- PublicationAccès libreDocumenter les pays d’origine pour les procédures d’asile à l’Ofpra, 1988-2008(2019)À la fois type spécifique de savoir et registre particulier de pratiques, l’information sur les pays d’origine (COI/Country of Origin Information) est considérée comme un outil fondamental de la détermination du statut de réfugié. Cet article se penche sur l’institutionnalisation de la documentation sur les pays d’origine au sein de l’Ofpra entre 1988 et 2008 et montre comment cette histoire renvoie à celles de l’institution, de la communauté COI et de l’européanisation des procédures d’asile., Both a specific type of knowledge and a particular field of practices, Country of Origin Information (COI) is considered a fundamental tool in refugee status determination. This article examines the institutionalization of documentation on countries of origin in the French asylum administration between 1988 and 2008 and shows how this history reflects that of the institution, of the COI community and of the Europeanization of asylum procedures.
- PublicationAccès libreLegitimacy, distantiation and the ecology of knowledge production in the Norwegian asylum procedure(2018)The strict separation between the production of country of origin information (COI) and the assessment of asylum applications is a fundamental norm in the professional practice of COI producers. By looking at the Norwegian COI unit, this article examines the way this separation is materialized through an infrastructure of distantiation built around COI production sites. This apparatus is discernible not only in discourses and practices, but also in the organizational structures, spaces, and legal norms that contribute to the ecology of this specific site of expert knowledge production. It participates in the construction of the legitimacy of both institutions and individual actors involved in knowledge production.
- PublicationAccès libreThe Eritrea report: Symbolic uses of expert information in asylum politics(2015)
; Liodden, Tone MaiaThis paper discusses the role of country of origin information (COI) in asylum policies by examining the debate about a controversial Danish report on Eritrea that has been used to attempt to legitimise a restrictive turn in Danish asylum policy. Following substantial criticism, Danish authorities changed their policy interpretation of the report and returned to their former practice when dealing with asylum applications made by Eritreans. Nevertheless,the number of Eritrean applications lodged in Denmark has since dropped sharply and the report has influenced other asylum receiving states in Europe. The Eritrea case suggests that COI may function as a potential means of deterrence and that the boundaries between COI and policy goals blur easily, such that the production of knowledge becomes a site of political negotiation.
