Abstract

This essay debates some thesis on immigration generally and on clandestine immigration particularly: 1) the best way to discuss the question of immigration is by using Foucault’s concept of device, which allows to consider the debate on this question as being a part of the mechanism of control on immigration itself. 2) There is a first difficulty in defining the concept of immigrant. 3) In the debate on immigration one can distinguish two official discourses, i.e., the control discourse and the adaptation discourse, which hide an attitude of rejection of the Other. 4) The debate establishes an ontological distinction between immigrants and citizens in the sense of a political ontology that aims at defining political community through the opposition to the Other.
