520 |a This article contends that the concepts of "immigrant" and "refugee" are political fictions that have various functions within and for society. Given the realities of the Anthropocene Age, when millions of people will migrate within and between borders, it is necessary to exposes the fabrication of political concepts, such as "immigrant," for the sake of reconceptualizing our political philosophies and theologies. In short, by problematizing political and theologicafl constructions of immigrants/refugees, we are invited to think and act otherwise toward included-excluded others. Giorgi Agamben’s notions of inoperativity, singularity, and coming community—inflected through the political concept of care—are used to depict a kind of political dwelling that is independent of any representable condition for belonging, which is then framed from a theological perspective.
