Overview
What shapes public attitudes toward immigration beyond the familiar economic and social arguments? With a rise in negative and harmful narratives being shared about immigration, it is important to unpack these narratives.
This program aims to explore these less visible drivers of immigration attitudes, examining how such narratives arise, spread, and influence opinions. By unpacking these factors, we aim to better understand the complex roots of public views on immigration and how they evolve in response to societal and cultural trends.
This program will begin with presentations from Tomás Jiménez, professor of sociology, and Claire Adida, professor of political science, followed by breakout sessions where participants can ask questions and network with each other.
Please come prepared to discuss your current research and share ideas for future academic research, public-facing work, or applied contributions.
This event will take place on February 4 from 4:30 to 6:00 PM Eastern Time, and will be hosted via Zoom. If you have research interests in this area, we encourage you to apply for this opportunity.
Speakers:
- Tomás Jiménez, Stanford University
- Claire Adida, University of California, San Diego
