- Title
Migrant Journeys of Loss, Uncertainty, and Hope.
- Authors
Savaş, Özlem
- Abstract
Is uncertainty, often brought about by loss, collapse, interruption, or disturbance in life, an entirely negative state that must be resolved as soon and as fully as possible by resettlement? Or, can we view uncertainty and loss as affective states that might open up new possibilities for friendships, solidarities, collectivities, and hope? As a response to Carla J. Maier's 'The Table and the Dancer' this essay attends to affective and emotional registers of migration. It attempts to rethink the senses of loss, uprootedness, and uncertainty as possible sources for affinities and hope, with a particular focus on the new migration from Turkey.
