Abstract :

[en] This chapter examines crises as politico-ethical moments of vulnerability that lead to transformation and experimentation with dominant norms and ways of doing and valuing the good. It explores mundane forms of ethical crises defined as 'moral breakdowns' in the context of grassroots welcome practices for refugees in Paris. It demonstrates that, in this context, everyday crises about what doing good is and how it should be done can be understood as both an expression and a response to a broader crisis of EUrope and its borders.
