Westerners are booking flights to India—not for sightseeing, but to chant Sanskrit mantras in rice fields, live in ashrams, and rise before dawn for kirtan. What's really going on here? In this eye-opening episode, Raghunath speaks with anthropology PhD student Keli Lalita to explore a growing phenomenon: Westerners adopting spiritual practices rooted in ancient India. A yoga class in Brooklyn often leads to a pilgrimage in Vrindavan—and a deeper search for meaning beyond material life. Together, they unpack the global remix of yoga culture, the anthropology of spiritual longing, and why Bhakti Yoga is drawing seekers from all walks of life. Key Topics Include: • Why yoga retreats can feel more authentic than everyday life • How modern yoga became a cross-cultural conversation • The Hare Krishna movement and its Western embrace • Family, food, and spiritual structure through the lens of anthropology • What people are really seeking when they go to India

On this episode of the Migration Waterfowl Podcast, your host Brian Halbleib talks with his friend Elliott Snider. They discuss their recent experiences at Meyers Family Farm in Missouri and the boat trip they took on the Kansas River. Meyers Family Farm is a duck hunting property managed by Ben Meyers, owner of Flight Day Ammunition, and some of his family members. Brian and Elliott talk about Elliott's experiences touring and hunting Meyers Family Farm last season, the new duck hole they helped Ben cut into a section of flooded timber on the property and the fun they had shooting clay targets after the work was done. They also talk about the unique hunting techniques they employ in places like private ground with flooded timber in Missouri and the differences compared to other hunting locations they are used to. They also get into shooting practice, the benefits of bismuth ammo, and preparations for a float trip that Elliott was hosting through his Freelance Duck Hunting YouTube Channel and his North American Waterfowler Podcast. Elliott offers insights on dog training for hunting tests and they discuss goals for the upcoming hunting season. The conversation wraps up with reflections on friendships and the importance of Christian fellowship. You can learn more about Elliott here: https://www.youtube.com/c/FreelanceDuckHunting Takeaways The Myers Family Farm is a magical place for hunting. Flooded timber with acorns attracts ducks effectively. Shooting practice is essential for building confidence. Bismuth ammo allows for more comfortable long-range shots. Float trips provide a unique outdoor experience. Dog training is crucial for successful hunting tests. Setting goals can enhance the hunting experience.

Talking to Prakash Gurung made me realize that not all migrant workers from Nepal are leaving the country out of necessity. When I interviewed him last year the 26-year-old told me about his failed migration attempts – as both a student and a migrant worker – but I got the sense that he had options in-country as well; he just preferred the idea of leaving. I think there are many people in similar circumstances — they could find a job here at home, but believe that abroad they might be able to save more money, live in better conditions, or have more promising future prospects, for themselves and/or their family. One year later Prakash has shelved his migration plans. In their place he has chosen an unusual path—learning classical guitar. A guitar player since his teenage years, Prakash says that playing classical requires much more discipline than playing and singing rock songs, including hours of daily practice. He's found a teacher to guide him on that journey. As you'll hear, Prakash is now talking about finding satisfaction and inner peace on his musical quest. This is a huge turnaround from the half-hearted pledges he was making when we talked in 2024, and a pleasant surprise to me. Want more of these interviews?

Schwerer könnten die weltpolitischen Zeiten nicht sein, in denen sich die „Gruppe der Sieben“ in den kanadischen Rocky Mountains trifft. Themen gibt es beim G7 Gipfel viele. Sie handeln von Migration, dem Umgang mit China, dem Zollstreit und der weiteren Unterstützung der Ukraine und dem fortgesetzten Krieg in Gaza. Jetzt ist noch der Raketenkrieg zwischen Israel und dem Iran dazugekommen. Wie das Treffen ausgehen wird, ist schwer vorherzusagen, weil unklar ist, ob es mit US-Präsident Donald Trump eine gemeinsame Politik geben kann. Aktuell scheint Europa auf sich allein gestellt und die BRICS-Staaten mit China, Russland und Indien fordern den „alten Westen“ zunehmend heraus, während es für Bundeskanzler Friedrich Merz das erste Treffen auf internationaler Bühne ist - die erste größere Bewährungsprobe. Aber welchen Wert hat diese Bühne heute noch? Und was ist vom einstigen „Westen“ übriggeblieben? Eine neue Zeit scheint angebrochen zu sein, in der es auch darum geht, neue Partner zu finden und vielleicht auch einen „neuen Westen“ zu bilden. Wir blicken auf den G7-Gipfel in Kanada und sprechen mit unserem Korrespondenten vor Ort. Der Historiker Sebastian Conrad blickt mit uns auf die Geschichte des Westens. Außerdem sprechen wir über Chinas Anspruch, Weltmacht zu werden und wie westliche Werte in diesen herausfordernden Zeiten verteidigt werden können.

