Накратко на български

Здравеопазването в лагерите за бежанци по маршрута към Лампедуза разкрива как тялото и медицината се използват за контрол на границите. Анализът помага да се разбере връзката между политическото управление на миграцията и физическия опит на хората, които пресичат границите на Европа.

Healthcare at the Borders: Managing Camps and Informal Settlements for Refugees and Migrants

The HeBo research program focused on the tension between protecting people at the border and protecting borders, inquiring into the relationship of bodies, healthcare, and borders in the context of the Central Mediterranean route, the deadliest migrant route in the world, and in particular on Lampedusa, one of the crucial sites of contemporary migrations. The prism of body and health allowed to shed new light on the current politics of borders in Europe, the management of migration, and the experience of border crossings. Through HeBo I have managed to develop a new perspective on the dialectic between two sides of the corporeal experience of borders. I focused on the one hand a healthcare apparatus at the border, which serves as a central mechanism of the border regime, with its political dimensions and organizational configurations. On the other hand, I enquired into the experience of the border as it is embodied by the people attempting to cross it. In this light, this research grasped the relationships between borders and bodies, rethinking the notion of embodiment, inquiring into how bodies shape and at the same time are shaped by borders, along with an in-depth account of the role, forms, and political stakes of body and healthcare in the workings of European borders.

Цел на проекта

The management of migrants, refugees and asylum-seekers is one the most complex issues the EU is facing: HeBo aims to tackle it from the perspective of healthcare implementation in migrant camps and informal settlements situated within the European territory. In such spaces, both healthcare actions and their omission assume specific meanings, including the form of border management technology. HeBo thus focuses in particular on the following main research objects: A) the management of migrants in contemporary Europe through the lens of the right to healthcare, B) the relationship between the implementation of the right to healthcare and European border policies, and C) the implementation of the right to health as a translation of the politics of life and the differentiated judgement of lives underlying the current migration management in the EU. While the implementation of healthcare in humanitarian contexts has been largely studied in extra-European countries, it remains understudied for camps and, in particular, informal settlements within the European space. Through ethnographic inquiry on governmental and non-governmental healthcare units, HeBo focuses on three crucial sites across the EU: the islands of Lampedusa (Italy) and Lesbos (Greece), and the area of Calais (France). HeBo will build on the expertise that Dr. Alunni developed in his previous work on healthcare within Roma camps in Italy. Professor Didier Fassin, who will supervise HeBo, is a leading scholar in the field of humanitarianism and on issues of power and health inequalities, and will therefore support Dr. Alunni with his experience. Due to the excellent quality of its infrastructure, scholarly research and staff, the IRIS (Interdisciplinary Research Institute in Social Sciences) at the EHESS (École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales, Paris) will constitute the most appropriate academic environment for Dr. Alunni to become a leading social science scholar in the European Research Area.
