I was invited to speak with @UniofOxford MSc Migration Studies students about @OxfordCity’s #InclusiveCommunities work incl supporting #refugees and migrants. Nuha Abdo, founder, @SistersSyrian, spoke about settling in Oxford as a refugee and award winning Damascus Rose Kitchen.

While this MP was tirelessly at work watching "the removal of Albanians", praising the fantastic staff operating "round the clock to find Albanians, to detain them, to put them onto coaches”, here is the latest Home Office horror story Albanian friends shared with me -a thread 1/

@bibliofilka Done! Will share to Facebook too x

@magdagul could you please retweet, what with your Manchester friends and contacts?

Host needed in #MANCHESTER: M, 23yo, is an Eritrean refugee. He wants to learn to drive & likes going to the gym & meeting new people. M used to farm but wants to work in construction. He needs a host after Xmas, while he works with a housing officer to find a space in #Rochdale

@russophiliac @EmmaRimpilainen Had the pleasure of examining Emma's thesis where she develops these arguments.

@HeathershawJ @s_furstenberg thanks, this is great!

@magdagul In this @s_furstenberg lead-authored paper our focus is more on spaces of forced migration but there are some temporal aspects, at least the simple three-stage model. cambridge.org/core/journals/…

Hello Twitter hivemind. I'm updating my syllabus for my course on Migration, Time and Temporality. In the final seminar we discuss how emergency and crisis shape the ways that particular forms of human movement are experienced, managed & framed. 1/

@caress_schenk @ymatusik @russophiliac @BotakozKassymb1 @EricaMarat @caress_schenk any specific recs in terms of literature on mobility bias?

@magdagul @ymatusik @russophiliac @BotakozKassymb1 @EricaMarat I'm sure you probably have mobility bias on your list, but I find myself engaging that idea as central in these current days.

Yesterday the Kyrgyz Academy of Sciences elected its Presidium. Out of 13 positions only 2 are taken by women. For the average age of the Academy's members, see the picture below. Speaks volumes about the state of science in #Kyrgyzstan is just one big old #manel

@russophiliac @mostowlansky @ymatusik @caress_schenk @BotakozKassymb1 @EricaMarat thank you @russophiliac!

@magdagul @mostowlansky @ymatusik @caress_schenk @BotakozKassymb1 @EricaMarat It's not on war but Vorbrugg on Slow violence just came out.

@caress_schenk @ymatusik @russophiliac @BotakozKassymb1 @EricaMarat oh brilliant, thank you @caress_schenk, these leads are fantastic.

@magdagul @ymatusik @russophiliac @BotakozKassymb1 @EricaMarat There's a recent episode of Eurasianet's podcast. pca.st/episode/ba7c98…

@caress_schenk @ymatusik @russophiliac @BotakozKassymb1 @EricaMarat Thanks for your suggestions, @caress_schenk. We already have your wonderful chapter on our reading list (we read it last year too!!)

@magdagul @ymatusik @russophiliac @BotakozKassymb1 @EricaMarat I have a chapter in this volume about how migration crises in Russia are of the government's making. The Oxford Handbook of Migration Crises g.co/kgs/P71r8i

@JanGrill8 @ymatusik @caress_schenk @russophiliac @BotakozKassymb1 @EricaMarat Thank you, great suggestion, I will check this out!

@magdagul @ymatusik @caress_schenk @russophiliac @BotakozKassymb1 @EricaMarat Not on the regional-geo-political focus but this discussion forum on 'shock mobilities' is interesting and might be relevant for your course: Shock Mobilities During Moments of Acute Uncertainty tandfonline.com/doi/pdf/10.108…

@mostowlansky @ymatusik @caress_schenk @russophiliac @BotakozKassymb1 @EricaMarat Thank you, @mostowlansky! We have Hage on our list :)

@magdagul @ymatusik @caress_schenk @russophiliac @BotakozKassymb1 @EricaMarat If not on the list yet, Ghassan Hage including his most recent book on the Lebanese diaspora and waiting, as well as the extensive work of Shahram Khosravi on waiting and temporality, also in the form of theatre and other forms of art.

I'm also eager to hear suggestions of materials in other media that you might recommend - podcasts, blog posts, talks and the like. Thanks. 5/ @ymatusik @caress_schenk @russophiliac @BotakozKassymb1 @EricaMarat

I'd be grateful for any suggestions of readings (in anthropology, but not only) that you have found generative, particularly literatures that explicitly describe, address or theorise the temporal aspects of forced exit or forced immobility in the context of war. 4/
