DESCRIPTION:A guest lecture by Christina Clark-Kazak of Laval University.\n
 \nCo-sponsored with the ɬŔď·¬ Refugee Research Group.\n\nAbstract: Analyz
 ing the Canadian government’s recent responses to displacement in Ukraine\
 , Gaza\, Colombia\, Venezuela\, Haiti and Sudan\, this talk demonstrates h
 ow social age analysis provides an important lens to understand temporary 
 migration policies formulated in response to humanitarian situations. Cont
 extualizing these contemporary policies against the historical backdrop of
  temporary protection responses for Hungarians\, Czechs and Ugandan Asians
 \, I show how social age assumptions are embedded in the discretionary nat
 ure of these ad hoc policies. In particular\, the different requirements f
 or a “family anchor” and the variations in definitions of “family” highlig
 ht structural inequities\, with some Canada-based family members bearing a
 ll costs of “humanitarian programs” while the Canadian government funds se
 rvices for other groups. I argue that differences across the programs also
  indicate important normative assumptions about the conceptualization and 
 value of family and different age categories within Canadian immigration p
 olicy more broadly.\n
