“…Their presence within the territory and the simple claim that 'we are here' become legitimate grounds for migrants to ask for protection from violence and for their recognition and rights (Krause 2008: 342). Migrants' mobilization may occur in ethnicity-based solidarity groups, sectoral groups, or issue-based groups centred around the issue of lack of legal status or xenophobic violence/ discrimination (Nicholls 2013;McNevin 2006McNevin , 2012Raissiguier 2014). As explained in Chapter 3, issue-based mobilization centred on deportations and racist violence has prevailed in the case of Morocco.…”

Introduction 3.1 Deportability as part of daily experience Deportability at the borderlands Deportability in urban life After the King's speech 3.2 Illegality in (semi-)settlement Settling into violent neighbourhoods 'The problem is work' 3.3 Access to public healthcare and education Healthcare between formal recognition and bureaucratic incorporation Public education: Bureaucratic sabotage and self-exclusion 3.4 Reversing illegality through mobilization Emergence of civil society networks Migrants' self-organizations Brothers in arms: What makes alliances possible? Mobilization for individual mobility 4 Turkey Depoliticized illegality and a quest for legitimacy 4.1 Migrant deportability beyond the EU borders Experiences of deportability: Between tolerance and arbitrariness 4.2 Illegality in (semi-)settlement: Incorporation into informality Settling into informality 'We arrived, slept, and the next day we started working' Limits of labour market participation Opening access to healthcare?

Civil society working on immigration issues Legal sidesteps in the absence of mobilization 5 Migrant illegality beyond EU borders Turkey and Morocco in a comparative perspective 5.1 Deportations and perceptions of deportability 5.2 Socioeconomic participation and daily legitimacy 5.3 Access to rights through institutions and the role of 'streetlevel advocacy' The genesis of this book was my PhD dissertation, which I defended at Koç University and the University of Amsterdam in 2015, it further evolved during my post-doctoral fellowship at MiReKoc and assistant professorship at Koç University. I would like to thank all of the academic and administrative staff at both institutions for providing me with intellectual homes during the fieldwork and writing stages.

This book is indeed a product of the long physical, intellectual and mental journey that I have taken alongside several wonderful people to whom thanks are due. Unfortunately, I can only mention a few of them in this short piece. I would first like to thank my supervisors, Prof Ahmet İçduygu and Prof Jan Rath for their invaluable guidance. Additionally, Dr Sebastien Chauvin, Dr Özlem Altan, Prof Deniz Yükseker and Prof Mine Eder were always ready to read earlier drafts of my chapters and discuss my ideas. Conducting fieldwork in two different countries would not have been possible without the valuable help of precious people. In Morocco: Apostolos, Babacar, Fatima, Moussa, Cewad and Najat, among others, helped me immensely in navigating my way in a land where I considered myself an outsider.
