It's Like a War Zone: Jay's Liminal Experience of Normal and Extreme Work in a UK Supermarket during the Covid-19 Pandemic
This article presents a UK supermarket worker's experiences of work during the COVID-19 pandemic. Writing during a period of uncertainty, Jay's narrative reveals how the sudden and constant transitions between mundanity and extremity on the shop floor evoke conflicting emotions and work intensification that disrupt and reconstruct normality. His accounts describe violent customer behaviours, absent management, a lack of clear organisational polic…
Why do social scientists organise knowledge exchange events? A qualitative interview study
Organising and participating in Knowledge Exchange (KE) events represent a considerable commitment by social science academics. Yet academics’ participation in KE activities is not professionally rewarded as are other academic endeavours, so why do they do it? Understanding academics’ perspectives regarding their own motivations for engaging in KE activities is a lacuna within the literature which this article begins to address. Drawing on qualit…
Fees, flows and imaginaries: Exploring the destination choices arising from intra-national student mobility
Are intra-national student flows driven by the same forces as international student mobility? This paper addresses this question by analysing cross-border student mobility in the UK. The paper identifies four principles that one might expect to drive the destination choices of students from Scotland enrolling in English universities. Following a statistical analysis of student destination choices, it is argued that cross-border moves from Scotlan…
The Political Economy of Immigration Policy: The Example of Scotland
The inward mobility of labour can serve as a driver of economic growth and the immigration policies of many countries are orientated towards this end. However immigration is also a contentious issue, with the general public often displaying hostility towards liberal immigration policies. The compromises between economic and political considerations that states make when developing immigration policy are poorly theorised in academic literature. Th…
In what sense ‘distinctive’? The search for distinction amongst cross-border student migrants in the UK
Public Attitudes towards Migration in Scotland: Exceptionality and Possible Policy Implications
Scotland is often perceived as having a relatively welcoming view towards migrants and is presented as such by its politicians and policymakers. This positioning sits within a broader political context in which the Scottish Government favours immigration but has limited policy levers with which to directly influence it. This paper seeks to scrutinise the supposition that Scotland can be seen as ‘different’ to the rest of the UK in terms of how im…
