  • After the Red Passport: Towards an Anthropology of the Everyday Geopolitics of Entrapment in the EU’S ‘Immediate Outside’
    After the red passport: towards an anthropology of the everyday geopolitics of entrapment in the EU’s ‘immediate outside’ Stef Jansen Manchester University Suggesting building bricks for an anthropology of everyday geopolitics, this text analyses affective engagements with regulation, here of cross-border mobility. Following the logic of the regulation that constitutes them, I conceptualize zones of humiliating entrapment through documentary requirements – experienced by citizens of Bosnia-Herzegovina and Serbia – as the EU’s shrinking ‘immediate outside’. Using ethnography, I embed bodily experiences in visa queues in people’s engagements with changing Eurocentric spatiotemporal rankings, refracting this entrapment against the privileges of certain foreigners (such as me) and against their own remembered mobility with the ‘red’ Yugoslav passport. I propose that complementing the dominant focus on the role of (national) identity politics in geopolitical affect with one on regulation and ranking is a central task for a critical anthropology of everyday geopolitics in peripheries. In 2008, some friends and I were having a beer in Sarajevo when an acquaintance of theirs joined our table. He asked me what had brought me to Sarajevo and I gave him my well-worn, one-minute reply. He then asked me:‘So you chose to be here?’ Rising to the bait of his irony I replied that, yes, I had been lucky enough to develop my research project myself and that I enjoyed being there, adding in jest: ‘Nikomenetjeradaprovodimvrijemeovdje’ [‘Nobody is forcing me to spend time here’]. At that moment my friend intervened without blinking an eyelid:‘Da je tako, bio bi Bosanac!’ [‘If that were the case (i.e.
