Semester Herbstsemester 2022
Angebotsmuster unregelmässig
Dozierende Claudia Wilopo (claudia.wilopo@unibas.ch, BeurteilerIn)
Inhalt Why is a person considered “illegal”? What effects does an illegalized residence status have on people’s everyday lives? How do rejected asylum seekers’ presence, actions and legal claims shape migration practice and its enforcement? What can the situation of rejected asylum seekers tell us about our understanding of global migration, borders and citizenship? Possible answers to these questions will be explored and discussed in this class.

This course is an introductory class on illegalized migration in Switzerland. It introduces the legal situation of rejected asylum seekers and draws on practices of rights, exclusion and belonging. It introduces contemporary theories and readings of migration. In class, we will discuss the struggles for economic, social and political inclusion and different nuanced in-between situations of rejected asylum seekers in Switzerland.
Lernziele - Understanding the illegalization process in the Swiss asylum model.
- Acquiring insights on the effects of a negative asylum decision.
- Understanding the complex relationship between illegalization, borders and citizenship.
