| Popis: | This article critically examines the multiscalar, transnational, and interdependent nature of deportations with a focus on complex assemblages of power in shaping deportation outcomes inside and beyond the state. The police are the main actor in the security-oriented deportation regime in Finland, playing a key role in the formation of deportation policies by developing new assemblages with different actors in order to advance deportations. While deportations entail multiple forms, methods, and strategies with different degrees of coercion, geopolitical realities and readmission policies contribute to asymmetric outcomes. Even if tight asylum policies are central to the legal production of deportable people, deportations from Finland are mainly enforced to other member states and post-socialist countries, often on other grounds than negative asylum decisions. Despite the small numbers, the deportation regime by default targets all deportable people considered as a problem for the social and national order, rather than manifesting normative ideals of citizenship. |
