This open access book applies insights from the anthropology of
hospitality to illuminate ethnographic accounts of migrant
reception in various parts of the Mediterranean. The contributors
ground the idea and practice of hospitality in concrete
ethnographic settings and challenge how the casual usage of
Derridean or Kantian notions of hospitality can blur the boundaries
between social scales and between metaphor and practice. Host-guest
relations are multiplied through pregnancy and childbirth, and new
forms of hospitality emerge with the need to offer mortuary
practices for dead strangers, helping to illuminate the spatial and
scalar dimensions of morality and politics in Mediterranean migrant
reception.