Sagen Sie nicht, dass Sie sich „fremd im eigenen Land” fühlen! Eine solche Aussage kann Sie zur Zielscheibe des Verfassungsschutzes machen, da dieser darin eine rechtsextreme Parole sieht. Genau dieses Thema greift Roland Tichy in dieser „Lage der Nation“ auf. Er analysiert, wie Migration, kulturelle Verschiebungen und Sprachverbote unsere Gesellschaft, den öffentlichen Raum und den sozialen Zusammenhalt verändern. Tichy schildert die Folgen unkontrollierter Migration, von denen Bürger und Migranten gleichermaßen bedroht sind. Denn viele, die einst vor Unterdrückung und religiösem Extremismus nach Deutschland geflohen sind, sehen sich nun erneut davon bedroht.
Throughout the world, migration has become the issue on which elections are decided. Why? And what does that tell us about ourselves? With Hiroshi Motomura, Matthew Longo, Wafa Al Ali, Nanda Oudejans en Martijn Stronks.While the EU continually breaks human rights to stop migrants from reaching Europe, the US is plunging itself into a constitutional crisis over a wrongfully deported migrant that is now detained in a Salvadorian prison.Migration is such a loaded subject, that it is difficult to see what an ethical migration policy could and should actually look like. Tonight, we discuss migration and migration policy, national borders and nationalist politics, and the toxic stranglehold they have on each other.About the speakers:Hiroshi Motomura is world renowned migration scholar, working at the UCLA School of Law.

His work focuses on problems of borders and migration, with a thematic interest in questions of sovereignty, authority and freedom. He wrote the award winning books The Picnic: A Dream of Freedom and the Collapse of the Iron Curtain and The Politics of Borders: Sovereignty, Security, and the Citizen after 9/11.Nanda Oudejans is Associate Professor of Philosophy of Law and Director of the College of Law at the Faculty of Law, University of Amsterdam. Prior to joining the University of Amsterdam, she held academic positions at Utrecht University, VU Amsterdam, and Tilburg University.

Anyone who has ever raised children or managed people knows that nothing works quite as well to correct misconduct as does consequences. When it comes to our government, however, we seem to forget this universal truth and instead rely on the weak hope that the people we elect to rule over us will be good people.This is an error of existential proportions.A government absent consequences is a government unchecked, and that is the very definition of tyranny. All people are imperfect and subject to wavering from the path of good. Our reliance must not be on good people, but on good consequences.Join me as I illustrate this fundamental principle with a couple of real-world example, iced with some brilliance from economist Milton Friedman. We'll also discuss Trump's proposed flag-burning ban, increasingly loud cries to ban ALL third-world migration—both illegal and legal—and a couple of more light-hearted topics to close out the show.Get Your FREE Copy of Our Best-Selling Book: "The Law of Self Defense: Principles"Visit Here: https://lawofselfdefense.com/getthebook"You are wise to buy this material.

Migration policies shape not only the economies of countries but also their politics. In this episode, we dive deep into how letting people leave—or restricting their exit—can have surprising ripple effects on collective action and political reform in their home countries. Yale political scientist Emily Sellars reveals why migration might weaken the power of ordinary people to organize and push for change—and why even those who leave might ultimately lose out. Could closing borders paradoxically strengthen democracy abroad? We unpack a provocative new model that challenges our assumptions about emigration and its role in global politics.

June 12, 2025: Jennifer Stemmler, Chief Digital and Information Officer at Adventist Health, opens up about orchestrating one of healthcare's largest EHR migrations—transitioning 28 hospitals and 400 clinics from a decades-old Cerner system to Epic. Guided by the mantra "on time, on budget, on Epic, on us," how does she maintain control without micromanaging every decision? When groups push back on standardization or value-based care teams clash with implementation timelines, what framework actually works to resolve conflicts? Jennifer reveals her benefits realization scorecard approach and discusses the real challenge behind any major transformation: how do you ensure the organization owns the change rather than waiting for someone else to save them?

