The first day of the workshop will be devoted to conceptual and methodological approaches to pluri-local family life as one of numerous new settings for post-modern family life. The second day of the workshop will focus on the example of multi-local family life after separation and divorce. The multi-local conduct of everyday family life, translocal connections and relations, multiple belonging and the resulting mobility of adults and children in post-separation families will be discussed from various perspectives.
Until now, multi-local family life has been studied and debated in such diverse research contexts as migration research, mobility studies, housing studies, research on post-separation families and research on dual career, long-distance and commuter couples. So far, hardly any connections have been established between these different research contexts. The workshop aims to foster the exchange between international and interdisciplinary scholars with respect to the various conceptual and methodological approaches to multi-sited family life.
