Precarious Work, Immigration, and Governance
Abstract
Capitalist liberal democratic states are undergoing profound changes. Welfare states are being cut back, inequalities are widening, and unemployment is growing. The problem of poverty in wealthy countries is, we are led to believe, seriously exacerbated by immigration. This chapter moves beyond a logic which sees migrants as essentially competitors with citizens for the privileges of membership and social welfare through the concept ‘the community of value’. This is a concept defined from the outside through the social exclusion of migrants, that is the ‘Non-Citizens’, but also defined from the inside by the ‘Failed Citizens’. Failed citizens are those who it is imagined do not live up to national ideals. Bringing the migrant non-citizen and the failed citizen together highlights the relationship between them and the parallels in their governance. It puts migration and citizenship on centre stage because of its relevance to everybody, not merely because of the particular suffering endured by migrants.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
