Call for Applications: Kinship, Illegal Cooperation and Criminalization
We cordially invite you to apply to participate in the workshop “Kinship, Illegal Cooperation, and Criminalization. “Clan Crime” Debates and Family-Based Networks in European and Global Perspective“, which is funded as part of the DFG project KIN-COOPERATIONS: Illegal Cooperation and Kinship Dynamics — An Anthropological Analysis of al-Rāšidīya in Germany. The application deadline is 1 April 2026.
The workshop will take place over one and a half days at FAU Erlangen (Germany) in 19-20 October 2026. It will begin on the afternoon of Day 1 and continue through a full Day 2. The workshop is conceived as the starting point for an edited volume on kinship, illegal cooperation, and criminalization, co-edited by the organisers, Prof. Dina Siegel (Utrecht University) and Dr. Mahmoud Jaraba (FAU EZIRE). All accepted participants will be invited—and are expected—to contribute a chapter to this volume. The working language of the workshop will be English.
