| Yhteenveto: | In France, a residence permit can be granted to migrants on the grounds of the exceptional seriousness of their illness. This legal framework, which recognizes the biolegitimacy of the non-native’s suffering body, is gradually being eroded. Using an ethnographic approach, this article describes the effects of the restriction of access to the right to stay in France for medical reasons, based on the cases of migrants who are HIV-positive or suffering from psychological pathologies. It shows a paradigm shift away from biolegitimacy, and analyzes the social, legal, symbolic, emotional, and psychological consequences for seriously ill migrants. Through the prism of discouragement, it looks at the impact of repeated obstacles to regularization on migrants’ health. |
