Brexit brought an end to the free-movement rights of EU citizens in the United Kingdom, but the rights of the poorest Europeans were being actively curtailed even before that. From 2010, street homeless EU citizens were deported through a series of pilot schemes operating in London. In 2016, their ‘administrative removal’ was instituted as national policy. Using process-tracing methodology, we have analysed publicly available documents and others obtained through Freedom of Information requests to assemble an account of how and why a range of ‘stakeholders’ worked together to deport rough-sleeping EU citizens. Our paper addresses two research questions: (i) what actors contributed to these deportations and (ii) through the use of which analytic framework(s) can we begin to understand the deportation of street homeless foreigners? As we find, London's deportation apparatus involved national and local-level state actors, homelessness NGOs and local businesses. The deportation of rough-sleeping EU citizens was a racist biopolitical practice that reflected a concern for ‘hygiene’ at local and national scales, as well as the prevention of ‘harm’ to individual and social bodies.

伦敦的驱逐出境机构：2010-17 年粗睡的欧盟公民的“行政驱逐”

英国脱欧终结了欧盟公民在英国的自由迁徙权利，但最贫穷的欧洲人的权利甚至在此之前就受到了积极的限制。从 2010 年开始，通过在伦敦开展的一系列试点计划，街头无家可归的欧盟公民被驱逐出境。2016年，他们的“行政撤离”被立为国策。使用过程追踪方法，我们分析了公开可用的文件和通过信息自由请求获得的其他文件，以汇总有关一系列“利益相关者”如何以及为何共同努力驱逐露宿街头的欧盟公民的说明。我们的论文解决了两个研究问题：（i）哪些行为者促成了这些驱逐出境，以及（ii）通过使用哪种分析框架，我们可以开始了解街头无家可归的外国人的驱逐出境？我们发现，伦敦的驱逐机构涉及国家和地方层面的国家行为体、无家可归者非政府组织和当地企业。驱逐露宿街头的欧盟公民是一种种族主义的生命政治行为，反映了对地方和国家范围内“卫生”的关注，以及防止对个人和社会机构造成“伤害”。
