| Abstract |
During the FIFA 2022 World Cup, Qatar devised several ad hoc migration policies to dramatically curb the total number of visitors in favor of a preferred type of soccer fan: well-off and depoliticized. Profiting from a global state of exception during the COVID-19 pandemic, Doha further refined its mobility regime during the games, a move that went largely unnoticed in global media coverage. |
