According to the UN, campaigns advocating a <em>leave<\/em> vote presented a &#8216;divisive, anti-immigrant and xenophobic rhetoric&#8217; (Stone, 2016) and in the three weeks following the vote there was a 20% increase in reported race related hate crime in the UK (BBC, 2016). As Brexit campaigners stated that leaving the EU would make &#8216;Britain Great Again&#8217;, anti-migrant and xenophobic narratives conflated, implying that migration threatens <em>Britishness<\/em>. Sociologically, in this context, the boundary between historically distinct fields (migration research and race and ethnicity research) becomes blurred. This event provides a timely opportunity to examine the interface between these fields and consider directions for future research.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Plenary speakers:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Professor Sarah Neal, The University of Sheffield<\/li>\n<li>Dr Jon Fox, University of Bristol<\/li>\n<li>Professor Louise Ryan, The University of Sheffield<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Registration for the event is now open and can be completed via the following link: <a href=\"https:\/\/portal.britsoc.co.uk\/public\/event\/eventBooking.aspx?id=EVT10629\">https:\/\/portal.britsoc.co.uk\/public\/event\/eventBooking.aspx?id=EVT10629<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>How to find us:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>University of Sheffield<br \/>\nDepartment of Sociological Studies<br \/>\nElmfield, Northumberland Road<br \/>\nSheffield S10 2TU<\/p>\n<p>Find us on the map: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.co.uk\/maps\/?q=53.382368,-1.496075&amp;ll=53.382368,-1.496075&amp;z=18\">https:\/\/www.google.co.uk\/maps\/?q=53.382368,-1.496075&amp;ll=53.382368,-1.496075&amp;z=18<\/a><\/p>\n<p>For further information visit conference website: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.britsoc.co.uk\/events\/key-bsa-events\/belonging-in-a-post-brexit-vote-britain-researching-race-ethnicity-and-migration-in-a-changing-landscape\">https:\/\/www.britsoc.co.uk\/events\/key-bsa-events\/belonging-in-a-post-brexit-vote-britain-researching-race-ethnicity-and-migration-in-a-changing-landscape<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A BSA Early Career Forum Regional Event University of Sheffield, Sheffield, UK &nbsp; A one-day conference hosted by the Department of Sociological Studies (in collaboration with the British Sociological Association and the University&#8217;s Migration Research Network) will be held at The University of Sheffield on the 9&nbsp;May 2017.
