Project Overview - Conflicts, Ambivalences and Negotiations in Norwegian Postmigration Literature
The project focuses on contemporary Norwegian literature, and in particular on the so-called postmigration production, whose protagonists are “second-generation immigrants”, “mixed-race people” and transnational adoptees. The concept of postmigration proposes to consider migration as a phenomenon that “affects” the entire society, not only individuals labelled as “migrants”, and suggests the overcoming of the dichotomies that oppose immigrants and their children to the majority population. The concept of postmigration is used in combination with that of intersectionality, according to which factors of advantage and disadvantage must be seen in connection with each other, such as gender, sex, race, ethnicity, class, sexuality, religion, disability, age etc. For each theme, a group of works is selected, in order to highlight similarities and differences through a comparative analysis. The main research questions are: What are the biggest problems that the postmigrant generation has to face in contemporary Norwegian society? How does the postmigrant generation expand the concept of ?Norwegianness?? It will also be important to consider the previous migration production and have a transnational perspective to compare Norway with its neighbors Sweden and Denmark.
