Perspectives on Terrorism and Migration in Germany, Europe and Israel: From Discourse to Policy
Haifa and Jerusalem, 24-26 March 2019
The conference launches a cross-cultural discussion on the constructions of securitised collective identities through the intersection of terrorism and migration in public discourse. The discussions examine the political discourse, media discourse and the cultural discourse of Germany, different EU-countries and Israel, in order to expand on current discourses of “othering” and the process of identity formation. Themes for panel discussions include the securitization of national identity within the context of migration and terrorism; The Impact of memory frames on migration and security discourses; Case Studies and Comparison: the media discourses in EU-countries and Israel; re-contextualization and cross-pollination of migration and terror discourses in other securitized civilian realms. The discussion aims to bring together theoretical with practical use of the concepts of terrorism and migration within national security policies, with references to past events that transform these topics into memory frames. We are interested in visual and lingual data from print and digital media, including social media, that embrace motifs which are inherent to the national identity.
