This study aims to critically analyze the mechanisms of subjugation and marginalization experienced by day laborers in Qeyam Square of Boroujerd by examining the relationship between space and biopolitical governance. The central problem of the research is to explain the condition of suspension and rightlessness of day laborers in the square as an exception-producing machine that places them in a condition of homo sacerization. The study employs a critical ethnographic approach, utilizing methods such as threshold observation, embodied presence in the field, the role of the secondary witness, and reflexivity during fieldwork. The findings indicate that Qeyam Square operates as an “open camp,” reproducing the process of homo sacerization through technologies of waiting, bodily erosion, and the arbitrary decision-making power of employers, who function as local sovereigns. In contrast to previous studies that have largely interpreted marginalization primarily in economic or psychological terms, this research demonstrates that subjugation in the square is the direct outcome of a spatialized state of emergency in which workers are expelled from the sphere of citizenship rights and reduced to bare life. Nevertheless, the findings also reveal the presence of resistant forms of agency, manifested through informal networks of mutual support and the continued embodied presence of workers in the public space. Exiting this zone of suspension cannot achieved solely through charitable interventions or state-centered policies; it requires the emergence of collective action among workers, the strengthening of mutual aid networks, and the active involvement of civil society institutions alongside institutional reforms in urban policy.
