This paper focuses on a particular instance of migrant resistance: the hunger strike of three hundred irregular migrants in 2011 in Greece. It does not conceptualize the politics of migrant resistance as an isolated incidence of mobilization of irregular migrants against the government in support for their rights in existing institutions. By drawing on a set of fifty-two face-to-face semi-structured interviews with migrant protesters and organizers of the hunger strike, this paper rather argues that the politics of migrant resistance is performed in the daily lives and day-to-day activities of irregular migrants. It is performed by irregular migrants and those who stand in solidarity with them through the mundane production of information, tricks for survival, mutual care, social relations, services exchange, solidarity, and sociability, which challenge security policies and controls and establish an alternative form of life. The differential inclusion of irregular migrants in various social fields, and the leeway that this inclusion potentially creates in their daily lives and social relationships, enables irregular migrants to create ties with other agents/actors in dominated positions in their social fields, who possess and control the essential capital for the creation of these alternative modes of life.

希腊经济危机中的移民抵抗政治

本文着重介绍移民抵抗的一个特殊实例：2011年希腊发生了300名非正规移民的绝食抗议。它没有将移民抵抗的政治概念化为动员非正规移民反对政府以支持其在现有机构中的权利的孤立事件。通过对移民抗议者和绝食组织者进行五十二次面对面的半结构化访谈，这篇论文反而认为移民抵抗的政治是在日常生活和日常活动中进行的。非正规移民的活动。它是由非正规移民和通过平凡的信息生产，生存技巧，相互照顾，社会关系，服务交流，团结和社会友善与他们站在一起的人执行的，挑战安全策略和控制并建立另一种生活方式。不同社会领域中非正规移民的差异性包容以及这种包容性可能在他们的日常生活和社会关系中产生的余地，使非正规移民能够与拥有并控制着其社会领域中处于主导地位的其他代理人/行为者建立联系创造这些替代生活方式的基本资本。
