- The book provides an in-depth analysis of the nexus between migration movements and the revolution in the Mediterranean in the aftermath of the Arab Uprisings. Building on a Foucauldian perspective, it coins the notion of “spaces of governmentality” to designate both the political spaces that migrants opened up and the restructuring of borders in response to that. The book is the outcome of a long research conducted between 2011 and 2013 in Tunisia and in Italy. It employs several different types of analysis and elaborates theoretical insights about how revolutionary uprisings and migration movements generated new political subjects.
