Belonging and non-belonging: feminist and intersectional perspectives on citizenship, asylum and integration

Abstract

This panel reflects on the analytical value of intersectionality for critically interrogating migration and asylum governance in Europe. An intersectional lens reveals the ways in which migrant identities are categorized and constructed along intersecting axes of inequality. The papers in this panel explore how racialized and gendered mechanisms and discourses are used in legislation and debates to justify who is in- and excluded, who belongs to the nation or deserves to belong, or to legitimate increasingly strict responses to asylum seekers. Papers also explore the construction and contestation over citizenship rights, the discourses on integration and belonging and how this subjectivates particular groups of women.
