Abstract

List of Egos identified through empirical research to inform ego-centric social network visualising implementation of the norm of nonrefoulement in the United States at the US-Mexico land border in 2019. Egos are derived from different potential categorisations of individuals seeking asylum at the land border between the United States and Mexico. Egos have direct and indirect links (edges) to Alters through participation in the asylum legal decision-making process. Egos are collective entities, which allows for better triangulation of data.
