorship. They shed light on the former Guest Professors’ experiences and com- municate their opinions on the modalities of the work. They also contain sug- gestions for potential organisational improvements. Ten Willy Brandt Guest Professors have contributed: RAINER BAUBÖCK, Research Director of the Institute for European Integration Research of the Austrian Academy of Sciences, GRETE BROCHMAN, Research Director at the Institute for Social Research in Oslo, SANDRO CATTACIN, Professor of Sociology at the University of Geneva, JOCK COLLINS, from the School of Finance and Economics, UTS, Sydney, DON DEVORETZ, Professor of Eco- nomics at Simon Fraser University in Burnaby, Canada, THOMAS FAIST, Fa- culty of Sociology, University of Bielefeld, KATHERINE FENNELLY, Profes- sor at Hubert H. Humphrey Institute of Public Affairs in Minneapolis, MARCO MARTINIELLO, Research Director at FNRS, University of Liege, NIKOS PAPASTERGIADIS, Associate Professor and Reader at The Australian Centre, University of Melbourne, and ELLIE VASTA, Senior Researcher and Pro- gramme Co-ordinator at the Centre on Migration, Policy and Society (COM- PAS) in Oxford. The majority of answers to each of the questions tend to express the same or similar attitude, and the general impression on reading the accumulated answers (which in the original form encompass 15 pages) is pervasively positive. Criti- cal aspects are directed towards the apartment at the Guest Professors’ disposal.

34 A few suggestions for changes/improvements in the working conditions at IMER have also been made - mainly with regard to the fact that visiting scho- lars are excluded from the regular research seminars at IMER as they are held in Swedish. The Guest Professors’ insights are provided in some detail in the following paragraphs, and are organised according to the specifi c topics being addres- sed. Six out of ten former Willy Brandt Guest Professors had never heard of the City of Malmö’s donation to IMER before receiving an invitation to hold the Professorship. (One of them, Rainer Bauböck, would obviously not have heard about it earlier as he was the very fi rst to hold the position.) Four of them, ho- wever, gave positive answers to the question: Had you heard about the Willy Brandt Guest Professorship before you were invited to take the position, and, if so, where did the information come from? However, the scholars holding the post during the past fi ve years have been talking about it to their colleagues, both nationally and internationally. In the case of the University of Minnesota, the Guest Professor-to-be heard about it from the Immigration History Re- search Centre at that university. Responses to the related question: Have you been “advertising” the Willy Brandt Guest Professorship among your colleagues internationally? If you have not done so, would you encourage them to take the position? were posi- tive. The fi rst Professorship holder Rainer Bauböck answered:

Yes, I did. I encouraged several colleagues to consider this and suggested some suitable can- didates to Björn Fryklund. I will continue to do so. I am still very grateful to have been invited to be the fi rst Willy Brandt Guest Professor and I will continue to advertise this guest profes- sorship.

Answers, to the question on working conditions and workload at IMER, quoted below, illustrate the stance taken by all the respondents. They were in general agreement as to the workload (one public lecture, three seminars for the IMER staff, and 2-3 lectures for the undergraduate students). The working conditions are regarded as being “excellent”, “perfect” and “ideal”.

The working conditions were excellent. The room and IT services were good as well as li- brary access and the support of the WB fellow. Workload was modest in terms of outreach and teaching. (De Voretz)

The work load was very reasonable, the working conditions excellent. (Brochman)

Very pleasant. I managed to write two new papers and I enjoyed teaching and meeting the IMER staff. (Bauböck)

It was a great chance to engage in research and writing. The workplace was perfect. The wor- kload was light and stimulating (lectures, research seminar, advising doctoral students). I would not want to miss the encounters which came out of the seminar contacts with collea- gues and students. (Faist)

35 The conditions were excellent. The offi ce was very comfortable, the technical support very effi cient, the secretarial support warm and effi cient, and my colleagues wonderful and gene- rous. (Papastergiadis)

My work conditions were ideal – I had everything I needed. The workload was also fi ne. (Vasta)

While most of the Guest Professors felt that having time for their own writing was the most important benefi t of the Willy Brandt post, some lacked the direct help from doctoral students or project assistants (e.g. in gathering statistical information) that they enjoy at their home departments:

It was hard to work without any direct assistance for short studies, documentary research etc. A 50% position for a young researcher would help to better do the work. (Cattacin)

Some were struck by the Swedish norm of everyone making their own photo- copies: at home they were used to having access to administrative staff for manual tasks like this. Typical answers to the question regarding the proportion of time spent on research/writing and the time consumed by other obligations at IMER were “80% research and 20% other”, or “about 60-70% research and 30% presenta- tion and preparation of meetings. Good proportion”. As the Guest Professors normally adapt and make use of lectures given to the undergraduates, extensive preparation time is unnecessary. The public lecture was something quite different, however, which meant that several Guest Pro- fessors presented work in progress. In general terms, some stated that they “had adequate time to conduct research and writing in addition to my IMER obliga- tions” (Fennelly), and that “the load for teaching was very small”, stressing that this “was also a very stimulating and rewarding part” of being at IMER.

I found the proportion of time between IMER and my research just right. I had the opportu- nity to get on with my work as well as contribute to the academic life at IMER. (Vasta)

Obligations to their home-institutions, mostly conducted via e-mail and in a few cases also by travelling back home, e.g. to hold oral exams, was only men- tioned in one of the responses (“about 55% research/writing, 30% other IMER obligations, 15% involvement in projects in my home institution”). As many of the visiting scholars cannot afford, and probably do not want to be in total iso- lation from their home institutions for a whole semester, it is likely that home- bound engagements not specifi ed in their answers are included in time set aside for their own ongoing projects and writing. Most Guest Professors also expressed satisfaction with their more or less formal contacts with the undergraduate and graduate students. “It was just about right”, as one of them stated. Another specifi ed that “contact with stu- dents was fi ne. More intense with those who asked me for advice on their MA

36 theses. The expectations and extent of involvement in supervising MA theses was not particularly clear and could have been stated more explicitly” (Bau- böck). One Guest Professor suggested that a seminar could be set up in advance for graduate students in order to gain more benefi t from the Willy Brandt scholars. Two others wished for more systematic contact with the students. In the case of two other Guest Professors, postgraduate reading seminars were organised, alt- hough this aspect of the Guest Professorship does depend on the possibilities of long-term planning, as well as on the graduate students’ particular interests and needs. The question Do you think that the Willy Brandt Guest Professor could be asked to give special courses (consisting of eight seminars) to groups of some ten C- and D-level undergraduates? provoked negative rather than positive answers in connection to statements mentioned above, namely, on the existing workload being well-balanced and in no need of change. The fi rst Guest Professorship holder gave the following response:

I suppose that depends on the overall teaching load. Given the generous salary it is not asking too much. I gave 7 seminars (which were, however, advertised as research seminars rather than as part of student courses) and 1 conference lecture in a period from October to January. So 8 seminars overall is reasonable. (Bauböck)

Two Willy Brandt Professors (both economists) were in favour of the idea of special courses for C- and D-level undergraduates, while others expressed he- sitation:

This would change the nature of the experience, as I was totally satisfi ed by the previous ar- rangement I see no need to change it. (Papastergiadis)

The professorship may not be so attractive if people have to teach – they may just want to get away from teaching for the duration of their time at IMER. (Vasta)

Alternative suggestions were proposed:

I think that it would be diffi cult for a guest professor to design a course in a way that met the needs of students whom he or she had never met. Instead, you could ask the guest professor to work with an IMER professor who has a pre-designed course, and to present a few lectures that fi t within the course. (Fennelly)

I would do it differently, i.e. open the internal workshop for the advanced students. (Cattacin)

