Using qualitative research methods, including participant observation, semi-structured interviews, surveys, and discourse analysis, this project will specifically examine how state development initiatives, particularly subsidies for house-building, and cultural politics of modernity together shape labor migration, as well as the effects of labor migration to urban areas on Tibetan subjectivities. This project will contribute to the field of development geography through its investigation of governmentality and modernity in an authoritarian, non-Western Context. It also contributes to migration geography by analyzing how cultural politics and political-babyÖ±²¥app factors come together in producing labor migration and how the embodied experience of labor migration shapes migrant and urban subjectivities.</div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <h2> <div class="paragraph paragraph--type--ucb-related-articles-block paragraph--view-mode--default"> <div>Off</div> </div> </h2> <div>Traditional</div> <div>0</div> <div>On</div> <div>White</div> Thu, 08 Mar 2018 22:11:12 +0000 Anonymous 2448 at /geography Jennifer Dinaburg Memorial Research Award for PhD Students /geography/2017/05/10/jennifer-dinaburg-memorial-research-award-phd-students <span>Jennifer Dinaburg Memorial Research Award for PhD Students</span> <span><span>Anonymous (not verified)</span></span> <span><time datetime="2017-05-10T13:25:43-06:00" title="Wednesday, May 10, 2017 - 13:25">Wed, 05/10/2017 - 13:25</time> </span> <div role="contentinfo" class="container ucb-article-categories" itemprop="about"> <span class="visually-hidden">Categories:</span> <div class="ucb-article-category-icon" aria-hidden="true"> <i class="fa-solid fa-folder-open"></i> </div> <a href="/geography/taxonomy/term/70"> Honors &amp; Awards </a> <a href="/geography/taxonomy/term/60"> News </a> </div> <div role="contentinfo" class="container ucb-article-tags" itemprop="keywords"> <span class="visually-hidden">Tags:</span> <div class="ucb-article-tag-icon" aria-hidden="true"> <i class="fa-solid fa-tags"></i> </div> <a href="/geography/taxonomy/term/188" hreflang="en">Gretchen Lang</a> <a href="/geography/taxonomy/term/186" hreflang="en">Jessica DiCarlo</a> <a href="/geography/taxonomy/term/172" hreflang="en">Kyle Rodman</a> <a href="/geography/taxonomy/term/168" hreflang="en">Zhaxi Duojie</a> </div> <a href="/geography/jessica-dicarlo-0">Jessica DiCarlo</a> <span>,&nbsp;</span> <a href="/geography/zhaxi-duojie-0">Zhaxi Duojie</a> <span>,&nbsp;</span> <a href="/geography/gretchen-lang-0">Gretchen Lang</a> <span>,&nbsp;</span> <a href="/geography/kyle-rodman-0">Kyle Rodman</a> <div class="ucb-article-content ucb-striped-content"> <div class="container"> <div class="paragraph paragraph--type--article-content paragraph--view-mode--default 3"> <div class="ucb-article-row-subrow row"> <div class="ucb-article-text col-lg d-flex align-items-center" itemprop="articleBody"> <div><p>The Department of Geography is pleased to announce that Jessica DiCarlo, Zhaxi Duojie, Gretchen Lang and Kyle Rodman have received the Jennifer Dinaburg Memorial Research Award for PhD students for Spring 2017.
