Description

The borders of Europe are gradually mutating into technological borders.

Technologies used for this task, such as European databases and biometric systems, are increasingly making use of the bodies of migrants as a source of information, discriminating for or against them as citizens or aliens.

These new technological borders have a severe effect on the privacy and bodily integrity of people.

Migration policy in Europe runs the risk of becoming a test lab for these new technologies.

This cutting-edge collection provides a variety of disciplinary perspectives analyzing political, legal, administrational, and technological issues.

Offering different strategies of counter-surveillance to strengthen the position of migrants and citizens, the book unpicks the new tensions in Europe between states and citizens, and between politics, technology and human rights.
