Introducing ‘unwanted’ noncitizens 59 Figure 4.1 Elena and Ramadan outside their caravan (Denis Bosnic, 2015). upon liberal democratic principles.70 This further demonstrates the interrelationship of citizenship and noncitizenship and the need to recognise the reality of noncitizenship. In Denis Bosnic’s photograph, taken near Rome, Elena and Ramadan embrace outside the caravan where they live with their sons. They are some of a number of individuals who have worked with Bosnic in order to raise awareness in Italy about the situation for stateless persons. Elena has Romanian citizenship, but because Ramadan is stateless, they have not been able to register their marriage. Their children are not registered as Ramadan’s, but instead as fatherless. In this way, they have been able to claim the citizenship of their mother. The entire family is affected by a noncitizen, indeed a stateless vulnerability to the State and the State system. That is, statelessness not only affects Ramadan’s ability to act in the world, but also makes those close to him vulnerable to the State system 70 A discussion of the impact of Swedish border checks of travellers from Denmark and how it fits within wider developments is found, for example, in Tim Marshall (2016) Prisoners of Geography: Ten Maps that Tell You Everything You Need to Know About Global Politics, Elliott & Thompson Ltd, p. 107.
