Normalizing “Gaza” in Jerusalem: Toponymic Abjection and Ontological (In)Security in the Israeli–Palestinian Conflict
This article extends the “material turn” in ontological security (OS) studies to include the OS politics of toponyms (place names). It does so by critically unveiling a crucial overlooked aspect of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict: The process whereby “Gaza Street” in Jerusalem, a “benign toponym” with a functional meaning, became an “abject toponym”—an ambiguous object that elicits anxiety and ontological insecurity since it blurs the boundaries…
Conflict, gender and ontological security-seeking between Eritrea and Tel Aviv
The proliferating research in ontological security (OS) studies explores how irregular situations of 'radical disjuncture' remove the protective cocoon of routinised trust relations that enables the actors to 'bracket out' daily threats and dangers. Following this loss of trust, the actors perform a variety of OS-seeking strategies in their attempts to re-establish their lost trust in themselves and their surroundings. But how do disempowered act…
What It Means to (Mis)Trust: Forced Migration, Ontological (In)Security, and the Unrecognized Political Psychology of the Israeli‐Lebanese Conflict
What does it mean to search for trust—the constitutive element of feeling ontologically secure—in the context of protracted conflict, trauma, and forced migration? This article addresses this key question in ontological security (OS) studies in International Relations (IR) by analyzing an unrecognized consequence of the Israeli‐Lebanese conflict: a Lebanese community of forced migrants created overnight on Israeli premises due to Israel's unilate…
A Simmelian approach to space in world politics
Assumptions regarding space and spatiality exist in all major theoretical traditions in international relations, from realism to constructivism, but the mutual constitution of space and social interaction in the study of world politics requires further conceptual development in its own right. This article suggests a preliminary research agenda for the study of space and social relations in IR by lending insight from Georg Simmel’s classical socio…
Van Gennep Meets Ontological (In)Security: A Processual Approach to Ontological Security in Migration
This article utilizes van Gennep's neglected theory of territorial passages to answer two key questions in the study of ontological security (OS) in migration. First, why do the members of the receiving society lose their perceived sense of OS in face of a mass of strangers arriving at their gates? Second, how, if at all, do they attempt to reconstitute it while incorporating the strangers into their world? Following the recent call within OS stu…
The sociology of the limit: Reformulating the question of migration through Van Gennep
This article situates Van Gennep's Rites de passage in the contemporary field of migration studies, arguing that his second and third chapters allow us to reformulate how we conceptualize contemporary migratory encounters. Rather than reading Van Gennep's classical text through the prevalent Turnerian lens of 'liminality' in migration, I reread it as offering a conceptualization of migration as deriving from society's establishment on a delimited…
Power and Examination: A Critique of Citizenship Tests
Terror threats and fear of ethnic and religious outbursts, combined with the aspirations of governments to better integrate immigrants into society, have led a growing number of Western states to adopt the practice of citizenship tests as a prerequisite for full citizenship. These tests require the immigrant, usually of non-Western origin, to demonstrate advanced language skills as well as comprehensive civic and cultural knowledge of the host so…
