Abstract

Abstract In this article we explore universes of circulations, flows and mobilities along two interconnected axes. We propose a reflection on the dynamics of managing bodies and populations in transit through categories that regulate journeys and stays, and produce (mal)adaptations. In complementary form, we also question the classificatory processes that pervade the experiences of migrants when they enter distinct regimes of producing difference and are racialized, ethnicized and generified. Our hypothesis is that the connection between these two axes involves the production, at diverse levels, of ‘out of place’ bodies.

Summary

Andréa Lobo Igor José de Renó Machado

Circulations, flows and mobilities constitute an important part of the debates in contemporary social sciences. The approaches taken to the connections between diverse social fields at global level have the potential to renew our conceptions about culture and society and, more recently, about bodies, places and their interactions This Vibrant dossier discusses universes in which people circulate, exploring two essential and interconnected aspects: (1) the management of bodies and populations in transit through categories that regulate journeys and stays, and produce (mal)adaptations; (2) the classificatory processes that pervade the experiences of migrants when they enter distinct regimes of production of difference and are racialized, ethnicized and generified.
