Symposium: 23 - 24 June - 2021 - online

Making Home, Doing Belonging: Mobilities and Immobilities in Experience, Theory and Policy

The observation that ‘[b]elonging like home entails personally significant and emotional connections between people and places’ (Kusenbach & Paulsen 2013, p. 6) continues to take on novel forms and high political and existential stakes. Irreducible to having a roof over one’s head or identity/ citizenship, ‘home’ and ‘belonging’ have, in theory, been de-coupled from notions of naturalised origin or essentialised being.
