What Makes a Diaspora?

Middle Eastern Minorities, the Americas, and Jewish Studies in Conversation

Konferenz in Köln im Mai 2027 – Deadline for proposals: October 1, 2026

What makes a diaspora? Not every population on the move becomes one, and
not every dispersed community claims the term. This workshop is
designed to bring three fields into conversation: American studies,
Middle Eastern and North African (MENA) studies, and Jewish studies.
