This course uses an anthropological framework to gain a more nuanced understanding of the complexities of global migration and human movement. It will examine the theoretical underpinnings of an anthropological perspective on migration and movement, and will explore a variety of ethnographic case studies to explore the significant political, economic, environmental, legal, and social issues that influence global migration.