A positive aspect of the Willy Brandt post is that it allows fl exibility and open- ness to the holder’s particular preferences. It is obvious in Part 2 of this report that the Willy Brandt activities are different in every semester, even though the main format is maintained. This latter suggestion therefore seems to be realis- tic, and while systematic undergraduate teaching will not become a regular part

37 of the Willy Brandt position, it may well be taken into consideration in our fu- ture planning. In one of the questions, the former Guest Professors were asked to suggest possible changes with regard to the Willy Brandt public lecture. While they all expressed their overall satisfaction with the lecture, two suggestions concerned “greater use of the Malmo and Copenhagen media to publicise the event” and fi nding ways of attracting a “larger and more diverse audience”. The suggestion made by Sandro Cattacin, the most recent Guest Professor whose stay is encompassed in this report, is worth stressing, since it potentially engages people working at Malmö City offi ces:

I would suggest to create a real event, in the inner city, in the evening, with a work of personal invitation, asking city representatives to comment the speech. (Cattacin)

It is concomitant with the very fi rst Willy Brandt Professor Rainer Bauböck who pointed out that “the public lecture should be advertised broadly, it should address a wider audience in the city beyond Malmö University”. He suggested organising “a panel of respondents to the lecture that will initiate a debate.” In 2000-2003, the Willy Brandt public lectures were advertised in the news- paper, Sydsvenskan. Direct information and an invitation was forwarded to Malmö City offi ces through Ms BRITTA STRÖM, responsible for the pro- grams on integration at the Malmö City Offi ce. In 2004-2005, the latter channel of information was retained, but the newspaper advertisement was replaced by 100 invitations being printed and mailed to people not offi cially connected with Malmö University. Some 50 invitations are sent out electronically to those wor- king at Malmö University, and all IMER students are also informed about it. In the fi rst instance, the mailing list includes the names of Malmö City represen- tatives and employees in different offi ces, but is adjusted with regard to the respective Guest Professor’s research profi le and the topic of the lecture. The Willy Brandt public lectures have been held at IMER and also at the premises of Fridhemsborg, both of which offer a very good environment for such events. However, the practice of organising the public lectures in the frames of regular working hours might be reconsidered in the hope of attracting a larger audience. The former Willy Brandt Professors’ suggestions about hol- ding the lecture in the evening, and inviting discussants from Malmö City seem worth considering, as it would attract more people and more media attention. The local and regional media are mainly interested in issues directly connected to Malmö; something that was confi rmed by the considerable interest shown in the public lecture given by Don DeVoretz and based on a comparison of im- migration-related economic issues in Malmö and Toronto. The answers to the question regarding the importance of the Research Fellow position in the connection to the Professorship included statements like “nice anchor and sparring partner”, “very welcoming and helpful”, “helpful, but may not be essential”.

38 Position should be continued. Productive also, for example, in planning / organising the work- shop. (Faist)

Without such a central person to guide you through the bureaucratic and social issues, it would be a much more daunting experience, her friendliness and intellectual generosity was a memo- rable part of my time in Malmö. (Papastergiadis)

As previously noted, some Guest Professors expressed their wish for a regular research assistant to engage in their current work (“it was very helpful for many things, but I needed a research assistant who works for me”). That kind of col- laboration has so far not being planned in the frames of the Willy Brandt Guest Professorship. The question Did research seminars at IMER give you any valuable feed- back? is a crucial one with regard to the intellectual aspects of the visiting sc- holarship. One response points to the fact that no-one at IMER shares the re- spective Guest Professor’s particular research focus, which meant that relevant input at the seminar was lacking; the focus instead being on explanation. Apart from that, all the statements are predominantly positive (even judged “fi rst class” by one respondent):

Yes, they were touch base settings, and gave an impression of where people were in their thinking. Nice atmosphere. (Brochman)

Yes, on a research proposal on democracy and migration control. (Faist)

Yes, I learned about immigration in Sweden and Malmö city integration policies. (Bauböck)

I enjoyed the research seminars that I presented very much and the others that I attended. There was lively discussion and questioning and the sense of a good intellectual culture within the academics at IMER. (Collins)

Those who used Malmö University’s library were very satisfi ed with its services:

The librarians were extremely helpful. I contacted them before arriving in Malmo and re- quested that they order several books. The books were awaiting me when I arrived. (Fennelly)

The staff were very kind, especially with language problems. (Papastergiadis)

Very good internet-support (journals). (Cattacin)

Two questions concerned the Guest Professors’ Willy Brandt Working Papers published on the Malmö University Electronic Press (MUEP) web-site. Some of the former Guest Professors used them in their regular undergraduate and graduate courses, but they are in the minority. The majority, however, did intro- duce them into their offi cial bibliographies. They all agreed that the Willy Brandt Guest Professors should be formally asked to acknowledge in their publications that some parts of their writings

39 have been done at IMER; some already did this or intend to do it in their forth- coming publications. Thomas Faist pointed out that “mentioning the stay at IMER in publications prepared during the guest professorship goes without saying.” Some of the answers to the question Did the Willy Brandt Professorship en- hance your contacts with anyone from IMER/Malmö University/other acade- mic institutions in Sweden? also deserve a mention, since they give an insight into the multiple positive consequences of the Willy Brandt post:

Yes, I am writing a book with Pieter Bevelander /IMER/ as an outgrowth of my visit. (DeVoretz)

Yes. There was a visit from people from IMER in Liège. Someone from Malmö is now regis- tered in our PhD programme and we are planning a joint conference Liège-Malmö. All this would not have happened without the professorship. (Martiniello)

Defi nitely. I have had contact with several of the staff members of IMER since. (Brochman)

Yes, ongoing contacts to persons like Carl-Ulrik Schierup /Norrköping/.(Faist)

Yes. I am currently writing a book chapter for a book on migration being edited by Bo Peters- son /Lund/. (Fennelly)

Yes, with Jonathan Friedman at Lund University. (Papastergiadis)

I made contacts in Malmö whom I occasionally meet at migration conferences. During my time in Sweden I also visited (and gave talks) in Norrköping and at CEIFO in Stockholm. I had known these colleagues before but my stay in Sweden certainly improved contacts. I made new contacts in Uppsala, where I also gave a talk. (Bauböck)

Yes. During my 5 months at IMER I visited a number of Swedish Universities: the National Institute for Working Life, Linköping University, Norrköping, to present a paper titled “Cos- mopolitan Capitalism: Ethnic Entrepreneurship in Australia”, the University of Umeå, where I presented a similar paper; and Stockholm University. I also gave a paper to the Malmö Uni- versity Sport Department on the Sydney Olympic Games. (Collins)

Some networks exist now, so I hope, with • Philip Muus /IMER/(IMISCOE-group, integration policies) • Carin Cuadra /IMER, Health and Society/ (IMISCOE-group, own research group) • Bengt Svenson /Health and Society/ (on drug policies) • Pieter Bevelander /IMER/ (on attitudes, prejudices, survey analysis - interpersonal net- work) • Probably, when I will continue this research line, with Björn Fryklund /IMER/ on Populism and RWE. I feel also that I can contact some other researchers when I have to construct international networks. (Cattacin)

Answers to the questions Did you advise any of your students to spend a semes- ter at IMER?, Did you suggest that any of IMER’s students might visit your department or attend a conference you were organising/participating in? were positive:

40 I have arrranged for several IMER grad students to attend Metropolis conferences. (DeVoretz)

Some students at my former home institution (Hochschule Bremen) went to IMER as ex- change students. (Faist)

Please tell us about any aspect of your stay at IMER that you found especially positive and especially negative. This question provoked rather elaborate answers, such as the following:

Negative aspects: As an English speaker, one thing I found frustrating was the language issue - I could not go to seminars that were held (even by colleagues) in Swedish. Most were held in Swedish. (Vasta)

Research interests must be co-ordinated with IMER staff to match the interests of WB profes- sor. In other words if an economist is invited for WB then an economist at IMER must be in residence. (DeVoretz)

