Abstract

Refugees, the human waste of the global frontier-land, are the 'outsiders incarnate', the absolute outsiders, outsiders everywhere and out of place everywhere except in places that are themselves out of place - the 'nowhere places' that appear on the maps used by ordinary humans on their travels. (Zygmunt Bauman 2004 80)
