Using the\u0000concept of ontological security, it explores the strategies devised by the new citizens\u0000and their former refugee selves to negotiate a normative and stable identity in Tanzania,\u0000a country with a postcolonial history of contested citizenship and depoliticized\u0000ethnicity. Our argument is that the fluidity of identity, when associated with mobility,\u0000is vilified by policy-makers and given insufficient attention in the literatures on ethnicity\u0000and refugees in Africa, yet is important for generating a sense of belonging and a\u0000meaningful life away from a troubled and violent past. This fluidity of identity offers a\u0000significant mechanism for belonging even after the acquisition of formal citizenship.","PeriodicalId":52702,"journal":{"name":"Migration and Society","volume":"30 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75069909","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As a result of these efforts, some cities, including\u0000Toronto, Montreal, Vancouver, and Hamilton, have declared themselves “sanctuary\u0000cities,” and campaigns centered around this concept have emerged in other localities\u0000across the country. In this article, the authors—who are themselves involved in sanctuary\u0000city organizing—reflect on the concept, and offer a critical assessment of these\u0000organizing efforts. We provide a brief history of these campaigns in Canada, discuss\u0000the impact of these policies in cities where they have been adopted, reflect on the types\u0000of politics that inform notions of sanctuary, hospitality, solidarity, and resistance, and\u0000offer some lessons for moving forward.","PeriodicalId":52702,"journal":{"name":"Migration and Society","volume":"11 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88611906","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Focusing\u0000on the interactions between local faith actors and refugees and local faith actors\u0000and international organizations, the lenses of hospitality and hostility are used to analyze\u0000the tensions between these types of actors. Through a review of the literature and\u0000interviews with 21 key informants, I show that processes of marginalization occur to\u0000the extent that local faith actors lose their positions of host to the dominance of the\u0000international humanitarian system, and feelings of hostility ensue.

It asks how they live with constant\u0000threat and surveillance. It highlights their strategies of invisibility as well as their\u0000generous contributions to their communities. It argues that these acts of “community\u0000caretaking” are acts of “hospitality” that demonstrate their “good citizenship.” Every\u0000time undocumented people conduct “know your rights” workshops, they model citizenship\u0000in action. The article also explores the other side of the daily equation to stay\u0000safe and spotlights undocumented people’s encounters with law enforcement agents.\u0000Agents do not act in lockstep, but rather make decisions in split seconds that can\u0000change undocumented people’s lives forever. Drawing from ethnographic field research\u0000in migrant communities inside the “100-mile border zone” as well as deep in the US\u0000interior, the article argues that “border policing” happens far from the border.","PeriodicalId":52702,"journal":{"name":"Migration and Society","volume":"63 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79508883","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