Positive aspects: I found the fruitful discussion with IMER colleagues very positive. (Vasta)

I have no negative experience. Among all the positive ones, I would mention the very friendly and inclusive staff - both academic, but not least the administrative staff. They made me feel very welcome and made the stay both productive and socially enjoyable! (Brochman)

Very positive: friendliness, warmth of welcome from colleagues, effi ciency of administration and support staff; negative: stay is too short, one year would be better (I found out during my stay)! (Faist)

My interactions with the faculty and staff and students were the highlight of my stay in Malmo. (Fennelly)

The warmth of the welcome was most positive. I enjoyed the friendliness of Bjorn Fryklund, Gunilla Pfannenstill and the IMER Offi ce staff in particular. The IMER academics were easy going making it possible to establish good academic relationships from the beginning. The students were also interesting and interested. Since my partner accompanied me to Malmö for the whole time we used the opportunity to see a fair bit of Sweden from the tourist viewpoint, and to use it as a stepping stone to other parts of Europe for conferences, seminar papers and other academic activities. (Collins)

“+ time to think + time to read + time to write + time to laugh + some budget facilities to invite people + feeling of freedom (no stress, liberties)” (Cattacin)

The question Please tell us about any aspect of your stay in the town of Malmö as well as in the apartment that was at your disposal, also brought about some interesting answers:

Very practical with the ‘package fl at’. Good idea with the bike - and for me - the cajak! (Bro- chman)

41 Apartment was fi ne. Needed a few things but IMER staff helped with getting materials. (De- Voretz)

The apartment is really substandard, very functional, but a little bit depressive (sigh: I’m re- ally very complicated on this question). (Cattacin)

The apartment was adequate; the location was convenient. However, it was a bit isolating to be living in an apartment building where I didn’t know anyone. (Fennelly)

The fl at could be made more comfortable, I had repeated problems with noise levels from the neighbour upstairs, also one of the beds was very saggy and needed to be replaced. (Papaster- giadis)

Nothing negative. The city is very quiet, too quiet for me but that is a matter of taste. (Marti- niello)

The apartment was very convenient, the town interesting and quite vibrant. (Bauböck)

We loved the location, enjoyed the Guest Professor’s bike cycling to work through Malmö’s old centre. We enjoyed getting to know Malmö – the shops, restaurants, walks, cycle ways. We found the apartment itself to be quite good, though we had expected a double/queen bed and a better shower. (Collins)

Since Malmö is an immigrant city it provides both an intellectual and social backdrop for re- search. My public talk on Toronto and Malmö was one way to utilize Malmö as an intellec- tual tool. (DeVoretz)

Finally, only four former Willy Brandt Guest Professors could think of further suggestions for improvement of any aspect of the Professorship. One suggested “exposing the guest professor more strongly to ongoing research at IMER and integrating his or her seminars into the regular student curriculum”, while oth- ers stated that:

An (international) workshop should be part of each Guest Professor’s stay. I consider this much more important than teaching C- or D-level students - also from IMER’s viewpoint. (Faist)

I would have liked to have attended IMER faculty meetings in order to have felt more integra- ted into the department, but since they were all conducted in Swedish, this was not possible. Perhaps occasional meetings could be conducted in English in order to include the guest pro- fessor. Overall, my time at IMER was very enjoyable and worthwhile. (Fennelly)

I think one issue to think about is this – what do you really expect from the visitor? One mat- ter to consider is collaboration - that you invite people who can develop a project or write a paper with one/or more of the IMER staff. Some visitors may want to do this; others may come to catch up on reading. (Vasta)

While the international workshops and conferences have become a regular and much appreciated part of the Willy Brandt Guest Professorship, and also result in the publications mentioned in Part 3 of this report, the idea about IMER-re- searchers co-authoring papers with the Guest Professors seems to be worth

42 exploring. It is, however, reasonable to suggest that this could be more easily pursued on completion of the visit, when common interests are more easily defi ned. Doing it during the course of the Guest Professor’s stay at IMER would require a considerable number of previous contacts.

WILLY BRANDT RESEARCH FELLOW: INSIGHTS FROM WITHIN

MAJA POVRZANOVIĆ FRYKMAN

As noted in Part 1 containing basic information on the Guest Professorship in Memory of Willy Brandt at IMER, Malmö University, the Guest Professorship was established in order to create a constant exchange of knowledge and ideas and thus enhance IMER’s academic strength. To this end, the gift by the City of Malmö also includes a Research Fellow (forskarassistent) post. The candidates must have defended a dissertation within a fi ve year frame prior to the applica- tion in any academic discipline related to research in the fi eld of IMER. From October 2001 to October 2005, Maja Povrzanović Frykman has been employed as the fi rst Willy Brandt Research Fellow at IMER. She holds a PhD in Ethnology and was chosen from fourteen applicants; partly due to her re- search profi le and current research project and partly due to her international academic experiences. In the fi rst instance, her position was prolonged until December 31 2005 to take account of a teaching engagement at IMER not en- compassed by the Willy Brandt donation, and prolonged until March 2006 as a result of the need to have a Willy Brandt Professorship-related scholar in place during the new Guest Professor’s stay at IMER during the Spring semes- ter of 2006. The process of choosing and appointing the second Willy Brandt Research Fellow at IMER is about to be concluded in Spring 2006. Again, there are twelve applicants, which makes it clear that the position is considered attractive. According to the design of the position, twenty percent of the Willy Brandt Research Fellow’s work is devoted to organising and moderating the Guest Profes- sors’ participation in IMER’s education (including contacts with the students at all levels), the Guest Professors’ public lectures as well as their occasional meetings with City of Malmö representatives. All kinds of everyday help and exchanges that have arisen in the months of sharing a work place with the Guest Professors goes without saying; some of it being mentioned in Part 4 of this report.

44 Maja Povrzanović Frykman also acted as the editor of the Willy Brandt Series of Working Papers in International Migration and Ethnic Relations presented in Part 3 of this report. As a member of the editorial board, she also edited two issues of the new series Current Themes in IMER Research (ISSN 1652-4616) published by IMER. In June 2004, Maja Povrzanović Frykman’s application for the title of As- sociate Professor in the fi eld of International Migration and Ethnic Relations (docent i IMER) was accepted by the responsible board at Malmö University, and was forwarded for further assessment to two independent assessors. On 18 May 2005 she gave a public lecture “From War to Refuge: Ethnicity and Place” as a fi nal step towards her acquiring the title of Associate Professor, which was completed in June 2005. Her academic work accomplished in the frames of the Willy Brandt Research Fellow position is listed in the fi nal section, below. Some personal refl ections and insights of the position are presented in the following paragraphs.

INSIGHTS FROM WITHIN: SOME PERSONAL REFLECTIONS

As mentioned above, the number of applicants for the Willy Brandt Research Fellow position in both 2000 and 2005 confi rms its attractiveness. Indeed, the benefi ts of a non-teaching position are proved by the list of academic work I managed to accomplish in four years. With regard to the opportunity of devo- ting up to eighty percent of my working hours to research and writing, the po- sition enabled a signifi cant progress in my production that was confi rmed by the attainment of the docent-status in the fi eld of IMER. That, however, is not only a personal gain but also a professional gain for IMER as an institution, as well as for IMER as a fi eld of research in Sweden that would benefi t from pro- motion through internationally published results. A personal aspect should also be mentioned, concerning both Malmö as an immigrant town and the very orientation of IMER towards exploring the moda- lities and social consequences of difference primarily based on ethnic affi lia- tion. Through my PhD from the University of Zagreb and the subsequent inter- national merit and experience of working in the Zagreb Institute of Ethnology and Folklore Research for more than fi fteen years, I was a strong candidate for the Willy Brandt Research Fellow position. However, when I applied I had only been living and working in Sweden for four years. That, I suppose, made me an immigrant, albeit a privileged one when it comes to the possibility of unhinde- red continuation of an academic career fi rst established in another country. By employing me, IMER displayed an openness that while essential to scientifi c development in any fi eld may not be obvious in other academic contexts.

