Migration, Slavery & Diaspora Studies
The Migration, Slavery & Diaspora Studies hub provides a supportive environment for research and teaching about issues surrounding slavery, migration and diasporas, subjects of great current political, economic, social, and cultural interest both within and beyond the academy.
The Migration, Slavery and Diaspora studies hub hosts a monthly informal group for members to read and discuss new work in the History of Slavery. We usually meet on the first Friday of each month. To receive updates about the reading group please contact Diana Paton diana.paton@ed.ac.uk.
