What makes a nation and who counts in the “we”? What happens when migration and a refugee crisis forces us to redefine the nation? Join faculty from The New School for Social Research and University of Toronto as they discuss what defines national identity, how our imagined communities are impacting elections around the globe, and how violence and migration often go hand in hand.

Lunch will be served.