45 During the four years of my work at IMER, I met only friendliness and appre- ciation from the colleagues - academic as well as administrative staff - I both worked and socialised with. For my part, the material and social working con- ditions at IMER could not be better. Coming from an Eastern European country, I would also like to mention the “utopian” quality of the Malmö University Library. Since it is a library in the making, all the books that I either needed or was curious about were readily provided. The library staff, especially Mr OLA TENGSTAM who is respon- sible for the literature in the fi eld of IMER, were not only highly professional, but also reliable and ready to help in searching for and obtaining the publica- tions I needed. The part of my work that was particularly devoted to the Willy Brandt Guest Professors involved a variety of activities, all of which were highly rewarding. Together with other colleagues at IMER, I had ample opportunity to learn about the different disciplinary interests in migration-related topics from people who are among the most qualifi ed in their fi elds. Working closely with the Guest Professors, I made a number of professionally and personally valuable acqu- aintances, some of which may prove important in terms of my future interna- tional publications and teaching. The most important, however, was the colla- boration with those Guest Professors with whom I co-organised international workshops. As is apparent from Part 3 of this report, these workshops also provide a basis for books published in the frames of the Willy Brandt Profes- sorship – a lasting scientifi c result that promotes IMER internationally and at the same time promotes the careers of those involved in editorial tasks. In that the close contacts with the Guest Professors are one of main benefi ts of the Research Fellow position, the present design of the position makes the position holder relatively isolated from the overall teaching activities at IMER, and, indeed, from a lot of insider knowledge on many aspects of institutional dynamics. I would therefore suggest a modest, but nevertheless systematic, involvement of the Willy Brandt Research Fellow in teaching in accordance with the position holder’s disciplinary background and current interests. I be- lieve that such an adjustment would be easy to make if the editing and other work related to IMER’s publications (including those in the frames of the Wil- ly Brandt donation) are, according to the current plans, seen as a separate task. Another suggestion for change addresses the isolation felt by the Guest Pro- fessors and mentioned in Part 4 of this report. Holding regular research semi- nars at IMER in English would not present problems for the teachers and doc- toral students involved and would signifi cantly help the Guest Professors to stay informed and abreast of current professional concerns at IMER, to feel more integrated in IMER’s staff, and, last but not least, to interact in the re- search seminar context, provide valuable feedback and hopefully pose some diffi cult questions that might enhance our research.

THE GUEST PROFESSORS’ IMPORTANCE: FIVE YEAR’S DEVELOPMENT OF IMER-RESEARCH AT MALMÖ UNIVERSITY

BJÖRN FRYKLUND

As the person responsible for the Guest Professorship since its inception in autumn 2000, I would like to highlight the tremendous importance of the pre- sence of Guest Professors for the development of IMER-research at Malmö University. In conjunction with this I would also like to take the opportunity to comment briefl y on the Guest Professors’ responses to our questions about their stay with us. I intend to do that mainly by looking to the future in terms of what can be improved and developed further. In this context I am not referring to the more practical aspects, as such problems either can be or already have been dealt with in a more appropriate forum. In general it is fair to say that all the Guest Professors responded very positi- vely with regard to their activities and stay in Malmö. Their main criticism was that, to some degree, they felt themselves somewhat isolated from the more re- gular research seminar events in that these are usually held in Swedish. This can easily be remedied by ensuring that an increasing number of research seminars are conducted in English; something that shouldn’t be too diffi cult in view of the fact that the majority of teachers/researchers have a good working grasp of the English language in a scientifi c context. There can, however, be occasions when it is important to communicate in Swedish in order to clarify and develop ideas at a deeper scientifi c level. It is also apparent from the guest professors’ responses that information about the Guest Professorship in IMER at Malmö University can and should be im- proved at an international level. While knowledge about the Guest Professor-

52 ship has certainly spread like ripples on water and to the more well-known re- search networks within the migration and ethnicity fi eld, we still need to develop a more conscious and well-thought-through information and commu- nication strategy in order to make the Guest Professorship both better known and more attractive to international research pioneers. Their responses also revealed that when it comes to contacts with Malmö City representatives and inhabitants, they have an eager curiosity about the multicultural city of Malmö and how the management of ethnic diversity and questions of integration and segregation is practiced. In my view, the city and its representatives have responded very positively, actively sought information and given considerable time to discussing the city’s challenges and associated problems of ethnic diversity and integration with the Guest Professors. A num- ber of different study visits to local authority workplaces and committees have been made, and guided tours of the city have been directed towards particular IMER-focussed research questions. The Guest Professors’ public lectures – more recently held at Fridhemsborg – have been well attended by representati- ves/participants from the city’s different and relevant sectors. Contacts between the Guest Professors and the IMER staff have been consis- tently good. In their responses, they particularly mention how satisfi ed they were with the administrative personnel’s support and service. With regard to central contact with research staff, this has differed according to how the parti- cular research emphasis that each Guest Professor represents has been refl ected among the researchers in the fi eld. The same can be said about the relationship to the doctoral students, even though in many respects they have had and deve- loped joint meetings and discussions within the frame of general courses, semi- nars and supervision. The nature of the contact between the guest professors and researchers/research students should also be qualifi ed in the sense that in some cases (as least two) there are examples of the Guest Professor having stimulated interest and curiosity among researchers in the fi eld by introducing or initiating research perspectives/models that were either new or unfamiliar. Contact with undergraduate students at A and B levels (20 and 40 credits respectively) has mostly occurred through “educative” lectures, whereas at C and D levels (60 and 80 credits respectively) smaller seminars with an oppor- tunity for more direct communication and dialogue with the Guest Professors on migration and ethnicity issues have also been possible. On the whole, I feel that we have still to fi nd the optimum form for lectures and seminars with re- gard to students at different levels. This is something that needs to be thought through, tested further and developed, albeit in conjunction with not overlo- ading the Guest Professors with extra teaching engagements. When it comes to working relationships and the balance between teaching activities/other duties and their own research, the Guest Professors have ex- pressed their great appreciation. Working conditions have been regarded as

53 “excellent”, “perfect” and/or “ideal”. In other words, such repeated superlati- ves testify to these international professors’ satisfaction; something that is not often expressed by scholars at that level. The same also applies to the 80-20 or 70-30 time apportioned to own research and other undertakings during their time at Malmö University. Individual variations to these proportions probably refl ect the respective Guest Professors’ personal preferences, engagement and interest in different subject areas. In my view, it is of the utmost importance to continue to safeguard these highly regarded working conditions in order to attract the best researchers and professors to IMER and Malmö University. The simple fact of the matter is that a Guest Professorship in IMER at Malmö Uni- versity should be a highly attractive proposition. Ever since the inception of the Guest Professorship in 2000, a developed and developing network of international research contacts and research areas has resulted from the presence of Guest Professors in IMER from different geo- graphical locations during each spring and autumn term. It is apparent that the Guest Professors that have worked and researched in IMER at Malmö Univer- sity represent a considerable nation- and worldwide spread: Rainer Bauböck (Austria), Grete Brochmann (Norway), Jock Collins (Australia), Don DeVoretz (Canada), Thomas Faist (Germany), Katherine Fennelly (USA), Marco Marti- niello (Belgium), Nikos Papastergiadis (Australia), John Rex (United King- dom), Ellie Vasta (Australia, United Kingdom) and fi nally Sandro Cattacin (Switzerland). In 2006 the Willy Brandt Guest Professorship post holders will be Nina Glick Schiller (USA, Germany) and Ewa Morawska (USA). The fact that IMER at Malmö University is both included and active in inter- national networks and contexts – European as well as non-European – together with the added value of research exchange that our Guest Professors (in the form of research seminars, supervision, workshops and conferences) contribu- te, means that we have developed our research competence and its perspecti- ves, particularly in terms of internationally comparative studies, in our own Swedish setting as well as that of other Nordic countries. The gift from Malmö City in the form of the Guest Professorship, Assistant Professor and doctoral posts was intended to both strengthen and develop ex- cellent research in Migration and Ethnic Relations at the university. The fact that the city of Malmö wanted to contribute to an important research fi eld th- rough this gift gave strong impetus to the university. Investing in IMER in this was also a way of profi ling Malmö University and developing its strong scien- tifi c position and status. The results of IMER research work can thus contri- bute towards the solving of integration problems in Malmö, the region and the national as a whole. This donation was made in order to establish a special Guest Professor to the memory of Willy Brandt in IMER at Malmö University and be occupied by internationally distinguished and well-reputed scholars within the fi eld. The gift is fi nanced by the city of Malmö and has also attracted

