KOBELINSKY, Carolina. La evaluación moral cotidiana de los candidatos al estatuto de refugiado en Francia. Runa [online]. 2007, vol.28, pp.59-75. ISSN 1851-9628.

In the Reception centers in France, the moral evaluation of asylum seekers is two-fold: on the one hand, there is a doubt about the truth of the story founding the asylum claim; on the other hand, asylum seekers are judged depending on their everyday attitudes towards the institution and its members. Based on a longlasting ethnographic study, the aim of this paper is to explore the representations constructed by social workers and the way they operate in everyday interactions.

Keywords : Reception centers for asylum seekers; Moral evaluation; Suspicion; Mistrust; Truth.
