本文探讨了不公正的历史和地理关系如何通过英国谢菲尔德庇护城市网络的活动“呈现”。在此过程中，它暴露了通过接待框架概念化和制定庇护所的局限性，并提出了对“合法存在”的分析，作为解决当代庇护所实践的替代框架。与学术界和激进主义团体专注于热情好客，将公民身份范围扩大到“包括”那些寻求庇护的人相比，我们考虑庇护之城的“次要”政治如何潜在地困扰这种包容性主张所依据的假设。我们对“呈现”不公正现象的“次要”政治的强调对于以具体政治斗争为基础的正义解释非常重要，这与与一些热情好客的描述相关的“未来”正义这一更抽象的概念形成鲜明对比。通过正义的关系性解释来探索庇护所的实践，带来了对合法存在的政治协调解释，这可能会挑战宾主的田园关系以及与好客关系密切相关的庇护所的国家主义框架。我们得出的结论是，这对于反驳“将被排除者纳入进来可以解决庇护“问题”或缓解庇护“危机”的假设非常重要。
This article examines how historical and geographical relations of injustice are “made present” through the activities of the City of Sanctuary network in Sheffield, the UK. In so doing, it exposes the limitations of conceptualizing and enacting sanctuary through the frame of hospitality, and proposes an analytics of “rightful presence” as an alternative frame with which to address contemporary sanctuary practices. In contrast to a body of scholarship and activism that has focused on hospitality as extending the bounds of citizenship to “include” those seeking refuge, we consider how the “minor” politics of City of Sanctuary potentially trouble the assumptions on which such claims to inclusion rest. Our emphasis on the “minor” politics of “making present” injustices is important in bringing to bear an account of justice that is grounded in concrete political struggles, in contrast to the more abstract notion of a justice “to come,” associated with some accounts of hospitality. To explore sanctuary practices through a relational account of justice brings to bear a politically attuned account of rightful presence, which potentially challenges pastoral relations of guest–host and the statist framing of sanctuary with which relations of hospitality are intimately bound. This is important, we conclude, in countering the assumption that including the excluded solves the “problem,” or relieves the “crisis,” of asylum.
