asylum, queer, migrants, violence, bureaucracyRésumé
Dans cet article, nous analysons les rencontres multiples vécues par les demandeurs d’asile queer en raison de la violence inhérente au contrôle des frontières et au processus de reconnaissance du droit d’asile. Cette analyse s’appuie sur la reconstitution de deux récits qui font partie d'une étude ethnographique et qui résultent de cinq années de travail sur le terrain avec des migrants queers au Brésil et en Espagne. Nous utilisons la notion de violence bureaucratique pour comprendre les tensions entre le contrôle et la protection dans l'émergence du réfugié LGBTI en tant que sujet de droits dans le domaine humanitaire.
