SUMMARY:It’s (still) capitalism\, stupid!
DESCRIPTION:WHO?\nDaniela Chironi (Scuola Normale Superiore) \nEraldo Souza Dos Santos (Université Panthéon-Sorbonne) \nJessica Whyte (University of New South Wales) \nLorenzo Zamponi (Scuola Normale Superiore) \nLorenzo Cini (University College Cork) \nVeronika Zablotsky (Freie Universität Berlin) \nWHAT?\nIn 2013\, the Collettivo Prezzemolo\, a group of politically engaged PhD researchers and PostDocs at the EUI\, organised the “Festival of the other Europe – It’s capitalism\, stupid!”. This event can be regarded as the precursor to the Alternative State of the Union (un)conference\, which held a pilot event in May last year. Eleven years on from the original “Festival of the other Europe”\, we are inviting alumna members of the Colletivo Prezzemolo\, as well as other activist-academics\, to lead a horizontal discussion entitled “It’s (still) capitalism\, stupid!”\, picking up on the themes and topics of the conversation (policing\, surveillance\, civil society\, radical democracy\, nationalism\, austerity\, etc)\, especially when it comes to social movements\, how the economic situation is influencing the political situation at present\, and how we as activist-academics can respond with a progressive or radical agenda that can give hope in a period of poly-crisis. We will also be discussing what it means to be an activist-academic. This event is also an opportunity to link with EUI alumni\, SNS\, Paris 1\, FU Berlin\, and even further afield. \nAbout the speakers\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDaniela Chironi (bio tbc)\n\n\nEraldo Souza dos Santos (they/them/theirs)\, MA\, is a PhD candidate in Philosophy at Panthéon-Sorbonne University\, in France.

They are a historian of legal and political thought. Their research explores how political concepts have come to shape political discourse and political practice\, and how political actors have come to contest the meaning of these concepts in turn. In their current book project\, they trace the global history of the idea of civil disobedience. They are also currently writing a family memoir on race and modern slavery in Brazil. Their next project and monograph will provide a racial genealogy of the idea that it is necessary to defend democracy against its enemies.

SUMMARY:Intimately Material: Collective Reflexion on the Material Conditions of Academia
DESCRIPTION:Joint event organised in collaboration with the EUI Queer and Feminist Working Group \nWHAT?\nThe workshop is part of the conference “Intimately Material: Violence\, Social Reproduction\, & Queerness in Transition”\, organised by the EUI Queer and Feminist Working Group at the EUI.  \nIn the workshop\, we will interrogate the place of academia and the participants’ lived experiences of doing research. By collectively writing “sick notes”\, we want to discuss themes related to the material conditions of doing research\, such as job uncertainty\, capitalistic approaches to research\, academic mobility\, and social reproduction. Our conclusions will be turned into a collective statement expressing our own experienced materialities and ideas of change. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nREGISTER HERE*\n\n\n*Note that registration to this joint event is via the EUI webpage. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue

SUMMARY:Beyond borders? Academic and activist research at EU borders
DESCRIPTION:WHO?\nFederico Alagna (Scuola Normale Superiore)\, Kamila Fiałkowska (University of Warsaw and Badaczki i Badacze na Granicy)\, Giulia Fabini (University of Bologna) and Martina Tazzioli (University of Bologna) \nWHAT?\nThis roundtable focuses on borders and calls for a dialogue that brings empirical\, conceptual and philosophical perspectives together. While Frontex has increased its workforce to control the external borders next to national border guards\, it is also becoming increasingly normal to encounter border controls within the Schengen area itself. External and internal borders of the European Union (EU) are spaces of daily violence and illegal pushbacks\, but also of daily resistance from those on the move and their supporters. How do we tell the story of this resurgence of borders in Europe? Have they always been so present\, or are they just more visible? What is our role as researchers and/or activists doing research at/on borders?  \nThis roundtable invites speakers to share their experiences – as academics and/or activists – at the internal and external borders of the EU. Through a roundtable format\, the event aims at:  \n\nSharing field experiences about the situation at particular borders in Europe\nDiscussing the changing nature of borders and of (re/de)-bordering practices and their effect on people on the move and locals\nReflecting collectively on more critical understandings of borders and migration\nDiscussing how it is possible to navigate political engagements within academic institutions Each participant will make a presentation of their research and/or activist experience of 10 minutes\, after which we will open the floor for discussion.