Yet, how this idea of \u201cculture-as-defining-attribute\u201d works among <i>people situated in everyday life<\/i> remains understudied. We develop an analytical framework centred on discursive repertoires, sources of relational meaning-production, anchored in historical contexts, and embedded in power. Analyzing 125 essays written by Toronto and Neuch\u00e2tel undergraduate students, we demonstrate that using culture-as-defining-attribute results in an <i>in\/visibilization<\/i> of power relations. Toronto students hypervisibilize a positively inflected conviviality across multicultural diversity, while invisibilizing racism and settler colonialism. Neuch\u00e2tel students visibilize the production of migranticized others, invisibilizing nativism and non-migrant\/white structural privileges. We end with a plea for context-specific analysis of culture-as-defining-attribute and a deeper understanding of in\/visibilization as a significant \u201cmissing link\u201d in current analyses of culture and ex\/inclusion.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Keywords<\/strong>: Uses of culture, migranticization, racialization, nativism, discursive repertoires, invisibilization<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Author(s) : Janine Dahinden, Anna C.
