| Zusammenfassung: | Feet play a crucial role in migration, and experiences of death and hopes for new life are etched into migrants' soles.

Cultivation of a habitus rooted in attention to bodies, service, power subversion, mutuality and confession could lead to new life both for those in migration and those long settled. |
