Encountering authority and avoiding trouble
Drawing on data from seven European countries (Czech Republic, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy and the United Kingdom), this article seeks to identify how young migrant men engage with authority and avoid conflict against a backdrop of increasing hostility towards migrants in many European countries. As this article contends, even those with permanent residency status in the host country often find themselves having to justify their legi…
Not apologising for a community
This article considers the experiences of four groups of young people (from Germany, Estonia, Russia and the UK) whose ‘mode of being’ is reduced or distorted in different ways as a result of misrecognition or stigmatisation. It argues that the responses young people make to this form of social subordination are enabled or constrained by the recognition status – misrecognition, absence of recognition or stigmatisation – they experience. It demons…
Not Entitled to Talk
This article considers the relationship between (mis)recognition, inequality and social activism through the lens of young Muslims' response to their positioning as 'suspect communities'. It draws on qualitative empirical research to suggest that the institutionalisation of misrecognition, including through the preventative ('Prevent') arm of UK counter-terrorism strategy, may mobilise young Muslims to resist 'suspect' status and make claims to t…
Enacting intersectional multilayered citizenship
Focusing on the institutional aspects of the Kurdish women’s movement in Turkey since the 1990s the article shows how it established a consciousness within the Kurdish national movement that gender equality is a cornerstone of democracy and ethnic rights. We frame this through theories of enacting intersectional multilayered citizenship and identify three key interventions: autonomous women’s assemblies, women’s quotas in pro-Kurdish rights parti…
Barriers for Highly Qualified A8 Immigrants in the UK Labour Market
The number of migrants arriving in the UK from the EU accession countries has been higher than projected. The evidence indicates that they have been over-represented in low-paid and low-skilled jobs. This is arguably transitory and there should be good prospects of upward mobility. Over-qualification among A8 migrants, measured using the Annual Population Survey data, is examined in this article. The findings show that A8 migrants have been subje…
Kurdish Hizbullah in Turkey
Mehmet Kurt’s ethnographic study on the Kurdish Hizbullah in Turkey is remarkable in many ways. His very rare access to a close-knit politically violent community, while remaining cognizant of the
