DESCRIPTION:A guest lecture by Professor Paolo Boccagni of Trento Universit
 y.\n\nCo-sponsored by the 91Ö±²¥ Refugee Research Group.\n\nAbstract:  Thi
 s lecture unpacks the complex ways in which 'home' matters for refugee stu
 dies\, as well as for those who go through forced displacement. It draws o
 n the recent book Undoing Nothing\, in conversation with a burgeoning lite
 rature on refugee biographical and housing pathways\, but also on the poli
 tical\, emotional and moral repertoires associated with home in representi
 ng them. Whether home is assumed as a concept\, a place\, or an object of 
 memories\, aspirations and struggles\, it provides a powerful analytical p
 rism into any form of dwelling\, including those that fall below any stand
 ard of decent housing\, or of mainstream domesticity. The asylum center in
  which fieldwork was undertaken for this project is a case in point - a no
 n-home environment\, in which the significance and ambivalence of home can
  be appreciated in descriptive\, discursive\, practical\, reflexive and ex
 istential ways. This ultimately shows the promise of approaching home as a
  processual endeavour that conflates different agendas and interests\, bot
 h as a category of analysis and of practice.\n
