Parenting the Republic: Experimental Scaling and the Reimagination of Institutional Authority from the Urban Margins
In marginalized neighborhoods in northeast Paris, community organizers and local government actors have taken to a positive parenting method to reconsider questions of authority in post-colonial France. What was initially a capacity-building program for disadvantaged parents was gradually turned into an experimental ethical field. Finding in it an expert-sanctioned moral framework that resonates with their own critiques, they grasped it as prefig…

L’État par l’intime. Techniques et ambiguïtés du gouvernement par l’intimité en Europe
En Europe, de nouveaux programmes de protection sociale illustrent un mouvement actuel : la tentative de gouverner par la communauté. Par la mise en perspective de trois enquêtes de terrain réalisées avec des professionnel·les et des bénévoles du soutien à la parentalité à Amsterdam, Milan et Paris, nous montrons comment cette forme de gouvernement est mise en œuvre et comment elle fait émerger de nouveaux enchevêtrements aux effets incontrôlable…

Scissoring? I can do that!’ Play, alternative place-making and nested sexual normativities in Dutch women’s amateur football
This article addresses the way in which female players of “traditional” amateur football clubs in the Netherlands manage to create their team as “open” and “inclusive”. Drawing on the notion of playfulness and linguistic perspectives on humour, we show that women players engage in shared sexual joking and embodied performances that centre around gendered and sexual stereotypes and norms. In contrast to a reading of the persistence of norms as lim…
‘Work!’ Ballroom discipline, faking, and the production of queer freedom
This article gives insight into the ballroom scene in the Netherlands, in which queers of colour find a safe space that enables what they call individual ‘transformation’ towards becoming their ‘free-selves’. During lessons and club events called ‘balls’ their performances are constantly evaluated and corrected, as co-students, teachers, audiences, and judges at the end of the runway exhort them to ‘work’ and ‘fake it’. Understanding ballroom as …
Circuiting parents’ voice: Parenting discussion groups and institutional healing in northeast Paris
The discussion group is a common form of parenting support offered by associations in the pluri-ethnic, working-class neighborhoods of northeast Paris. Situated in a larger formation of voice that hails marginalized parents to speak, professionals engage with these discussion groups as potential social ‘transistors’: simultaneously circuiting parents’ voice inwards to restore parents’ agentive capacities and amplifying it outwards into an audible…
Contested Multiplicities and Mobile Monologues: The Poetics and Politics of Conviviality in the Plural
In Antwerp, everyday interactions in ethno-racially diverse neighbourhoods have become the object of polarized debate and policy interventions that posit ‘living together’ as an ideal. Residents routinely use living together as a frame to assess themselves and their neighbourhood. They also bring divergent vernacular moral practices and sensory experiences to everyday interactions across difference. This complicates understandings of conviviality…
Intimate States: Techniques and Entanglements of Governing through Community in Europe
Across Europe, new welfare programs exemplify attempts to govern through community. This article asks how such governing through community is done in practice. Drawing on comparative insights from fieldwork with parenting support professionals and volunteers in Amsterdam, Milan, and Paris, we document not only how governing through community is actually done but also what new forms of entanglements and unruly effects such governing creates. We ar…
Ordinary Icons: Public Discourses and Everyday Lives in an Anxious Europe
Across Europe, ethnically diverse neighborhoods figure as key sites in racialized public debates that imagine the nation as white and nonwhite citizens as foreign to the body politic. Drawing on research in Antwerp and Amsterdam, we examine how public discourses come to shape the lives of residents in such iconic sites. We propose the notion of ordinary iconic figures as a way to understand these connections. Ordinary iconic figures represent gen…
The other neighbour paradox: Fantasies and frustrations of ‘living together’ in Antwerp
In this paper, Vollebergh investigates the commitment to establishing intercultural encounters by so-called ‘active’ white Flemish residents in Antwerp, and their perpetual disappointment with the responses of their neighbours of orthodox Jewish and Moroccan backgrounds. Instead of viewing these relationships either as a product of culturalist social cohesion policies, or as a vernacular ethical achievement that escapes culturalist politics, she …
