DESCRIPTION:La Chaire Oppenheimer en droit public international accueille l
 a professeure Sonia Cancian pour une présentation sur les migrations et le
 ur histoire.\n\nUn lunch sera servi\; Nous demandons donc aux intéressés d
 e confirmer leur présence à: oppenheimer [at] mcgill.ca\n\n[En anglais seu
 lement] Life stories and the law are intrinsically connected. We witness t
 his daily both on a micro- and macro-scale\, whether at a client’s meeting
  with her/his lawyer\, in the courtroom\, in the creation of binding prece
 dents\, in the diffusion of social and legal awareness\, and among countle
 ss other contexts\, in the introduction and implementation of policies and
  laws. As we consider the recent immigration crisis culminating as I write
 \, what becomes especially evident is that the narratives of migrants and 
 refugees—much like their counter-narratives--shape\, and are shaped by\, s
 ocial and political awareness and the creation of policy and laws. What ki
 nds of stories of refugees and migrants are we talking about here? How do 
 they influence the individual and the broader communities\, and vice versa
 ? In what ways do the stories give insight to the shaping of policies and 
 laws?  And\, how do policies influence the lives of migrants and refugees 
 today and in the past? This seminar will lead a discussion on life stories
  of migrants and refugees and their power (or not) within the world of pol
 icy-making and the law.\n\nDr. Sonia Cancian is an associate professor at 
 Zayed University. She is a migration historian with a special interest in 
 letters and other personal narratives in the fields of gender studies\, hi
 story of media\, history of emotions\, memory and the 19th and 20th centur
 y history of Canada and Italy. \n