54 sponsorship from MKB Fastighets AB, who provided an apartment for the use of the Guest Professors during their stay. The Guest Professors have created and continue to create a constant exchange of knowledge and ideas from the international research front in the fi eld, thereby strengthening IMER’s acade- mic prowess in a number of respects. The Guest Professors have contributed to the development of international contacts, as well as to the public debate on the challenges of diversity and inte- gration. Not only does the city of Malmö itself face such challenges, it also has much to learn from and comparisons to make with how similar multicultural cities have addressed their challenges and problems. The Guest Professors meet regularly with the doctoral students and offer them individual consultations, small group seminars and courses. They hold research seminars for IMER-researchers; these being included in the regular research seminar series. They also give public lectures to a wider audience from within the city of Malmö, including representatives and practitioners in- volved with migration and ethnicity issues. They have also demonstrated their interest in these areas, visited a number of organisations working practically with such issues and have held discussions and dialogues with representatives from these organisations. The lectures have been published in a special series entitled The Willy Brandt Series of Working Papers in International Migration and Ethnic Relations. Workshop and conference proceedings and results in connection with the Guest Professorship have been published as Willy Brandt Conference Proceedings. A systematic development of international partners through the Guest Pro- fessorship, networking, the increased collaboration and exchange of scholars and doctoral students and other guest researchers, not to mention the high qua- lity conferences, workshops and seminars, have all contributed to the develop- ment of conditions and qualities that are essential to a leading research environ- ment in the fi eld of migration and ethnicity. In January 2006, Malmö University submitted an application for Linneus Grant support to the Swedish Research Council (Vetenskapsrådet). This was Malmö University’s only, and prioritised, application. The strong research en- vironments referred to as Inclusion and Exclusion: Migration, Diversity and Welfare are summarised and described below, together with a short description of the university’s application for a Research School environment entitled In- ternational Migration and Ethnic Relations. Considering that as a research environment, IMER constitutes the nucleus of this Linneus application, and that the Guest Professorship is regarded as an important aspect of this, it is essential to present this environment in the context of this evaluation report. There is no doubt that Malmö University’s application would never have come to pass without strong infl uence from the international migration and ethnicity research that the presence of an international Guest Professor in Malmö has both refl ected and signifi ed.

55 In terms of the deed of gift and its expression of the intentions/expectations of the Guest Professorship, from a short-term perspective these can be said to have been fulfi lled. I would even make the assessment that it is important for the university to realise its prioritised objective of recruiting and employing a well-reputed international professor in the fi eld of International Migration and Ethnic Relations, who, together with the changing Guest Professors could con- stitute a national power centre for the fi eld’s international research; thus con- necting Malmö city and university in terms of best international practice and research. An interplay between internationally established professors in IMER, someone who is permanently employed by the university and one who changes every six or twelve months - both included in the international network and with many and well developed contacts - could conceivably lead to a qualita- tive advanced research produced within the frame of varying working groups, conferences and with international researchers as participants. It would also mean a signifi cant injection or stimulus to Malmö city’s social and economic development, with the university as the engine driving such a positive societal development.

THE STRONG RESEARCH ENVIRONMENT (LINNEUS GRANT APPLICATION) INCLUSION AND EXCLUSION: MIGRATION, DIVERSITY AND WELFARE

IMER-related issues form both the focus and continue the thread of the strong research environment referred to as Inclusion and Exclusion: Migration, Di- versity and Welfare within the frame of Migration and Ethnic Studies at Malmö University. In other words, in terms of societal change processes, emigrational movements and ethnic relations are central to the highlighting and explanation of the societal phenomena being studied. These phenomena are situated in dif- ferent spatial and time-related contexts and studied from a number of different perspectives and scientifi c disciplines. Research issues within the environment are both quantitative and qualitative in nature, with three main themes running through the environment as a whole. These themes include:

• populism, nationalism, xenophobia, democracy and citizenship

• diversity, the multicultural city, public spaces and places, organisations and societal transformation

• school, leisure, sport and health These three themes or areas constitute the nucleus of the research environment and overlap each other in different ways. In other words, there are no defi nite boundaries between them. The ambition is rather that these research questions are

56 highlighted from as many different perspectives as possible in an attempt to draw attention to the complex societal transformations being studied and analysed. The media and research attention given to IMER issues has both intensifi ed and deepened in connection with specifi c events during the initial years of the 21st century. Examples of this include the attack on the World Trade Center in September 2001, the riots in France during the autumn of 2005 and the violent reactions and events with regard to the Mohammed-cartoons in Denmark and the effect on the media. Although these specifi c events are limited in time and space, they neverthe- less take place in a global context and are an expression of movements and processes that stretch backwards as well as forwards in time. They also consti- tute a greater spatial dimension than the local or national arena where these events are played out. This naturally means that any positive future societal development must be grounded in a thorough and overall analysis of these events and the context in which they take place. Ultimately it is to do with issues of inclusion and exclu- sion, i.e. participation in social, political, economic and cultural contexts. How state and political collaboration is organised and how movements of people and capital are formed create the basis for inclusion and exclusion processes that are different and have different expressions depending on whether the subjects studied are nations, cities, schools or popular movements. The fi eld of IMER-related research questions is broad and multi-dimensio- nal in terms of theoretical perspective and empirical approach. The IMER-fo- cused research undertaken at Malmö University stretches from studies on eve- ryday practices within the professions (teaching, dentistry, nursing and social work) to theoretical and politico-philosophical studies on the concept of citi- zenship, forms of identity, and political phenomena coupled to populism, natio- nalism and xenophobia. The research environment Inclusion and Exclusion: Migration, Diversity and Welfare aims to bridge this spectrum in a fruitful way, where synergy ef- fects are developed, networks extended and where channels are created that facilitate and develop the spread of research and research results internatio- nally and beyond the traditional academic sphere. Our international front-line research spans several disciplines, which implies the stimulation and development of research in other related joint research envi- ronments. At a general level, this will encourage the formulation of new research ideas, stimulate the introduction and development of doctoral students and junior researchers, as well as strengthen and develop the connections between empiri- cal and theoretical studies. Further goals and visions for research carried out within the environmental frames are that the social benefi ts or relevance of the research are made more explicit, that new theoretical perspectives are developed and that the multi-disciplinary dimension of research is strengthened.

