“Ethnoracial Inequality in Egalitarian Sweden: Swedish Exceptionalism and Racial Legacies”

Beiyi Hu, CUNY Graduate Center

The GC Immigration Working Group is a graduate student-run group where we exchange, discuss, and collaborate on ideas and research related to immigration. We are now soliciting papers to be presented during our workshop. The purpose of our workshop is to bring together current students, alumni, and professors (especially junior faculty) to present and discuss their works in progress. The topics of the presentations should focus on immigration; however, the papers can cover other areas, such as race, ethnicity, urban sociology, social movements, and public health. There are two presenters for each workshop. Presenters will send their draft to the discussant and/or group at least a week before the workshop. It is up to the presenter’s discretion to choose to share their work with the entire group, upon requests, or only with the discussant. For each paper, there will be a student discussant, whose job is to read the draft closely and provide constructive criticism as to how the paper could be improved. This is a great scholarly exercise for students to have more experience in the peer-review process. Finally, there will be a short Q&A for each presentation.

 If you would like to present your work or be a discussant, please fill out this signup form. The signups are first-come-first-serve.
