“Earth, who was it who measured and divided you with walls, wire, enclosures?” - Pablo Neruda “No Human is Illegal” - Chants outside the Internment Center for Foreigners, Barcelona (Spain), 11. January 2014 The consul banged on the table and said; “If you’ve got no passport you’re officially dead”: But we are still alive, my dear, but we are still alive. - Auden WH. 1962. “Refugee Blues.” In Collected Shorter Poems 1930- 1944, pp. 256-57. “A specter haunts the world and it is the specter of migration. All the powers of the old world are allied in a merciless operation against it, but the movement is irresistible... The legal and documented movements are dwarfed by clandestine migrations: the borders of national sovereignty are sieves. - Michael Hardt and Antonio Negri in Empire

عن المقرر

Migrations do not just happen - they are produced. Capitalist modernity requires massive displacement that seamlessly supports the free flow of labor in the context of globalization. Mobile subjects are being categorized, sorted and governed in and through the international legal order by initiatives dealing with trafficking, refugees, immigrant labor, sexual morality and border controls. The impact of these different initiatives on cross-border movements is mediated by gender, class, religion, sexual, and marital status. Together we will examine people’s lifeworlds - on the move, in transition, contained, encamped - and study citizenship, division of labor and developmentalism through a critical lens.
