The Field Reports are a series of academic reflections and analyses authored by project team members and other researchers working on resonant themes. The Reports are produced and made available through the ERC-funded EMPTINESS project, based at the Centre for Migration, Policy & Society (COMPAS), School of Anthropology & Museum Ethnography (SAME), University of Oxford.
The Field Reports are each assigned a DOI number, making them searchable and fully quotable as permanent publications. We also adopt the rules of the CC-BY Creative Commons License.
