The question of mobile Roma beggars in Europe has been analysed in terms of securitization, racialization, and deportability. These people have been hailed as ‘abject’ or ‘failed’ citizens, the problem of race being made largely invisible. In the Swedish context, the category of race does not emerge in overt form, and Swedes generally imagine themselves to be an egalitarian and just society. However, in Stockholm, in 2015, the unprecedented visibility of rough sleeping EU-migrants turned daily chance meetings tasks into ‘ethical encounters’. Using the concept of enacting citizenship and the Narrative Policy Framework, this article analyses day-to-day narratives about ‘vulnerable EU citizens’ constructed by the media and experts in the winter of 2015 in Stockholm. Most press narratives would silence the voices of migrants, framing them as passive victims, their problem being defined in terms of extreme temperature, thus making cold weather the principle villain. With regard to acts of citizenship, the paper analyses expert opinions on the migrants’ performance. Their stories and discourse reveal the image of a ‘vulnerable EU citizen’: one of a passive, begging, distressingly visible individual who is failing to perform citizenship. This shortcoming is regarded here as contributing to the justification of a wider policy framework in which the migrants’ claims are seen as unfounded and undeserved, while their attitude is viewed as unappreciative, although they would allegedly not be racialized as a group.

从证券化，种族化和可驱逐性的角度分析了欧洲的流动罗姆乞port问题。这些人被誉为“卑鄙的”或“失败的”公民，种族问题在很大程度上变得不可见。在瑞典语中，种族类别并不是以公开的形式出现的，瑞典人通常认为自己是一个平等的社会，也是一个公正的社会。但是，在2015年的斯德哥尔摩，空前沉睡的欧盟移民的空前知名度使日常的机会会议任务变成了“道德相遇”。本文使用制定公民身份的概念和叙事政策框架，分析了媒体和专家于2015年冬季在斯德哥尔摩构建的有关“脆弱的欧盟公民”的日常叙事。大多数新闻叙事会沉默移民的声音，将他们定为被动受害者，他们的问题是根据极端温度来定义的，因此使寒冷的天气成为主要的反派。关于公民行为，本文分析了有关移民表现的专家意见。他们的故事和话语揭示了“弱势的欧盟公民”的形象：一个被动的，乞讨的，痛苦的，可见的，未能履行公民资格的人之一。在这里，这种缺陷被认为有助于建立更广泛的政策框架，在该框架中，移民的主张被认为是没有根据和应得的，而他们的态度却被认为是不赞赏的，尽管据称他们不会被种族化为一个整体。本文分析了有关移民绩效的专家意见。他们的故事和话语揭示了“弱势的欧盟公民”的形象：一个被动的，乞讨的，痛苦的，可见的，未能履行公民资格的人之一。在这里，这种缺陷被认为有助于建立更广泛的政策框架，在该框架中，移民的主张被认为是没有根据和应得的，而他们的态度却被认为是不赞赏的，尽管据称他们不会被种族化为一个整体。本文分析了有关移民绩效的专家意见。他们的故事和话语揭示了“弱势的欧盟公民”的形象：一个被动的，乞讨的，痛苦的，可见的，未能履行公民资格的人之一。在这里，这种缺陷被认为有助于建立更广泛的政策框架，在该框架中，移民的主张被认为是没有根据和应得的，而他们的态度却被认为是不赞赏的，尽管据称他们不会被种族化为一个整体。
