Work Programme until October 2008

Cluster C8 will organise its work under three specific themes of research collaboration and integration. The second generation will organise a workshop on theoretical debates in second-generation research. There will probably be four main presentations by key speakers on the US-Europe theoretical debate: Alejandro Portes, John Mollenkopf, Hans Vermeulen, and Maurice Crul/Jens Schneider. Gender and the labour market will organise a small conference to produce a set of papers on this theme. Love, Sexuality and Migration will convene a small conference, with invited papers (selected following a call for papers), on this theme in the first half of 2008 to result in a special issue of a journal.
