The In-Between Spaces of Asylum and Migration: A Participatory Visual Approach: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "The In-Between Spaces of Asylum and Migration: A Participatory Visual Approach" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

Based on ethnographic research with asylum seekers living in a direct provision centre in Ireland, and comprising participatory visual methods, this work offers a unique examination of the direct provision system that analyses the tensions between exclusion and marginalization, and involvement and engagement with local communities. It gives voice to the perspectives of residents themselves through an analysis of photographic images and texts created by the participants of the project, providing fresh insight into the everyday experiences of living in these liminal zones between borders, and the various forms of attachment, engagement and belonging that they create. While the books empirical focus is on the Irish context, the analysis sheds light on broader policies and experiences of exclusion and the increasing number of liminal spaces between and within borders in which people seeking protection wait. Situated at the intersection of social anthropology, human geography and participatory arts and visual culture, it will appeal to scholars and students focusing on migration and asylum, ethnicity and integration, as well as those with an interest in participatory and visual research methods.

1.1 Direct Provision in Ireland and the Global Politics of Exclusion

In September 2018,). They are simultaneously inside and outside: inside a system which controls their everyday life and decisions, and yet kept outside of mainstream society in Ireland, prevented from integrating through a series of deliberate measures.

Direct Provision centres in Ireland have been described as total institutions by scholars, drawing on Goffman (Loyal ). Many people living in the Direct Provision system are consumed by the uncertainty and boredom of this in-between institutional existence, and for many, this is coupled with loss, trauma and the sense of dislocation and confusion that accompanies being uprooted suddenly from ones place and life and being flung headlong into an alien world, as evoked by John Bergers description of the experience of migration:

Emigrer signifie toujours dmanteler le centre du monde, et lamnager dans un monde confus, dsorganise et fragmentaire. (Berger : unpaginated)

[To migrate always means to dismantle the centre of the world and to recreate it in a confusing, disorganized and fragmented worldmy translation]

Mental illness and depression are rife (Chineyre ), the uncertainty exacerbated by shared and often cramped living accommodation, often with strangers, being unable to cook or to choose when to eat and being unable to make the choices and decisions that most people in Ireland take for granted. Long periods of waiting for claims to be processed lead not only to an agonizing and wasted existence for those waiting , but to enormous costs for the Irish state, which pays private companies to accommodate and cater for these people, at large profit.
