Our Research
Our research connects Global South and diasporic perspectives to examine how power, place, and belonging are made and remade across borders. We use historical, ethnographic, and archival approaches to study migration and mobility as lived experience shaped by empire, race, labor, policy, and everyday practices of care and resistance.
Global South Studies
We explore histories and theories emerging from the Global South: centering decolonial critique, uneven development, and locally grounded knowledge-making across regions and languages.
Diasporic Studies
We study diaspora as lived experience and political formation, tracing belonging, identity, culture, and community across borders, generations, and transnational networks.
Migration and Human Mobility
We examine how people move and are move, through labor, refuge, policy, and crisis, focusing on borders, citizenship, displacement, and everyday strategies of survival.
