Miloš Debnár is Assistant Professor at the Department of Sociology, Doshisha University, in Kyoto, Japan. He lectures on sociology and migration-related issues. Besides his interest in migration and whiteness, he has also published articles on global cities and on the contemporary family.

“Debnár presents to us a fine and well-thought-out qualitative study on European immigrants in contemporary Japan, and successfully questions many superfluous images of white migration to Japan and other countries outside the West. … Debnár’s book is surely the best-available study on current Western migration to Japan. It raises many important issues in migration research about Japan and beyond.” (David Chiavacci, Asian Studies Review, Vol. 15 (1), 2018)“Migration, Whiteness, and Cosmopolitanism: Europeans in Japan offers a fascinating insight into the migration experiences of a heterogenous group of Europeans in contemporary Japan. … Migration, Whiteness, and Cosmopolitanism: Europeans in Japan is an outstanding contribution to the diversifying picture of migration in Japan and the dynamics and possibilities of white migration in general.” (Helena Hof, Social Science Japan Journal, Vol. 20 (2), August, 2017)
