Call for Papers- *Critical Philosophy of Race:* Race, Immigration, and
Refugees

Guest Editor: Dr. Natalie Cisneros, Seattle University



In the second half of 2014 President Obama’s plan to take executive action
and the growing German anti-immigrant movement both drew international
attention and renewed debates about immigration in the twenty-first
century. As these and other, similar conversations about immigration have
gained increasing urgency, global migration has emerged as a central
concern of communities, nations, and citizens in the contemporary world. At
both the national and international level, questions of the relationship
among race, ethnicity, and national identity have been a central feature of
debates about the treatment of immigrants and refugees. As such, recent
national and international debate and political action have underscored how
inextricably linked concerns about race are to concerns about global
migration; conversations about immigration and refugees are also
conversations about race, racism, and racialization.



To further investigate the political and philosophical questions raised by
global migration and responses to it, *Critical Philosophy of Race* seeks
contributions for a special issue on “Race, Immigration, and Refugees.”
This special issue will feature critical philosophical work that seeks to
understand how race, racism, and racialization function with respect to
global migration, the experiences of migrants, and their treatment by
communities, states, and transnational bodies. We welcome essays addressed
to critical philosophers of race as well as work across the disciplines. We
particularly encourage contributions that are working in postcolonial,
transnational, disability, queer, and trans studies.



For consideration, essays of no more than 6,000 words are due by January
20, 2016. Please submit online at
