Teaching Sociology in Turbulent Times
This article calls for a critical reimagining of sociology teaching in today’s political climate, where post-pandemic learning, rising inequalities and institutional power demand urgent reflection. Inspired by bell hooks’ question – what truly matters most? – it asks: what does an ethical praxis of teaching sociology entail, and how do we navigate its politics? I foreground positionality, care and epistemic justice as normative commitments to gui…
Refugees, political bounding and the pandemic
Scholars are increasingly interested in and concerned with both the way various migrant populations are categorised, and the lived impacts of that categorisation. In this article, we examine how categorisation was experienced by people at various stages of the refugee journey during the biggest public health crisis for generations. We argue, using original interview data, that the way refugees are categorised, or politically bound, has material i…
Migrant Solidarity Work in Times of ‘Crisis’
Since 2015, new forms of migrant solidarity work emerged in Glasgow, spurred in part by refugee flows into Europe. Yet, for many organisations, much of their work has not changed since 2000, when the government began dispersing asylum seekers around the UK. Using histories and memories of place as an analytical lens, we examine solidarity work since the 2015 ‘crisis’ as well as over the longer term. In our analysis, the ‘crisis’ is not a critical…
Moving beyond the ‘language problem’
Health systems internationally are dealing with greater diversity in patient populations. However the focus on ‘the language problem’ has meant little attention is paid to diversity within and between migrant populations; and how interpreted consultations are influenced by intersecting migratory, ethnicity and sociodemographic variables. Our analysis of the experiences of patients, health care providers and interpreters in Scotland evidences the …
Community Groups in Context
Whilst there is a growing body of literature on formal voluntary organisations, relatively little research has been undertaken into the roles and functioning of small, informal, below the radar community groups and actions. ‘Community groups in context: Local activities and actions’ brings together a decade of research with informal community groups and small scale civil society organisations. It explores the wealth and diversity of their forms a…
