Central to these legacies is the demand - reproduced in humanitarianism and beyond - that queer migrants render their private lives visible to receive hospitality, recognition, or care.

Overview
The governance of queer migration and asylum in Europe has been shaped by colonial legacies of racial, sexual, and gendered othering. Central to these legacies is the demand - reproduced in humanitarianism and beyond - that queer migrants render their private lives visible to receive hospitality, recognition, or care.
Engaging an unruly archive of film, documentary, photography, and performance art, this book explores narratives that refuse or complicate this demand for visibility. Arguing that listening to hauntings and other absences can reveal novel insights into the politics of visibility, the book contributes to debates across border studies, queer theory, and postcolonial studies.
