EUI Seminar: What makes some narratives spread?

March 23, 2025 · by · in Announcements, Seminar

Narratives are increasingly recognised as central to migration politics and policymaking. The next MPC seminar will feature a presentation by James Dennison, offering an overview of the latest research advances on migration narratives. Join him as he:

  • Examines the concept of narratives: their definition, impact on human experience, and factors influencing their spread.
  • Applies insights to explore belief in the anti-immigration narrative (the Great Replacement Theory) using original European data.
  • Presents survey results on belief in 20 migration narratives among representative samples from Kenya, Nigeria, and South Africa, focusing on migration desires and behaviours.
