Abstract

Asylum seekers in Ireland have been incarcerated in Direct Provision centres since 1999. This article proposes that their existence is disavowed and hidden from public view, continuing the history of the disavowal by church, state and society in Ireland of people incarcerated in church institutions and psychiatric asylums. Disavowing and repressing phenomena such as taboo sexuality, mental health, migration, asylum and racialization has the habit of returning to haunt, in the manner of Freud's return of the repressed. The article explores the plight of asylum seekers as the most recent link in the chain in Ireland's practice of disavowing its sexual and other deviants and unwanted populations. I conclude by arguing that despite their racialization and incarceration, asylum seekers in Ireland are agents of active resistance. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

17. Ireland: Racial state and crisis racism?

Abstract

PUBLISHED, This article theorises the state as central to the construction of racism in the Republic of Ireland, which, since the 1990s economic boom, has become an in-migration destination. State racism culminated in the 2004 Citizenship Referendum, in which, at a majority of four to one, the Irish electorate voted for the removal of birth right citizenship to children of migrants. Based on Goldberg?s theory of the racial state, which, in constructing homogeneity, obscures existing heterogeneities, and on Foucault?s theory of biopolitics, leading to the state supposedly caring for the population through a series of technologies aiming to regulate and manage racial diversities, the article examines recent developments in Ireland?s immigration and asylum policies. The debates around the Citizenship Referendum are theorized as constructing what Balibar terms `crisis racism?, blaming migrants for the problems of the system.
