The Ambidextrous State: vulnerability, victimhood and mobility

Prof. Bridget Anderson | University of Bristol | United Kingdom

Vulnerability underpins many distinctions between migrants, including the migrant/refugee and the migrant worker/victim of trafficking distinctions. In this paper I will first examine how vulnerability is used by states, asylum seekers and migrants to both justify and undermine rights claims. I will then examine two consequences of this move to vulnerability. Firstly, it associates vulnerability with deservingness and in this it fits with a broader pattern that blurs the distinction between justice and deservingness for citizens as well as migrants- for example in relation to welfare rights. Secondly, it obscures the role of states, including by representing law as a response to vulnerability rather than as deeply implicated in the creation of vulnerabilities.

Prof. Bridget Anderson

Bridget Anderson is the Director of Migration Mobilities Bristol and Professor of Migration, Mobilities and Citizenship. She takes as her starting point that the ‹migrant› and the ‹citizen› and the differences between them are constructed in law and in social and political practice. Research also plays an important role in this, raising important ethical, epistemological and political questions. She is interested in the relation between migration, race, and nation, historically and in the contemporary world. Her work explores the relations between migration, temporalities and future making claims, with a particular focus on precarity, labour market flexibilities and citizenship rights.
