ABSTRACT
This conclusion presents some closing thoughts on the key concepts discussed in the preceding chapters of this book. The book argues that the modalities of political subjectivity may be produced directly or collaterally, as some citizens are assumed to be non-citizens with significant everyday and symbolic effects. As European citizens, Romanian Roma experience a distinct form of deportability. Identified as illegitimate outsiders despite their formal right to reside in Italy as European citizens, their deportability stems from the vulnerabilities induced by measures to facilitate their removal from Italy. The encounter describes how individuals come together with other individuals, or even come together with legislation or policy. The book considers the coming-together of individuals in place as always also an encounter with the clandestino or the nomad. The concept of topology was introduced to explain the new forms of spatiality to describe the relational approach to citizenship.
