What does it mean when humanitarianism is the response to death,
injury and suffering at the border? This book interrogates the
politics of humanitarian responses to border violence and unequal
mobility, arguing that such responses mask underlying injustices,
depoliticise violent borders and bolster liberal and paternalist
approaches to suffering. Focusing on the diversity of actors
involved in humanitarian assistance alongside the times and spaces
of action, the book draws a direct line between privileges of
movement and global inequalities of race, class, gender and
disability rooted in colonial histories and white supremacy and
humanitarian efforts that save lives while entrenching such
inequalities. Based on eight years of research with border police,
European Union officials, professional humanitarians, and
grassroots activists in Europe's borderlands, including Italy and
Greece, the book argues that this kind of saving lives builds,
expands and deepens already restrictive borders and exclusive and
exceptional identities through what the book calls humanitarian
borderwork.
