A Dislocated Territorial Order? Introducing the Asylum 'Problem' -- Challenging Managerial Operations: Developing a Discursive Theory of Securitisation -- Moving to Europe: Charting the Emergence of Exclusionary Asylum Discourse -- Restricting Contestations: Exclusionary Narratives and the Dominance of Restriction -- Interception as Criminalisation: The Extension of Interdictive Controls --Dispersal as Abjectification:The Diffusion of Punitive Controls -- Sovereign Power, Abject Spaces and Resistance: Contending Accounts of Asylum -- Rethinking Asylum, Rethinking Citizenship: Moving Beyond Exclusionary Politics.

The issue of asylum has become the focus of intense debate over recent years, much of which is organized around questions regarding how farand in what ways increasing numbers of asylum seekers pose a 'problem'or a 'threat' to 'host' states. This book steps back from this debate in order to consider how, why and with what effects such questions havecome to take such a hold in UK and EU contexts. Critiquing the securitisation and criminalisation of asylum seeking, it analyses recent policy developments in relation to their wider historical, political and European contexts, and argues thatthe UK response effectively produces asylum seekers as scapegoats for dislocations that are caused by the shifting boundaries of the nation state. Any move beyond such an exclusionary politics, it claims, requires a distinctly political re-thinking of asylum, as well as of citizenship more widely.