\n\nABOUT THE SPEAKERS\n\nGiulia Fabini is a Junior Assistant Professor in the Department of Legal Studies at the University of Bologna. She holds a PhD in Law and Society from the University of Milan and was a student researcher at the Center for the Study of Law and Society at UC Berkeley. Giulia’s research focuses on border control and the interaction between migrants and the police\, migrant struggles\, immigration courts\, and the prison system from a gender perspective. She is currently collaborating on two research projects on police women and the prison police. Giulia acted as the Assistant Editor for the European Journal of Criminology (2017-2020) and she is a member of the editorial boards of Studi sulla questione criminale\, Rivista Antigone\, and Justice\, Power and Resistance. As an activist\, she is an observer of Antigone Association and has the authorization to visit prisons in Emilia-Romagna region. She is part of the European Society of Criminology\, the European Group for the study of deviance and social control\, and the Law and Society Association. Her most recent publication is Governing Immobility in the COVID-19 Crisis in Italy: Non-conforming Behaviors of Migrants Confronting the New Old Processes of Othering\n\n\nKamila Fiałkowska is a researcher at the Centre of Migration Research\, University of Warsaw and one of the coordinators of the Researchers on the Borders (Badaczki i Badacze na Granicy – https://www.bbng.org/) – a grassroots\, inter-university\, interdisciplinary research network created in response to the ongoing humanitarian crisis on the Polish-Belarusian border. Kamila obtained her PhD in 2018 at the Faculty of Political Studies and International Relations at the University of Warsaw. Her research focuses on gender relations in migratory settings\, masculinity studies and family relations\, as well as the construction of national and gender identities. \n\n\nMartina Tazzioli is an Associate Professor in the Department of History and Cultures at the University of Bologna. She holds a PhD in Politics from Goldsmiths\, University of London\, and an MA in Philosophy from the University of Pisa. Martina’s research is situated at the crossroads of Political Geography\, Critical Migration and Border Studies\, and Political Philosophy. She is currently working on three projects: One on memory of border controls and migrants’ struggles\, a related project about counter-mapping and legal geographies of border violence on the central Mediterranean route\, and a research project about social reproduction activities in camps\, with a focus on Greece. Her latest publications include Border abolitionism: migration containment and the genealogies of struggles (2023)\, The Making of Migration. The Biopolitics of Mobility at Europe’s Borders (2019)\, and Spaces of Governmentality: Autonomous Migration and the Arab Uprisings (2015). \n\n\nFederico Alagna is a Postdoctoral Research Fellow in Political Science and Political Sociology in the Faculty of Political and Social Sciences at the Scuola Normale Superiore and Adjunct Professor of Political Science at the University of Bologna. Federico’s research focuses on the politics of migration in the EU and Italy\, with specific reference to the migrant smuggling policy regime\, the role of civil society actors in the production of migration policies from below\, the criminalisation of people on the move and solidarity initiatives. He is a political activist\, mostly in the migrant solidarity and right to the city movements\, and is part of the sea rescue initiative Mediterranea Saving Humans.

SUMMARY:Political humanitarianism\, the Black Mediterranean and border violence
DESCRIPTION:WHO?\nBeppe Caccia (Mediterranea)\, David Yambio (Alliance for the Refugees in Libya)\, Ida Danewid (University of Sussex)\, Vivian Gerrand (Deakin University) and others! \nWHAT?\nThis unconference panel is an ‘egalitarian exchange of questions’\, which aims to bring humanitarian organisations into dialogue with university-based activists working for the rights and dignity of migrant people within and beyond Europe. Among other questions\, we will discuss what the historical role of mobility controls has been in capturing and disciplining a mobile workforce\, and how activist-academic discourse can build practically applicable counter-narratives to this. We will critique and formulate political alternatives to today’s humanitarian discourse by exploring non-statist forms of care and communality seen among Mediterranean communities. We will examine new possibilities thrown up by the way the Black Mediterranean and ‘bordered’ violence have changed over the past 20 years. We will centre the role of refugees as protagonists in the fight for human rights\, particularly in the context of Libyan refugees in Italy. These questions\, collectively reflected upon\, will feed into the creation of an action plan for use by university communities who wish to bridge the gap between academia\, humanitarian activism and journalism for migrant rights.  \n  \nABOUT THE SPEAKERS\n\nDr. Ida Danewid is a social and political theorist based in the Department of International Relations at the University of Sussex. Her research interests are in anticolonial political thought\, the black radical tradition\, gender studies\, and histories of internationalism “from below.” She is the author of Resisting Racial Capitalism: An Antipolitical Theory of Refusal (Cambridge University Press). \n\n\n Vivian Gerrand is a scholar of alternative / counter narratives\, migration\, citizenship\, postcoloniality\, radicalisation and resilience who has been studying cultures of migration in Italy since 2003. She lives with European heritage on the unceded lands of the Kulin Nation in Naarm (Melbourne\, Australia)\, where she was born.\n\n\nDavid Yambio (Alliance for the Refugees in Libya) – To be completed\n\n\nBeppe Caccia (Mediterranea)- To be completed\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nREGISTER HERE\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue

