About this event
Seteney Shami, Arab Council for the Social Sciences (ACSS)
The article "Transnationalism and Refugee Studies: Rethinking Forced Migration and Identity in the Middle East" (Shami, 1996) has profoundly shaped the field of Refugee Studies ever since it appeared in the Journal of Refugee Studies (link to the article). Seteney Shami offers her reflections on the article and on the field as a whole, 20 years after its publication.
Seteney Shami is the Program Director of the Middle East North Africa and the InterAsia Program, at the Arab Council for the Social Sciences.
The events are free and open to the public. Registration is not required.