57 RESEARCH SCHOOL (DOCTORAL PROGRAMME GRANT) INTERNATIONAL MIGRATION AND ETHNIC RELATIONS

One of today’s most important social issues concerns inclusion or participation and exclusion. Who participates in and shapes societal development and who is left out? In recent decades the spotlight has been increasingly focused on is- sues, challenges and problems relating to migration to Europe and how the European states and the EU relate to that. Central to the social debate on migra- tion and the effects of migration of society and individuals are questions about human rights and democracy, suspicion of aliens, nationalism, discrimination and racism. In addition, the migration theme also includes the framing, empha- sis and division of welfare and the welfare state among a population character- ised by an increased ethnic diversity. Within the research area of International Migration and Ethnic Relations, these issues have been of interest to researchers for a considerable length of time. In Malmö University’s application for grant support for a strong research environment within the frame of migration and ethnic studies, these very im- portant questions were also presented as the research environment’s main em- phasis and referred to as Inclusion and Exclusion: Migration, Diversity and Welfare. The Research School International Migration and Ethnic Relations (IMER) is an initiative that, from the point of view of content, is sustained by a multi- and cross-disciplinary context in which a substantial part of the re- search is centred in the migration and ethnic profi le already highlighted in this report. In that the Research School’s profi le is strongly characterised by the mainstream of this research environment, it is also closely connected to social problems that can be regarded as key issues in terms of a positive European societal development. Research School IMER represents an investment in postgraduate studies with a doctoral degree examination within the ethnic and migration fi eld. The Research School is based on collaboration between the Department of Ethni- city at Linköping University and the educational and research area of IMER at Malmö University. The idea behind such collaboration is to combine two strong research environments and thus develop an international and competitive envi- ronment in the joint task of administering postgraduate studies within the IMER-fi eld. The collaboration also includes developing postgraduate studies that are coupled to the research environment as a whole. In this respect, the Research School aims towards a long-term reinforcement of these environme- nts. By establishing postgraduate studies in such a socially relevant and scien- tifi cally prominent environment, we imagine that IMER as a fi eld of knowledge

58 will be strengthened and that IMER issues will and can be aired in sectors out- side the academic walls of the university. Researchers with specifi c skills and competences in investigating issues re- lating to Inclusion and Exclusion: Migration, Diversity and Welfare will be trained and educated at the Research School. Specialisation is envisaged within the fi elds of populism, nationalism, suspicion of aliens, democracy and citizen- ship; ethnic diversity, multicultural cities, space, places, organisations and so- cial change; school, leisure, sport and health. In the long-term, the arts and sciences as a whole will benefi t if researchers of the future gain a better under- standing of the processes deriving from IMER issues. This in turn creates post- graduate studies that stimulate knowledge about societal relations and their implications beyond the confi nes of academia.

WILLY BRANDT GUEST PROFESSORS’ APPOINTMENT PROCEDURE

The matter in question is under the care of the academic committee appointed by the IMER Board that since 2005 has consisted of

• GRETE BROCHMANN, Professor in Sociology, Director of Research at the Institute of Social Research, Oslo University

• RUNE JOHANSSON, Professor in Ethnicity at Linköping University, Head of the Department of Ethnicity at the Norrköping Campus

• ALEKSANDRA ÅLUND, Professor in Ethnicity, Linköping University

• BJÖRN FRYKLUND, Professor in IMER, Malmö University, Chairman of the Working Group.

The process is such that the working group normally meets once every six months and discusses the different short-term and long-term aspects of the Guest Professorship. This includes suggesting a number of possible candidates and looking several years ahead, particularly as one of the potential candidates may not be in a position to take up the offer or has to decline at short notice. The particular emphasis of the suggested Guest Professor also needs to be considered. Ideally this should vary, so that several disciplines within the IMER research fi elds can be broadened and developed. Gender, different backgrounds, age, geographical representation, and above all the depth and quality of scho- larly production and whether the person in question will fi t into the research environment and profi les of IMER, or alternatively can be expected to initiate and contribute new concerns and relevant research, all need to be taken into consideration. It is also important that the person in question is in agreement with the conditions, prerequisites and demands associated with the Guest Pro- fessorship as stipulated in the legal deed of gift. After the Working Group has met, the process then involves the Chairman of the Working Group, together and in collaboration with the Departmental Pre- fect at IMER, putting forward the names of suggested post holders to the Vice- Chancellor in the light of the above discussions and criteria.

A DISSERTATION ON ANTIRACISM

JENNY MALMSTEN

Jenny Malmsten has held the Doctoral Student post linked to the Willy Brandt Guest Professorship since 2001. Although enrolled as doctoral student at the University of Linköping, Campus Norrköping (Tema etnicitet), Jenny Malmsten’s workplace and institutional affi liation, as well as the affi liation of both her main supervisor, Björn Fryklund, and her second supervisor, Berit Wigerlfelt, are at IMER, Malmö University. In the frame of her position, Jenny Malmsten has been teaching at undergra- duate levels and taking care of practical issues concerning the Willy Brandt Guest Professors’ arrival and stay in Malmö. Most of her attention has natu- rally been devoted to her dissertation, preliminarily entitled “Antiracism in Movement”; a study of antiracist strategies and conditions in Sweden. Antira- cism is explored as a social phenomenon from three different theoretical per- spectives, with two empirical studies as the point of departure. The fi rst theoretical perspective focuses on the problems that antiracism tries to overcome, i.e. racism, xenophobia, homophobia and discrimination. Antira- cism itself forms the second angle, particularly in terms of what “anti” racism means and the relationship between racism and antiracism. Finally, the third perspective is related to antiracism as a social phenomenon and explores new social movements and the organisational arena in which antiracism is played out. From these perspectives, the intention is to analyse antiracism and illus- trate the antiracist actors’ reality and the kind of questions they are interested in. This is done in relation to two empirical studies: a project called Antiracist Film Days (Antirasistiska fi lmdagar) and a governmental venture known as Arm in Arm (Arm i arm) to which different antiracist actors can apply for funds to fi nance their activities.

GLOBALISATION IN THE LOCAL COMMUNITY

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE AT IMER, MALMÖ UNIVERSITY, NOVEMBER 27–29, 2000

Some one hundred and sixty researchers, teachers and other concerned parties connected with issues relating to migration and diversity participated in this three-day conference. Coming from different parts of Sweden, as well as from other Nordic countries, the delegates were able to attend fi ve keynote and ple- nary lectures and participate in six discussion- and six working groups. The following key note speeches were delivered at the conference:

• An opening address by TOMAS HAMMAR, Professor Emeritus at IMER

• An opening address by KENT ANDERSSON, City Councillor, City of Malmö

• A plenary lecture “Ethnic Inequality and Institutional Diversity in Higher Education” by YOSSI SHAVIT, Department of Sociology and Anthropology, Tel Aviv University, Israel

• A plenary lecture “Public Culture in Societies of Immigration” by RAINER BAUBÖCK, Willy Brandt Guest Professor at IMER, Malmö University

• A plenary lecture “At Home in the World: Cosmopolitanism and the Global Landscape of News” by ULF HANNERZ, Department of Cultural Anthro- pology, Stockholm University

• A plenary lecture “Global/Local Processes and the Islamisation of Urban Space” by JOHN EADE, School of Sociology and Social Policy, University of Surrey, Roehampton, Great Britain

A variety of discussion groups with the overall theme “Diversity in Higher Education” were arranged during the conference as follows:

• Recognising and Bridging Differences in Supervisory Discussions

• Diversity versus Cosmopolitanism in Higher Education

• Internationalisation: East, West, Home is Best

• Combining Quality Guarantees and Increased Diversity

• Grading Diversity: Non-Swedish Programmes in the Swedish Labour Market

• Higher Education’s Contribution to Societal Diversity

65 With the overall theme of “Globalisation in the Local Community”, the follo- wing working groups/panels were also arranged during the conference:

• New Labour Market Patterns

• Democracy Between Globalisation and the Local Community

• The Media and Cultural Diversity

• Citizenship and Human Rights

• Organisation of Welfare, Education and Care

• Religions and Philosophies

In connection with the inauguration of the Willy Brandt Guest Professorship, Malmö City invited conference participants to an offi cial buffet reception at Malmö Town Hall. Several delegates attended this reception. The following evening, IMER organised a reception with buffet and dance. In view of the intensive work that took place during the conference, the con- tacts made and the feedback registered by IMER after the conference, the pro- ceedings can be regarded as having been very successful.

