Weaving narratives: Autoethnographic migration research in the making

    Activity: Participating in or Organising an EventParticipation in or Organisation of Workshop, Roundtable, Seminar, Course

    Description

    What does it mean when the researcher includes herself and her personal experiences in academic work? Are there limitations on what researchers can and should disclose? What are the freedoms, dilemmas and constraints when weaving one’s story into the analysis, and in what ways does it affect theorizing and genre?

    At this seminar on autoethnography in migration research, we discuss these and other questions. Four stellar researchers reflect upon their use of different approaches to weave in their personal narratives when analysing migration and the struggle over mobility in today's stratified world.
