This book focuses on processes of bordering and governmentality around the Greek border islands from the declaration of a ârefugee crisisâ in the summer of 2015 up until the emergence of the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020. The chapters trace the implementation of the EU migration hotspot approach across space and time, from the maritime Aegean border to the islands (Lesvos and Samos) and from the islands to the Greek mainland. They do so through the lenses of peoplesâ refusal to succumb to categories that get reified as identities through the hotspot approach, such as that of the âdeserving refugeeâ, the âundeserving economic migrantâ, the âtranslatorâ, the âvolunteerâ, the âtouristâ and the âresearcherâ. This book explores how âmigration managementâ in Greece from 2015-2020, along with the reshaping of space and time, reconfigured peoplesâ relationships with one another and ultimately with oneâs self.
