Abstract
Understanding vulnerability as a process emerging unevenly through a reading of jurisprudence as literature challenges the carceral conceptualisation of immigration detention as a form of spatial control, when hegemonic narratives insist upon vulnerability as a corporeal concept born on the bodies of those subject to border violence rather than of the space itself. Through a critical reading of the text theorised through spatial vulnerability, I aim to encounter the material emergence of the gesture towards enclosure, that which must constantly deny its uneven and material originary narrative, revealing its inherent vulnerability at the site of the spectral threshold.

This work attempts to counteract the essentialism of originary thinking in the contemporary era by providing a new reading of a relatively understudied corpus of literature from a ambivalently stereotyped diasporic group, in order to rethink and problematise the concept of diaspora as a spatial concept. As work situated in the Law-in-Literature movement, beyond the disciplinary boundaries of scholarship, this book aims to construct a 'literary jurisprudence' of diaspora space, deconstructing space in order to question what it means to be 'settled' in literary refractions of the lawscape by drawing on refractions of case law in a corpus of texts by Romani authors. These texts are used as hermeutic framings to draw unique spatio-temporal landscapes through which the reader can explore the refractive, reflective, interpretative conditions of legality as a crucible in which to theorise law.The radical intent of this work, therefore, is to deconstruct jurisprudential spatial order in order to theorize diaspora space, in the context of the Roma Diaspora. This work will offer readers new possibilities to re-imagine diaspora through law and literature and provides an innovative critical interdisciplinary analysis of the shaping of space.
