The architecture of exclusion

by Chris Bertram on November 11, 2019

I have [another piece on the LRB blog](https://www.lrb.co.uk/blog/2019/november/architecture-of-exclusion) about the deaths of migrants in Essex recently. It was important to register a correction because early information about the nationalities of the dead was incorrect, but it also gives an opportunity to say something more about why migrants have to use people smugglers if they want to escape persecution or seek out opportunities in wealthy democracies.

Evergreen musical comment on the subject, Justin Sullivan chanting “Another Imperial Day.”
