Abstract
![CDATA[At the border, politics risks exposing itself to the impolitical, to a sense of movement beyond its conventional sociopolitical definitions, and to an expression of the political without a sovereign tone. One might say that it is this risk - which is also to say, this chance for a life otherwise - that a migratory politics seeks out. And yet, just as the prospect for movement seems to become ever more limited, such limits are reinforced by nostalgic repitition no less than through the proliferation of borders.]]
