Approaching mobility, precarity, and citizenship at once generates a critical exploration of the points of contact and friction and the potential politics of commonality between citizens and noncitizens. What does modern citizenship mean in a world of citizens, denizens, and noncitizens living under common conditions of labor and social precarity? Precarity and Belonging interrogates such binaries as citizen/noncitizen, and “legal”/“illegal” to explore the fluidity of the spectra of belonging.
