How might collective exa mination of migration in this period by an interdisciplinary group of scho lars help us to understand precariousness and vulnerability as a lived con dition\, one yielding both deeper historical understanding and new insight into the mass population movements of our present moment? This conference will bring together specialists in different fields\, including philosoph ers\, political theorists\, historians\, and scholars of literature\, art\ , music\, law and religion\, to explore the meanings of transnational migr ation in history and culture from multidisciplinary and global perspective s\, and to understand their legacies in the contemporary world.\n\nSpeaker s\nAlan Bewell\, University of Toronto\nJames Q.
