For all its history of intersecting empires, the Balkans has been
rarely framed as a global site of race and coloniality. This, as
Piro Rexhepi argues in White Enclosures is not surprising, given
the perception of the Balkans as colorblind and raceless, a project
that spans post-Ottoman racial formations, transverses Socialist
modernity and is negotiated anew in the process of postsocialist
Euro-Atlantic integration. Connecting severed colonial histories
from the vantage point of body politic, Rexhepi turns to the
borderland zones of the Balkans to trace past and present
geopolitical attempts of walling whiteness. From efforts to
straighten the sexualities of post-Ottoman Muslim subjects, to
Yugoslav nonaligned solidarities between Muslims of the second and
third world, to Roma displacement and contemporary emergence of
refugee carceral technologies along the Balkan Route, Rexhepi
points not only to the epistemic erasures that maintain the fantasy
of whiteness but also to the disruption emanating from the
solidarities between queer- and transpeople that fold the Balkans
back into global efforts to resist the politics of racial
capitalism.
