Abstract:
As the current burning topic of border closures demonstrates-whether they result from the Covid-19 pandemic or the construction of anti-migrant walls-in today's world, borders are making a comeback. My experience as a researcher in France's Calais Jungle, a migrant encampment situated close to the border with the United Kingdom-as well as the case study of a refugee patient seen in psychanalytic consultation in Paris-serves to demonstrate how the experience of borders enduringly affects the psyches and bodies of migrants. This article examines the close relationship between psychic life and geopolitical life, as well as the way in which the border experience desubjectivizes as much as it opens up the possibility of resubjectivation.