TRANSNATIONAL SPACES: DISCIPLINARY PERSPECTIVES

INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP AT IMER, MALMÖ UNIVERSITY, JUNE 10-11, 2003

The workshop is organised in the frames of Guest Professorship in memory of Willy Brandt at IMER, Malmö University, this term held by Prof. Thomas Fa- ist, well known for his work on transnational social spaces. Scholars of different disciplinary and of different national backgrounds are gathered, who are interested in transnational connections and imply transnatio- nal perspectives in their research. The starting idea was to invite only people for whom some aspects of transnationalism (understood mainly as immigrants’ transnational social spaces) are the very fi eld of research. A hopefully more challenging approach - suggested by Prof. Faist and defi ning the present format of the workshop - was to engage also people who deal with other kinds of trans- national spaces (not necessarily social). Also, some colleagues who do not do research in this fi eld, were invited to act as commentators. The papers focus on epistemological and methodological questions, using concrete research projects as a base of departure. They have been guided by the following questions from the letter of invitation: What is the state of art concerning transnational spaces within your discipli- ne in general? How does this term/concept tie in the conceptual universe of your discipline? How has it been used (drawbacks and benefi ts; confusions provoked and new paradigms enabled)? If you use the term at all, what do you talk about when talking about transnational spaces? How do you defi ne the term? What are the competing terms/concepts? How does it relate to the research in the humanities and social sciences (esp. to the research in your discipline) in your national context of fi nancing research, setting priorities and defi ning pre- stigious/up-to-date research? What are the appropriate methods of research into transnational spaces from your disciplinary point of view?

67 Present your own current/planned research project focusing on the value added from a transnational perspective to the understanding of the concrete pheno- mena/groups/practices you study. What are the specifi c methods you use in your research?

ERICA CARLSTRÖM, Ph.D. candidate in Social Work (Lund University) Position and affi liation: Ph.D. candidate at School of Social Work, Lund University Mailing address and E-mail: P.O. Box 23, S - 221 00 Lund, Sweden [email protected] Current project: The aim of my dissertation project is to contribute to the understanding of transnational iden- tities and activities among Bosnian people with a connection to Sweden. My understanding of transnationalism has its standpoint in a specifi c theoretical framework, namely as developed by Thomas Faist (2000). This implies that I for my understanding of transnationalism, at an analytical meso level, aim at weaving together the micro and macro level, to clarify the pat- terns of transnational social spaces. Out of two research questions, one relates to a descriptive analysis of transnationalism in the Bosnian Swedish context, and how the concept of transnational social spaces can contri- bute to the understanding of this. The other relates to the meaning of transnationalism in peoples’ lifes: what meaning does transnationalism have in peoples’ everyday life. I am right now in the process of collecting data. I am planning to interview people residing in both Bosnia and Sweden.

Planned project: ”Transnational social spaces Turkey-Denmark: Consumption and network among Tyrkis fam- ilies in Denmark” The purpose of the project is to investigate the connections between Turkey and Denmark as the consequence of activities among the population with Turkish background in Denmark. By mapping consumption patterns and the connected social networks among a number of fa- milies of Turkish background in a Copenhagen housing area, the object is to determine the volume, character and signifi cance of these relations for their everyday life in Denmark. An- thropological fi eldwork will include participant observation in Copenhagen and in Turkey, interviews and informal conversations.

Bearing in mind that the Iraqi migrants in Turkey constitute a het- erogeneous entity in terms of their members’ ethnic and religious backgrounds, I intend to fi nd out their internal variations along with their particular engagement in local and transnational social networks.

Current project: “’Is home where the heart is or where I hang my hat?’. Belonging and processes of identifi ca- tion among Bosnian refugee families in Denmark” The present project is concerned with a group of 18 Bosnian (Muslim) families who arrived as refugees in 1993, and who were all part of the fi eldwork investigations for my masters thesis, conducted in 1994. The focus is on the changing contexts, perceptions and practices of everyday life of these families, which have taken place since I did my fi eldwork in two “refu- gee villages” under the policy of Temporary Leave to Remain, eight years ago. The main to- pics were then, as well as now, especially related to the themes of belonging, processes of identifi cation and being/feeling-at-home. At present I have more or less fi nished my fi eldwork period, which took place in several locations in Denmark and included a shorter visit to vari- ous locations in B-H. Questions about transnationalism have entered the project, as the preva-

73 lence of, especially, homeland ties and homeland visit experiences, have proven to be of considerable importance in framing the processes of identifi cation and notions of belonging and relatedness in these families.

Current project relevant for the workshop: “Transnational practices and belonging. An analysis of mobility, diasporic identifi cation and transnationalism among Somalis in Denmark” (preliminary title)

74 This PhD project is in continuation of my master thesis focusing on transnational practices, belonging and repatriation among Somalis in Denmark. The study will examine a) the dynamics between the status and standing of Somalis in Denmark and their engagement in transnational practices and a possible diasporic consciousness, and b) how the possible engagement in transnational practices relate to social and physical mobility. The study will pay special attention to questions of gender, generation and racialization processes. I am about to start my fi eldwork and am currently working on some methodologi- cal and theoretical considerations. The data will consist of interviews, participant observation and various documents. The project is affi liated to the research programme “Diaspora, Development and Confl ict” (2002-2005), anchored at the Institute of International Studies (former Centre for Development Research), co-ordinated by senior researchers Ninna Nyberg Sørensen and Nicholas van Hear.

Current project: “The origins, internal dynamics and effects of Latin American migration to Europe” This research project (2002-05) traces the development and studies the consequences of transnational fi elds of action generated by Latin American migration to Europe. The project compares transnational practices undertaken by Colombians and Dominicans in four Euro- pean countries (Denmark, the United Kingdom, Italy, and Spain) and in their respective coun- tries of origin, and explores the origins, internal dynamics, and effects of transnational prac- tices among the two groups. A central aim is to understand under what contextual and migratory circumstances migrants’ ability to transfer fi nancial and other resources is likely to produce respectively positive or negative effects on the countries of origin. Theoretical con- cerns are built organically into methods and analysis, e.g. by examining migration as a social process embedded in multiple social structures, such as the migrant household, the local col- lectivities, the nation-states involved, and the multiple locations and temporal phases of mi- gration systems. Questions of gender (particularly gender selective movement), class posi- tioning, and citizenship provide a link between the different forms and implications of identifi cation(s), organization(s), and participation(s) that the study seeks discern. As such, the project is linked to theoretical discourses on state policies, legitimating discourses, and insti- tutional practices, as well as to transnationalism and globalization. Research is carried out in collaboration with Luis Guarnizo, UC Davis.

Current and planned projects: I am working with several minor projects on ethnicity and cultural diversity. Two “branches” in my research basket might be of interest: (1) studies on Chilean migrants in diaspora and their return; (2) the construction of return-migration from diasporic as well as nation-state point of view. The study of Chilean diaspora (1) has come to a point when it’s perhaps time to conclude, so I might be somewhat tired talking about them. In “pipe-line” is right now a fascination for return and re-return etc. (2). A possible thread comes out of a study of how the Swedish migration board plans and encourages the return of, e.g., Bosnians and Somalis and how these groups act and respond on this. A report is published and next step is to discuss the more theoretical im- plications of this in relation to transnationalism and globalisation.

Current and planned projects: “Seeds of War: Narrative Construction of Identities in Diaspora and Exile” I am currently writing a book based on this HSFR-fi nanced project. Fieldwork among Cro- atian labour and refugee immigrants in Sweden showed that their identifi cations imply cul- tural and political concerns as well as social contacts reaching beyond Sweden as the frame of social, political and cultural integration. Therefore, along with the focus on narratives on war- related experiences, a considerable part of my book is devoted to the transnational contexts of identity constructions within old and new immigrant groups of same ethnic affi liation. “Connecting Places, Enduring the Distance” (preliminary title) In 2004-2005, I intend to engage in an ethnography-based project focusing on transnational travel practices of labour and refugee immigrants to Sweden.