In Los Angeles zeigt sich die Spaltung der amerikanischen Gesellschaft gerade unter einem Brennglas. Donald Trump bezeichnet die Stadt als “Müllhaufen”, der aus der Hand von Kartellen befreit werden müsse. Bürgermeisterin Karen Bass wirft der Trump-Regierung vor, ein Experiment mit der Stadt durchzuführen, indem die Armee im Inneren eingesetzt wird, um liberale Städte und Bundesstaaten einzuschüchtern. Was passiert da gerade in Kalifornien? Was will Trump mit seiner radikalen Abschiebepolitik erreichen? Und was bedeutet das für unser Verhältnis zu den USA?
Nach innen öffnen, nach außen schließen – das war der gedankliche Ansatz des Schengener Abkommens, das vor 30 Jahren in Kraft getreten ist. Der Wegfall der Grenzkontrollen innerhalb Europas galt damals als Fortschritt. Inzwischen begegnen viele europäische Staaten, darunter auch Deutschland, der steigenden Migration nach Europa wieder verstärkt mit Kontrollen. Was wird aus der Freizügigkeit in Europa? Ist die Idee von Schengen gescheitert? Doris Maull diskutiert mit Prof. Dr. Stefan Kadelbach – Verfassungs-Europa und Völkerrechtler an der Goethe Universität Frankfurt; Prof. Dr. Winfried Kluth – Vorsitzender des Sachverständigenrats Integration und Migration; Dr. Sandra Kostner – Historikerin und Migrationsforscherin, Pädagogische Hochschule Schwäbisch Gmünd
What happens when migrants are rejected by the host society that first invited them? How do they return to a homeland that considers them outsiders? Foreign in Two Homelands: Racism, Return Migration, and Turkish-German History explores the transnational history of Turkish migrants, Germany's largest ethnic minority, who arrived as 'guest-workers' (Gastarbeiter) between 1961 and 1973. By the 1980s, amid rising racism, neo-Nazis and ordinary Germans blamed Turks for unemployment, criticized their Muslim faith, and argued they could never integrate. In 1983, policymakers enacted a controversial law: paying Turks to leave. Thus commenced one of modern Europe's largest and fastest waves of remigration: within one year, 15% of the migrants—250,000 men, women, and children—returned to Turkey. Their homeland, however, ostracized them as culturally estranged 'Germanized Turks' (Almancı). Through archival research and oral history interviews in both countries and languages, Michelle Lynn Kahn highlights migrants' personal stories and reveals how many felt foreign in two homelands. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core. Guest: Michelle Lynn Kahn (she/her), an Associate Professor of Modern European History at the University of Richmond. She is a scholar of the global and transnational history of Germany after 1945, with expertise in far-right extremism, migration, racism, gender, and sexuality.

Today's episode is a conversation with Dr. Elise Franklin whose first book, Disintegrating Empire: Algerian Family Migration and the Limits of the Welfare State in France, was published by the University of Nebraska Press (2024). Distintegrating Empire examines the processes of decolonization through the intersecting histories of the French welfare state, family migration from Algeria to France, and the French social workers who mediated between the state and their Algerian clients. Franklin argues for the importance of connecting these threads before, through and after formal decolonization, allowing us to see not only the colonial origins of French welfare but the ways in which the French welfare state always winnowed down who could access its benefits, making a “golden age” of welfare only out of the purposeful exclusion of Algerian workers and their families. In our conversation, we cover Franklin's main arguments and how she came to this analysis through the winding path of archival research and intellectual development. Distintegrating Empire blends intimate social histories of Algerian families in the Nord, diplomatic and institutional histories of French and Algerian policy before and after 1962, and political and cultural histories of integration and citizenship as part of the ongoing conversation about who “deserved” welfare and under what conditions. Elise Franklin is an assistant professor at the University of Louisville where she researches modern French history with a particular focus on gender, colonialism, and decolonization.

In this revelatory episode of What's My Thesis?, host Javier Proenza welcomes Chinese-Canadian visual artist Ketty Haolin Zhang for a candid and multifaceted conversation that traverses personal narrative, cultural identity, and the shifting landscapes of the art world. Born in northeastern China and currently based in Vancouver, Chang unpacks the nuances of the “1.5 generation” immigrant experience—a term that resonates deeply in her practice and daily life. Her formative transition from a fifth-tier city in China to cosmopolitan Vancouver was less a relocation and more a system reboot, an abrupt recalibration that continues to echo through her work and worldview. Throughout the discussion, Zhang thoughtfully reflects on her evolution from data analyst at an investment firm to full-time artist, and the calculated risks that led her to embrace painting and mixed media sculpture. Her visual language avoids overt cultural symbolism, instead delving into the atmospheric and emotional terrain of liminal spaces—transitory zones where belonging and alienation coexist in quiet tension. Drawing inspiration from personal snapshots and the intimate memories of others, her work invites viewers to project themselves into the scene, resisting the fixed narratives often expected from artists of diasporic backgrounds. This episode also interrogates the art world's complicated relationship with capitalism, institutional critique, and the silent stigma around commercial ambition. Zhang speaks with clarity about reconciling her creative integrity with the pragmatic need for sustainability, demystifying her approach to grants, residencies, and the economics of art-making in Canada. Together, Zhang and Proenza explore how geography shapes artistic ecosystems—juxtaposing Vancouver's scaled-down, transit-friendly gallery network with the sprawl and ambition of Los Angeles and the high-octane density of New York City. Chang offers a rare, introspective glimpse into the psychology of multilingualism and code-switching, the visceral dissonance of returning to a changed homeland, and the performative nature of self-presentation in the social media age. Themes Covered: The “1.5 generation” identity and its impact on cultural integration Liminality and the aesthetics of in-betweenness Transitioning from a data-driven corporate role to full-time artist Navigating Canada's grant-based art system Cultural tokenization, commercial validation, and institutional critique MFA programs and professionalization across North America Immigrant family expectations and artistic self-determination Choosing between L.A. and New York as an emerging artist Notable Quote: “It is joy to be hidden and disaster not to be found.” – Donald Winnicott, via Ketty Haolin Zhang —

The Libyan Coast Guard is doing the European Union's dirty work, capturing migrants as they attempt to cross the Mediterranean into Europe and throwing them in secretive prisons. There, they are extorted, abused and sometimes killed.
