But seriously, time to help me overturn mainstream paradigms of justice.
I’m having an interesting time trawling virtual and dusty papers from that fun period of 2002 - 2006 when immigration detention activism was all the rage. Do any readers know of/have any critiques from that time (within loosely ‘anti-detention’ activism/debates) regarding the work of groups like ChilOut and the Circles of Friends?
hey ana - have you read
Perera, S (2006)They give evidence’:Bodies, Borders and the Disappeared. Social Identities. 12:6, 637-656
brilliant. used it in the piece I have coming out in antipode about resisting the space of the exception - which might be useful to thinking about anti-detention activism. I’d be happy to send it on if interested
and hey, thanks for the comment about my acme paper (well, and thanks for reading it!) - it took me until now to figure out how to respond to you - I’d love to talk more about it - want to email me and we can talk off the public boards?