Its theoretical premises might be developed into a basis of a future research project, or, connected to the one mentioned above. The topic con- cerns values, emotions, and practices connected to objects coming from elsewhere, aiming to analyse distancing and connecting by the means of objects in diasporic contexts (including the practices of temporary migrants and exiles). The interest for objects from elsewhere could add to the understanding of the complexity of relationships and connections that are hidden by the naturalised nominal categories of social/cultural space.

It will explore determinants, forms and impacts of the transnational practices of the Nicaraguan diaspora, dispersed over several locations, primarily Costa Rica and secondarily the USA/Miami. It will analyze these practices and their contextual circumstances, following spatial (short/long distance connections) and temporal (historical dynamics) lines. What has become known as the ‘migration-development nexus’ constitutes a point of de- parture for this study. The hitherto very separated policy fi elds of migration, fl ight, aid and development have been recognized as directly counterproductive in terms of reaching durable outcomes. Additionally, the overlooking of migrants’/refugees’ eventual potentials as part- ners in development seem to point in the same direction. The methodological approach will mainly be qualitative data collection through interviews,

78 participant observation and documents from different actors involved in the transnational fi eld of action. Questions of gender, social class and political engagement will be central guiding analytical tools regarding the migrant group. The project is affi liated to the research pro- gramme “Diaspora, Development and Confl ict” at the Institute for International Studies (IIS), Copenhagen, led by Ninna Nyberg Sørensen and Nick Van Hear. It is running for three years (start: 2002).

This interest has recently been expanded into an interest in self-employment as a form of social inclusion (or marginalisation) and the role of transnational social spaces in the establishment of businesses, focusing on Turkish businesses in Finland as an example. Publications relevant for the workshop: - Kurdish Diasporas: A Comparative Study of Kurdish Refugee Communities. London: Mac- millan, 1999. - “The Concept of Diaspora as an Analytical Tool in the Study of Refugee Communities”. Journal of Ethnic and Migration Studies 28(2), 2002: 221-238. Current project: My current research project is based on interviews with Turkish entrepreneurs (including Kurds) in Finland. The preliminary results indicate that transnational social and economic networks, to some extent, enable the establishment of businesses. This is the case with kebab fast food businesses, which is the most common business sector among Turkish entrepreneurs in Finland. However, the Turkish entrepreneurs have seldom been able to expand their busi- nesses into the mainstream economy. It is also clear that the structure of the Finnish labour market forces many immigrants into self-employment, since there are no other jobs available. Thus, also non-Turkish immigrant groups have increasingly started to establish kebab shops and the competition has increased. Furthermore, there is reason to critically examine the taken for granted role of ethnicity among Turkish immigrant entrepreneurs and their small businesses in Finland. The prelimi- nary results indicate that the social networks of the entrepreneurs often cross traditional ethnic boundaries, for example within the framework of marriages between Turkish men and Finnish women. (Because of the migration history of the Turks in Finland, this type of intermarriages is very common.) Instead of ethnicity, the important social relations related to the businesses of the Turkish entrepreneurs are based on mutual trust and reciprocity, which can be sustained both within and over traditional ethnic boundaries. To sum up, the results indicate that a study of the role of transnational social and economic networks always need to take into account the local setting and its structural constraints.

IMMIGRANT ASCENSION TO CITIZENSHIP: RECENT POLICIES AND ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL CONSEQUENCES

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE AT IMER, MALMÖ UNIVERSITY, FRIDHEMSBORG, FRIDHEMSVÄGEN 2, MALMÖ, JUNE 7, 2004

The attainment of citizenship in the host country was traditionally viewed as the fi nal affi rmation of integration by an erstwhile immigrant. The complex criteria to achieve this status vary by country and over time. Language, length of domicile, knowledge of institutions, culture and laws as well as good beha- viour in the host country are near universal criteria for the ascension to citizen- ship. Achieving citizenship yields economic, political, and social rewards. The particular mixture of criteria and outcomes vary by the fundamental nature of the individual state awarding this status. Nevertheless, a host of common ques- tions emerge in the 21st century about the nature of immigrant ascension to ci- tizenship. Do dual or multiple citizenship policies in the host country facilitate the ascension process? What is the optimal waiting period before ascension to citizenship and should it vary by individuals? Does citizenship hasten integra- tion or retard integration by encouraging return or onward migration? Is there a confl ict between the maintenance of national citizenship policies and the ac- hievement of free mobility in economic or political unions such as NAFTA or the EU? Is there an agreeable set of minimum or maximum standards for im- migrant ascension to citizenship within these unions or world-wide? These questions and others form the motivation for this conference. The primary purpose of this conference is to identify established and newly emerging scholars conducting citizenship research who will report on their past completed work across a variety of disciplines. In addition, the fi nal panel ses- sion will attempt to identify both a policy- and curiosity-driven research agen- da, and to comment on the methods and data available in individual countries to address emerging research themes.

MIGRATION AND HEALTH

THREE WORKSHOPS AT IMER, MALMÖ UNIVERSITY, OCTOBER – DECEMBER 2005

Organisers: Sandro Cattacin, Willy Brandt Guest Professor, Malmö University Carin Björngren Cuadra, Dr od sci, IMER/Health and Society, Malmö University

BARRIERS TO HEALTH CARE ACCESS Friday, October 21th, 13:15-16:00 Malmö, Gibraltargatan 2 (IMER - house ”Flundran”), room 1-106

Barriers to accessing the health system produce important health inequalities today. Especially in urban regions segregation and exclusion have become an important phenomenon. Current health policies in European cities have devel- oped responses to remove such barriers, in order to ensure health coverage for citizens within the modern welfare state. These strategies are at the centre of the workshop.

SANDRO CATTACIN, currently the Willy Brandt Guest Professor at IMER, is professor in meso-sociology, specialized in social and health policies at the sociological department of the University of Geneva. He has done research in public health and marginalization, and his working areas involve urban policies, minorities as well as mesosociology (his CV and publications are available at www.unige.ch/ses/socio/sandro.cattacin). He will give the introductory speech and moderate the workshop.

87 ISABELLE RENSCHLER, PhD in territorial planning at the Swiss Technical College (EPFL) and political scientist at Geneva University, will present a study on six European cities. The organizational structures of Munich (G), Marseille (F), Bradford (GB), Reggio (I), Geneva (CH) and Malmö (S) are put in comparative perspective, as well as the approaches to increase public health access in those towns (for more information see www.unige.ch/ses/socio/isa- belle.renschler).

FARHAD ALI KHAN, PhD, Division of Social Medicine and Global Health, Lund University, will present his study Health care utilisation and unmet health care needs among migrants in Southern Sweden, co-authored with Maria Ros- vall, Mathias Nilsson and Per-Olof Östergren.

MIGRANT FRIENDLY HOSPITALS – THE AMSTERDAM DECLARATION Thursday, December 1th, 13.15-16.00 Malmö, Gibraltargatan 2 (IMER- house “Flundran”) room 1-117

The European project “Migrant-friendly hospitals” has brought together more then 20 hospitals from several European countries and tried to develop an agenda on good practices in the relation between migrants and hospitals, in the confrontation between research and concrete experiences coming out of prac- tice. The result of this process was the formulation of the “Amsterdam Declara- tion - Towards Migrant Friendly Hospitals in an Ethno-culturally Diverse Eu- rope” (see www.mfh-eu.net). The workshop aims to discuss the process and its main results.

88 SANDRO CATTACIN, currently the Willy Brandt Guest Professor at IMER, will give the introductory speech and moderate the workshop.
