Modern & Contemporary France podcasts

The BUMIDOM

In this podcast, which accompanies Issue 33, 3, a special issue entitled 'The BUMIDOM and its Legacy: An Interdisciplinary Approach', hosts Ben Dalton and Maria Tomlinson introduce a lively discussion in French between one of the issue's guest-editors, Antonia Wimbush (University of Melbourne), and Jennifer Boum Make (Georgetown University). These experts on the BUMIDOM discuss the articles and the legacy of this French state agency, which organised emigration from French overseas departments and territories to metropolitan France chiefly in the 1960s and 70s.
