- Rules, Paper, Status analyses the complex processes of inclusion and exclusion produced through migrants’ encounters with immigration law in Italy. The book is based on five years’ ethnographic research including 19 months’ intensive fieldwork between 2009 and 2011. It draws on arguments made in several earlier published journal articles. The monograph form allows for these arguments to be expanded and developed. In doing so, it offers new insights into established anthropological debates concerning the state, brokerage, subjectivity and ethics through the lens of a high-profile contemporary social issue, while also providing unique perspectives on debates around legality, illegality and integration.
