The carceral web
This article maps and analyses the imbricated forms of corporate and state power that forms the basis of expanding detention regimes in the US, the UK and Australia, countries that have the largest and most privatised detention estates in the world. We propose theorising these relationships as a carceral web that entraps people, spaces, and communities. We argue that the web is transnational, sticky and elastic, made possible by the alliance betw…
Walls and Cages
The Trump administration’s rapid expansion of immigration controls across the United States is often cast as exceptional. Taking a historical, transnational view reveals that this rising authoritarianism is intimately tied to the proliferation of walls and cages across Western states over a number of decades. Sustained efforts by politicians across the ideological spectrum to detain, deport, and criminalize migrants have reshaped societies, under…
Immigration Detention at Sea
Over the past four decades, maritime geographies have become prominent sites of migration governance. While there is important scholarly work on these spaces, charting changing techniques of control and containment, what continues to demand attention is the governance that works through systematically keeping people seeking asylum mobile at sea. This article focuses on Australia, examining the coerced mobilities that follow interdictions at sea a…
The carceral wet
Mobility control in ungovernable spaces
Programmes of migration regulation in the Mediterranean Sea constantly evolve and adapt, changing in accordance to shifting migration patterns and EU policies. Despite the commitment to governing mobility in this sea, migrant death continues to be a significant and indeed growing problem in the Mediterranean. While scholars have examined how the geography of the US-Mexico border is incorporated into an architecture of exclusion ( Doty, 2011 ), th…
Distancing Asylum Seekers from the State
Australia's border enforcement strategies and immigration control policies operate in distant geographies, concealed from human rights groups, media and the public. From offshore detention to militarised maritime defence operations, Australia's exclusion of asylum seekers is increasingly dependent upon geographical processes that ensure asylum seekers do not have access to the state's systems of protection. This article explores a critically over…
