(Un)Making mess at Europe's data borders: Order, control, critique
Critical border and migration studies have shown that border practices are often messy, ambiguous, improvised and uncertain, while datafication has amplified messiness and its effects on migrants. Describing ‘mess’ at borders has been a critical intervention against the myth of order, homogeneity, predictability, clarity or efficiency. Yet, ‘mess’ can also open spaces for agency and resisting data borders. What do these ambiguities mean for the c…
Absent Tech: Data, Violence and (Non)Credibility at the EU Borders
The digitisation of borders has permeated academic and political debates, the image of ‘digital fortress Europe’ becoming normalised and taken for granted. This ‘taken for grantedness’, however, clashes with the reality on the ground and has important implications for migrants' rights and credibility. This paper seeks to supplement accounts that foreground the assumed omnipresence of digital technologies with an analysis of their concomitant abse…
Border Agnotologies: Power, Technology, Resistance
The introduction to the Special Issue on Border agnotologies outlines the contributions that the articles gathered here make to the vibrant interdisciplinary conversation between critical scholarship on borders, migration and (in)security, and the field of ignorance studies. By focusing on borders, we have invited authors to explore the specificities of bordering practices in the production and reproduction of knowledge and non-knowledge. Through…
Making Digital (Non)Citizens: Digital Identity, Non-Knowledge and Statelessness in Cambodia
Identity documentation and registration have traditionally been framed as both the primary problem and universal solution to statelessness. In the so-called ‘digital age’, this has translated into widespread optimism surrounding the introduction of digital identification and registration systems, which are often heralded as powerful tools in the ‘fight against statelessness’. The underlying logic of this position can be summarised as follows: fir…
Collecting, assembling, ordering: Border politics and the invisible data work of asylum
This article proposes to understand the ‘invisible data work’ that asylum seekers must do to put together a ‘credible’ asylum application. While the intersections between asylum and work have typically been analysed in relation to access to employment and labour conditions, we attend to the work of collecting, assembling, and ordering different forms of analogue and digital data inherent to the asylum process. Building on feminist interdisciplina…
Border Abolitionism: Migrants’ Containment and the Genealogies of Struggles and Rescue, Martina Tazzioli (2023)
Review of: Border Abolitionism: Migrants’ Containment and the Genealogies of Struggles and Rescue , Martina Tazzioli (2023) Manchester: Manchester University Press, 200 pp., ISBN 978-1-52616-093-5, h/bk, £80.00
Digital-Nondigital Assemblages: Data, Paper Trails, and Migrants' Scattered Subjectivities at the Border
This paper argues that the border regime works through entanglements of digital and nondigital data and of 'low-tech' and 'high-tech' technologies. It suggests that a critical analysis of the assemblages between digital and nondigital requires exploring their effects of subjectivation on those who are labeled as 'migrants.' The paper starts with a critique of the presentism and techno-hype that pervade research on borders and technology, and poin…
Precarious (non-) citizens: A historical analysis of ethnic Vietnamese' access to citizenship in Cambodia
The current paper investigates the meaning and forms that citizenship can take in non-Western contexts. It does so by looking at the case study of the Vietnamese minority in Cambodia, a significant portion of which has been unable to obtain or retain Cambodian citizenship despite having lived in the Kingdom for generations. Drawing upon documentary sources and interview data collected over eight months of fieldwork, the paper retraces the Vietnam…
Asylum, Borders, and the Politics of Violence: From Suspicion to Cruelty
Critical scholarship in international relations, border, and migration studies has analyzed the cultures of suspicion that underpin border practices and have increasingly reshaped the politics of asylum globally. They have highlighted either the generalization of suspicion through the securitization of asylum or racialized and gendered continuities of colonial violence. We propose to understand the entanglements of continuity and discontinuity in…
