"Suspended Lives discusses the many forms of violence that have become endemic to the US political asylum system. Through compelling accounts of individual asylum seekers, Bridget Haas portrays the deeply human dimension of the asylum system. This innovative, insightful book belongs on the shelf of anyone interested in refugees, asylum, immigration, or trauma."⏤Amy Shuman, coauthor of Political Asylum Deceptions: The Culture of Suspicion "Suspended Lives contains important theoretical interventions as well as novel ethnographic material about an immigrant population that has not been extensively studied. Empathetic and accessibly written, this is an important contribution to understanding the daily lives and struggles of refugees navigating the complex--perhaps complexly broken--US asylum system."⏤Beatriz Reyes-Foster, author of Psychiatric Encounters: Madness and Modernity in Yucatan, Mexico "This groundbreaking book represents a theoretically and conceptually sophisticated contribution to ethnographic research in asylum seeking. Suspended Lives offers compelling insights into the interpenetration of everyday experiences with structural conditions and relations of power. It is likely to inform scholarship in the field for decades to come."⏤Charles Watters, author of Refugee Children: Towards the Next Horizon
