Law, Migration and Precarious Labour Ecotechnics of the Social
Auteur : Tataryn Anastasia
Providing a radical new approach to labour migration, this book challenges the prevailing legal and political construction of the figure of the irregular migrant labourer, whilst at the same time reimagining this irregularity as the basis of an alternative, post-capitalist, sociality.
The text draws on the work of contemporary philosopher Jean-Luc Nancy, and more specifically his term ?ecotechnics?, in order to examine how economic, political, and juridical norms deny the full legal status of certain people who are deemed to be irregular. This ostensible irregularity is revealed as a regular feature of labour market practice, and a necessary support for the conceptual foundations of capitalist legality. As this book shows, however, this legality ? and with it, the technological subordination of life to the circulation of capital as if this were the only possibility for our being in the world ? is not insurmountable. The book?s consideration of the figure of the irregular migrant labourer comes to provide an alternative basis for reimagining our relationship not only with migration and with labour itself, but ultimately with each other.
This powerful analysis of contemporary labour migration is of considerable interest to legal and political theorists, philosophers, labour lawyers, migration experts, and others with theoretical, political, or policy interests in this area.
