Postcolonial Surveillance - Europe''s Border Technologies Between Colony and Crisis

Linking Europe's colonial era to today's high-tech border crisis, this book offers a genealogical account of border technologies and excavates the unacknowledged histories that had to be rejected for the seemingly clean, unbiased, and neutral technologies and policies to emerge as such.
