The Handbook of Displacement
Evacuated to Death
Evacuation is a fairly empty and technical concept often used to describe moments of emergency governance when peoples are moved away from harm. It was also a key code word, though, within the Nazi deportation and killing of Europe’s Jews. How could evacuation be deployed in these contexts and for these purposes? What is so crucial here is not simply that the practices of the Holocaust were termed evacuations, however inappropriate, misleading, a…
Blurred lines

We do so by exploring how the…

It draws in vivid detail on studies o…

Anticipation, Materiality, Event
In this article we explore how the aerial mobilities disrupted by the Icelandic ash cloud were remarkably contingent upon a series of systems and technologies of anticipation and speculation that sit within wider nested logics of future‐oriented or ‘anticipatory’ governance. Drawing together flexible and distributed forms of (self)‐governance such as insurance and coordination, alongside other technologies and logics of anticipation, we explore h…
