Lea Klarenbeek, PhD on Reconceptualising Integration

from The Ivory Tower · host Room for Discussion

The discussion on migration and integration is more relevant than ever in the Netherlands. Ideas around integration are hotly debated in politics. To get another perspective on this, we asked Lea Klarenbeek to join us in a conversation on the way integration is seen in society and research. Lea Klarenbeek wrote her dissertation on Integration at the University of Amsterdam. Her research primarily focuses on the conceptualization of 'integration' in migration studies. In her dissertation, she argues that integration is often mistakenly viewed and measured as an individual achievement. To address this, Klarenbeek has developed a theoretical framework of relational integration, offering an epistemic and methodological alternative to traditional integration research in both its conceptualization and operationalization.This was another episode of 'Ivory Tower', a podcast by Room for Discussion that asks simple questions about complex issues. Interviewer: Saskia BergmanMore about us:  Our Website  Our Instagram  Our Twitter  Our Linkedin
