In this Episode of Talk On, Jagat Sohail discusses his research
on the experience of refugees in Germany during and after the
"long summer of migration" in 2015. His research sheds light on
the unexpected wave of hospitality towards refugees that
characterised that summer, the subsequent turnaround in the
public eye, and the rise of anti-immigrant, right-wing populism.
As a researcher from India, Sohail inverts the classic dynamic of
anthropologists from Europe and the US researching in the Global
South, reflecting on the significance of this perspective and the
methodological implications of such vantage points for
ethnographers.
