The Borders of Belonging and the Question of Roots -- The Politics of Shaping Home -- An Emergent Ethic: Sensing Response-Ability -- A Practice of Paradox: Breathing Life into Theory -- Autopoiesis: Co-creating Home in Berlin -- Opening into the Abyss.

This book posits that the 'refugee crisis' may actually be a crisis of identity in a rapidly changing world. It argues that Western conceptions of the individual 'Self' shape metaphors of political homes, and thus the geopolitics of belonging and exclusion. Metzger-Traber creatively re-conceives political belonging by perceiving the interconnection of each 'Self' through its most immediate home - the breathing body. On an experimental literary journey through her own past and that of Germany, she puts political philosophy in conversation with somatic and spiritual insight to expand notions of 'Self' and 'Home'. Then she asks: What ethical imperatives arise? What kinds of homes and homelands would we create if we no longer thought we ended at our skin?
