Anna Triandafyllidou of the European University Institute reviews On the Doorstep of Europe: Asylum and Citizenship in Greece.This book is a much-needed contribution to the current debate on Europe’s asylum and refugee crisis. Heath Cabot, who pioneered critical ethnographic work on the Greek asylum system in 2004, has now published this book, which takes into account both the current financial crisis and the increasing migration and asylum pressures at Greece’s eastern sea borders. Its chapters offer a critical account of the Greek asylum policy and Greece’s liminal position at both the center and margins of Europe.
