Abstract

This article explores the relationship between social imaginaries and mobility justice, examining how borders can be 'de-presentified' through alternative conceptualizations of movement and belonging. The analysis draws on ethnographic research to understand how different actors envision and practice mobility beyond current restrictive frameworks.

Additional Information

This article examines how social imaginaries around borders and mobility can be transformed to envision more just forms of movement and belonging, challenging the current restrictive frameworks that govern human mobility.