SUMMARY:Palestine & Academia: protecting academic freedom & exploring the power dynamics\, logistics and obstacles faced by Palestinian scholars at risk
DESCRIPTION:WHO?\nArees Bishara (Tel Aviv University)\, Maria Chiara Rioli (University of Modena and Reggio Emilia)\, Federica Stagni (Scuola Normale Superiore & SESAMO)\, Jairo Flores-Funez (Texas Tech University)\, Anna Younes (Graduate Institute)\, Malaka Shaikh (University of St Andrews) \nWHAT?\nThe EUI Working Group on Palestine and the Legal and Political Theory WG present a joint two-part event\, which will focus on the obstacles and repression faced by both Palestinian refugees and scholars working on Palestine. In the first part\, we will explore and discuss diverse obstacles faced by Palestinian refugees locally in Florence\, and comparatively in other contexts more broadly. Our speakers will share their perspectives and experience on approaching logistical issues such as visas\, health insurance\, discrimination – as well as navigating claims of antisemitism in doing work on Palestine. We will have a participatory open discussion\, in which the aim will be to collectively discuss how to aggregate and account for these issues\, so that we might produce action points to more proactively support Palestinian refugees to our local community in Florence\, and to join our European University Institute. After a short break we will then focus on the more academic dimension and explore the difficulties and outright repression scholars working on Palestine face. Western universities often embrace anti- “cancel culture” narratives to justify their failure to combat racist\, sexist\, colonial\, or homophobic speech on campus. Their response is however diametrically opposite when it comes to anti-racist researchers and professors\, who find their voices suppressed by censorship and layoff threats. In Europe\, just like racism itself\, the problem continues to be ignored and hidden from the (white) public eye. Yet\, that is the modus operandi of its academic institutions\, especially regarding anti-Zionism. The recent developments in Israel’s genocidal colonial project have intensified that institutional persecution and shed light on how academic freedom is often limited to those who speak within the current hegemonic frame\, while others must fear consequences to their career and lives. In the second part of our joint event\, we invite all to break the myth of the “leftist university”. We welcome persons who have experienced said persecution to discuss academic repression and the fallacy of cancel culture in a world where most universities (and especially those in the Global North) are willingly furthering the status quo and actively impeding radical emancipatory critique. We will conclude\, with recommendations on how to ensure academic freedom and how to protect scholars working counter-hegemonic projects such as the important work being done on Palestine. \nAbout the speakers\n\nArees Bishara is a Palestinian Activist and doctoral student in political and economic sociology at Tel Aviv University\, studying the Palestinian ICT sector\, the Israeli high-tech industry – as well as indigenous encounters with neoliberalism\, the knowledge economy\, technology\, and entrepreneurship in settler-colonial and patriarchal contexts.\n\n  \n\nMaria Chiara Rioli is Tenure-Track Assistant Professor in Contemporary History at the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia\, Italy. She has hands-on experience with assisting Palestinian refugees\, and chairs the Committee for Academic Freedom of the Italian Society for Middle Eastern Studies (SeSaMO).\n\n  \n\n\nFederica Stagni holds a Ph.D. from the Faculty of Political Sciences and Sociology of the Scuola Normale Superiore under the supervision of Donatella della Porta and Lorenzo Bosi. Her research focuses on anti-demolition and anti-eviction movements in Israel and Palestine\, where she has spent periods of field research. Federica obtained a degree in International and Diplomatic Sciences from the University of Bologna and a Master’s in European and International Studies from the School of International Studies of Trento. She worked as a researcher for ACLED in the Middle East working group. She has published in several scientific journals\, such as Critical Sociology\, PACO\, the International Journal of Qualitative Methods\, and Theoria. \n\n\n  \n\nJairo Flores-Funez (Texas Tech University)\n\n  \n\nAnna Younes (Graduate Institute)\n\n  \n\nMalaka Shaikh (University of St Andrews)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nREGISTER HERE\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n	\n	\n\n	\n					Details		\n	\n	\n\n		\n			 Date: \n			\n				 May 14\, 2024 \n			\n\n			 Time: \n			\n				\n					10:00 – 12:00											CEST\n									\n			\n\n		\n		\n		\n		Event Categories: altSOU’24\, Hybrid event\, Roundtable\n		Event Tags:EU law\, Europe\, Human Rights\, International Law\, Lebanon\, Palestine\n		\n			\n\n	\n\n	\n					Organiser			\n	\n					\n							\n			\n				STG Fellows			\n				\n\n\n	\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue \n\n\n\n	\n	\n\n	\n		Sala Triaria (Villa Schifanoia) + on zoom\n	\n\n	\n			\n			\n\n\n	Florence\,\n\n\n\n	Italy\n\n\n\n					\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n\n\n	\n		\n			\n				\n					\n						\n  \n  \n\n						\n							Add to calendar						\n						\n					\n					\n						\n															\n									\n										Google Calendar									\n								\n															\n									\n										iCalendar									\n								\n															\n									\n										Outlook 365									\n								\n															\n									\n										Outlook Live

