Today is #WindrushDay
22nd June marks the anniversary of the arrival of HMT Empire Windrush in 1948.
Here is a link to an article by @mcslaven about how the individualisation of UK #Immigration control is key to understanding the Windrush Scandal...

Super-excited about our @seeingimmigrant book launch for 'States of Ignorance' with @CettaMainwaring, Enda Delaney & Abdellali Hajjat. 29 Jan, 17:00-19:00 in Meadows Lecture Theatre, U of Edinburgh. Come if you can! Details: ed.ac.uk/history-classics-ar…

In this case, it gives me no joy to emphasise topicality, but our book has loads of insights into the long histories that led to today's Supreme Court ruling on #Rwanda, especially in the chapters by @mcslaven.
There are few joys quite so pure as the one felt when taking delivery of a new book, especially one filled with brilliant insights from the @seeingimmigrant team. I hope some of you (especially historians!) will read it, if you can.

Finally, I get to post the compulsory ‘our new book just arrived’ tweet…. Genuinely over the moon about this, the product of multi-year collaboration with @emile_chabal, @mcslaven, Sara Casella, Elisabeth Badenhoop @seeingimmigrant @ESRC ❤️🙏

Asylum applications run like a parlour game. This kind of policy can only come from people privileged enough to see everything as a game and ignorant enough to have never read a single study about the intricacies of providing evidence in an asylum case.

I'm inordinately proud of this book, which took a lot of hard work. It's properly interdisciplinary, properly empirical, properly theoretical, and properly historical. Great chapters from the project team and so many insights throughout. (Plus the endorsements are so lovely!)

Emily Carver - We actually don't know if students return home.
Let's go to someone who knows what they're talking about
Madeleine Sumption(Migration Observatory, Oxford) - People do return home after their visas expire.

I've just restarted my blog after a 5 year hiatus. I'll be posting on higher education research and innovation, including research leadership & culture, impact & innovation, research funding & assessment - mainly articles and blogs I've written for other outlets.

🧵📢 I am so excited to present this new publication!
One year after the war, I discuss the role of @Frontex in #Ukrainian displacement. The most exciting part about writing this chapter was being able to write these words about Frontex:

Last year, the lovely people at French History/@FrenchHistoryUK agreed to commission an article on the 2022 French electoral cycle. The result: this set of 3 essays, co-written by me, Michael C. Behrent & the amazing journalist @MarionVanR. doi.org/10.1093/fh/crac070

Fresh off the (virtual) press, my first published article in Millennium! Take a look if you're interested in the politics of (in)visibility in migration and want to know more about how we can approach this question as an issue of knowledge production!

I am immensely proud of having been involved with this project from the start. It embodied true (rather than performative) interdisciplinarity and genuine collegiality. The result is here. Spolier: I've read every page of this manuscript, and it's great. Watch this space!

If you are ever in London until 16 April, don't miss the Music, Migration & Mobility exhibition at the @RCMMuseum in collaboration with @RHGeoHumanities and @PLUS_1622. Our MoHu member Giada Peterle was part of the team and her comic artworks are there too!
