This article proposes the term departheid to capture the systemic oppression and spatial management of illegalized migrants in Western liberal states. As a concept, departheid aims to move beyond the instrumentality of illegalizing migration in order to comprehend the tenacity with which oppressive measures are implemented even in the face of accumulating evidence for their futility in managing migration flows and the harm they cause to millions of people. The article highlights continuities between present oppressive migration regimes and past colonial configurations for controlling the mobility of what Hannah Arendt has called “subject races.” By drawing on similarities with apartheid as a governing ideology based on racialization, segregation, and deportation, I argue that departheid, too, is animated by a sense of moral superiority that is rooted in a fantasy of White supremacy. |

Este artículo propone el término departheid para designar la opresión sistémica y la gestión espacial de los inmigrantes ilegalizados en los Estados liberales occidentales. Como concepto, departheid apunta a ir más allá de los instrumentos de ilegalización de la migración para comprender la persistencia con que se implementan estas medidas opresivas, a pesar de una creciente evidencia sobre su inutilidad en la gestión de la movilidad humana y del daño que causan a millones de personas. El artículo destaca la continuidad entre los actuales regímenes migratorios opresivos y las configuraciones coloniales del pasado para controlar la movilidad de aquellos a quienes Hannah Arendt denominó las “razas sometidas”. Haciendo uso de similitudes con el apartheid como ideología dominante basada en la racialización, la segregación y la deportación, sostengo que el departheid viene motivado también por un sentido de superioridad moral enraizado en la fantasía de la supremacía blanca. Este artigo propõe o termo departheid para capturar a opressão sistêmica e a gestão espacial dos imigrantes ilegalizados nos Estados liberais ocidentais. Como conceito, departheid objetiva ir além da instrumentalidade da ilegalização no sentido de compreender a tenacidade com a qual as medidas opressivas são implementadas apesar de uma crescente evidência sobre a sua inutilidade na gestão da mobilidade humana e os danos que causam a milhões de pessoas. O artigo destaca as continuidades entre os atuais regimes migratórios opressivos e as configurações no passado colonial por controlar a mobilidade ao que Hannah Arendt chamou de “raças submetidas”. Ao fazer uso da similaridade com o apartheid como ideologia dominante baseada na racialização, segregação e deportação, argumento que o departheid também é motivado por um sentido de superioridade moral com raízes na fantasia da supremacia branca.
