Online Subjectivities in Transnational Migration

Project essentials

Participant information page

This page outlines all the information project participants need to know.

The project examines multiple levels of interaction between migratory trajectories and online media use. The focus here is on migrant subjectivities, that is, personal traits, opinions, and images that, while displayed online, can reveal the migrant’s relationship with their communities.

Context

This project seeks to find patterns of convergence between micro narratives of migration found on the Internet and broader regulatory movements that may affect their experience and welfare.
