Miguel Morillas
Postdoctoral Scholar, Education
Bio
Miguel Morillas is a sociologist and organizational researcher working at the intersection of migration and organization studies. He is based at SCANCOR and works with Professor Tomás R. Jiménez in the Department of Sociology. His research focuses on how institutions such as employers, organizations, and states recognize migrants’ skills and life trajectories, and how migrants, in turn, reshape those institutions. Miguel is also interested in a range of organizational processes: exclusion, worth valuation, meaning-making and, most recently, memory. He holds a PhD in Management and Organization from the Stockholm School of Economics.
