The Special Issue aims to investigate the form of bordering and debordering experienced by refugees and asylum seekers across time. Refugees and asylum seekers are spatially and temporally “stuck” due to the fact that they often find themselves trapped in the legal and social limbo of the reception system. While waiting to receive a status – and, consequently, a residence permit–, they are forced to adapt to severely limited possibilities of mobility, employment, integration, and social life. Viewed in these terms, the waiting translates into a form of “entrapment” that operates both within and outside the reception system.

Abstract
The Special Issue aims to investigate the form of bordering and debordering experienced by refugees and asylum seekers across time. Refugees and asylum seekers are spatially and temporally “stuck” due to the fact that they often find themselves trapped in the legal and social limbo of the reception system. While waiting to receive a status – and, consequently, a residence permit–, they are forced to adapt to severely limited possibilities of mobility, employment, integration, and social life. Viewed in these terms, the waiting translates into a form of “entrapment” that operates both within and outside the reception system.File in questo prodotto:
