‘Nothing will ever be the same again’. Personal commitment and political subjectivation in the 20 February Movement in Morocco
Publication . Vacchiano, Francesco; Afailal, Hafsa
Based on an analysis of the stories of engagement of young activists who took
part in the 20 February Movement in Morocco, this contribution explores the
process of individual transformation that occurred during the experience of
activism. We use the concept of political subjectivation to discuss the
succession of moments of rupture and re-semanticisation, the new ethical
configurations generated by the experience of activism and their long-term
consequences. This contribution is part of an ethnographic study that has
accompanied the evolution of the protests from 2011, carried out by the two
authors first independently and, from 2017, within the framework of the
‘Globally Sensitive: Revolt, Citizenship, and Expectations for the Future in
North Africa’ project.

Fragmented citizenship: contemporary infrastructures of mobility containment along two migratory routes
Publication . Esposito, Francesca; Murtaza, Alí; Peano, Irene; Vacchiano, Francesco
Several authors have contended recently that the rationality of contemporary migration control can be most adequately grasped by the notion of ‘containment’, conceived as the redirection of people’s autonomous movement into restricted and defined pathways. Following this idea, this article proceeds in three steps. First, it proposes an analysis of the ‘infrastructures’ through which containment is enforced, showing the plural dimensions (regulatory, humanitarian, commercial, social) of which they are composed. Second, analysing two cases of transnational mobility towards (and across) the EU, it shows the effect of containment on people’s spatial and existential trajectories. And third, through the analysis of such cases, it contends that the ultimate effect of containment is the fragmentation of citizenship into a variety of intermediate ‘latitudinal’ positions characterised by partial and conditional access to rights, which are functional to several forms of exploitation, including labour but also profit extraction through the operations of containment infrastructures themselves.
