摘要
Corporeal choreography can capture the kind of political agency needed for a transformative politics to emerge. Interviews with failed asylum seekers exemplify negotiations and articulations of agency through movements in a bodyspace we call the interzone. In the explorations of the ways and implications of failed asylum seekers moving between body politics and the political bodyspace Jean-Luc Nancy's ideas of the ontological body, politics and the political are utilized. We suggest that by paying attention to bodies and their movement in living everyday life as failed asylees the spatial gaps and openings can be scrutinized and the functioning of asylum politics as usual disrupted.
