‘Stay home’: emergency, (im)mobility, and the liberal subject

Project description

Understanding who the European liberal subject is during emergency situations

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, exceptional measures to hinder the spread of this infectious disease have been and continue to be imposed in countries around the world. The EU-funded MOBILISE project aims at investigating how these emergency measures have impacted on concepts of citizenship, freedom and civic engagement, with a focus on resistance practice against forced immobility. To achieve this goal, the project will address important questions, such as what defines a good citizen during an emergency, and the characteristics that define a responsible citizen. The outcome of the project will contribute to a better understanding of the transformation that European citizens have undergone during the pandemic.