SUMMARY:Sinking Europe\, Thinking migration: the law in theory and practice
DESCRIPTION:WHO?\nMartina Flamini (Ufficio del Massimario in Corte di Cassazione)\, Chiara Favilli (UniFi)\, Françoise Blum (Navire Avenir)\, Romain Lanneau (Statewatch)\, SOS Méditerranée (Name tbc)\, Tineke Strik (European Parliament) \nWHAT?\nThe European Union seems to be determined to contain migration at any cost\, including the high chance of being complicit in the death at sea of people attempting to access Europe\, and of fundamental rights breaches at its borders. A growing number of regulations and legislative proposals aim at creating major obstacles to prevent people on the move from enjoying their fundamental rights. Additionally\, internal regulations continue to separate people depending on the basis of social\, cultural and ethnic faultlines. While theorizing migration law as racist and postcolonial seems quite straightforward\, forging practices of resistance becomes more and more arduous due to the political landscape.The roundtable provides a platform for a critical discussion on the multifaceted challenges and complexities surrounding the legal framework of migration in the European Union (EU). Drawing on diverse perspectives from civil society\, policymaking\, activists and practitioners\, the roundtable will delve into these matters through a collaborative dialogue. The hope is that through lively exchanges among the participants\, innovative strategies of resistance and creative policy proposals can be imagined. \nABOUT THE SPEAKERS\n\nMartina Flamini\, civil judge engaged in migration and asylum law\, privacy law\, human rights\, data protection\, non discrimination\, and medical malpractice. She is currently working in Ufficio del Massimario of the Italian Court of Cassation. She is a member of groups “asylum and migration”\, European project ACTIONES\, REJUS and FRICORE in the field of asylum and migration. Martina Flamini is also a judicial trainer of the Italian School of Judiciary and of the EUAA. Martina Flamini is going to contribute to the collective reflection on (sinking) Europe dealing with migration and asylum drawing from her vast experience on the field as a judge.\n\n  \n\nChiara Favilli\, lawyer and professor of EU law at University of Florence. Chiara acted as a lawyer in a Dublin case before the CJEU in preliminary reference procedure (C‐228/21\, C‐254/21\, C‐297/21\, C‐315/21 e C‐328/21). She will share her experience in challenging the most disreputable piece of legislation in EU migration law\n\n  \n\nFrançoise Blum\, former European civil servant\, she is currently engaged in the Navire Avenir Project\, which aims at the creation of a European Maritime Flag for operations of rescue of migrants in the Mediterranean Sea. Françoise will present how this project fits into the European migration context and discuss the role of the law in shaping the rescue of migrants at sea.\n\n  \n\nRomain Lanneau\, Consultant researcher working for Statewatch\, a civil society organisation that produces and promotes critical research\, policy analysis and investigative journalism to inform debates\, movements and campaigns on civil liberties\, human rights and democratic standards. Romain will discuss the use of secret evidence in migration and asylum cases in the EU and the potential (in theory) for data protection to offer an effective remedy\n\n  \n\nTineke Strik is an MEP in the European Parliament since 2019\, affiliated with the Greens. She is also a professor of Citizenship and Migration Law at Radboud University. She will offer a political perspective on European migration law and in particular talk about the New Pact on Migration and Asylum that has been discussed in and adopted by the Parliament in April 2024. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nREGISTER HERE\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n	\n	\n\n	\n					Details		\n	\n	\n\n		\n			 Date: \n			\n				 May 14\, 2024 \n			\n\n			 Time: \n			\n				\n					10:00 – 12:00											CEST\n									\n			\n\n		\n		\n		\n		Event Categories: altSOU’24\, Hybrid event\, Roundtable\n		Event Tags:EU law\, Europe\, Human Rights\, International Law\, Lebanon\, Palestine\n		\n			\n\n	\n\n	\n					Organiser			\n	\n					\n							\n			\n				STG Fellows			\n				\n\n\n	\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue \n\n\n\n	\n	\n\n	\n		Sala Triaria (Villa Schifanoia) + on zoom\n	\n\n	\n			\n			\n\n\n	Florence\,\n\n\n\n	Italy\n\n\n\n					\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n\n\n	\n		\n			\n				\n					\n						\n  \n  \n\n						\n							Add to calendar						\n						\n					\n					\n						\n															\n									\n										Google Calendar									\n								\n															\n									\n										iCalendar									\n								\n															\n									\n										Outlook 365									\n								\n															\n									\n										Outlook Live
