Boundaries and Belonging in the Indo-Myanmar Borderlands: Chin refugees in Mizoram
This seminar will consider the case of Chin refugees from Myanmar in the north-east Indian State of Mizoram, drawing on Migdal’s (2004) concepts of ‘virtual checkpoints’ and ‘mental maps’ to analyse and interpret the trajectory of boundary-creation, boundary-policing and boundary-removal in Mizo-Chin relationships. It is often assumed that the life course of displacement is one of deteriorating relationships between refugees and a host community.

Transforming Memory: Community Recollections of Inter-Religious Peace and Conflict in Myanmar
Research and training conducted by the Myanmar Media and Society (M.MAS) project in 2015 encountered persistent expressions of fear and antagonism directed towards religious Others as well as articulated memories of solidarity and peace. People would often seek to reconcile the contradiction between these memories and contemporary narratives that demonize religious Others. Our research suggests that these attempts at reconciling contradiction can make important contributions to peace.
