This chapter developes an understanding of citizenship as an emergent condition that is both emplaced and embodied. The analysis of the crime of clandestinity' and the Nomad Emergency Decree' shows how one's relationship to the political community is determined both through one's legal status, as well as through the struggles that determine whether one is considered to be legitimately or illegitimately present in the nation. The production of diverse non-citizen subjects through the Security Package is evidenced by one of its most controversial measures the so-called crime of clandestinity' and the debates that accompanied its passage into legislation. The particular encounter both informs and is informed by the general: encounters between embodied subjects always hesitate between the domain of the particular the face-to-face of this encounter and the general the framing of the encounter by broader relationships of power and antagonism.
