Welcome to IMER Bergen
IMER Bergen, International Migration and Ethnic Relations, is a multidisciplinary research unit at Uni Rokkansenteret/ Uni Research. The aim of IMER Bergen is to contribute to research-based knowledge about international migration, including the consequences of immigration and emigration for societies.
| IMER Bergen is developing four closely related thematic foci. These are: |
| 1) Global Dynamics - processes and effects of selected features of globalization, especially as related to migration and its consequences, transnationalism |
|
| 2) Diversity, Citizenship and Public Sphere - how diversity necessitates new notions about political life, most prominently in citizenship and public sphere; religion and secularism |
| 3) People at Borders and Boundaries - the sociology of movement, processes of inclusion and exclusion, the construction and control of spaces; |
| 4) Emerging urbanities - The plural city, planned pluralism, urban minority/migrant life, housing segregation, the global in the local, governance in ethnically plural cities, multicultural youth life in the city. |
