Recenzii
Postcolonial Surveillance considers the long history of European border regimes, focusing on the colonial predecessors of today's border technologies. Undertaking a longue durée approach to uncover how Europe's pre-digital colonial history continues to shape the high-tech political present, Madörin shows how colonial practices live on in the European Union's border migration policies, border security, and surveillance apparatuses. She exposes the consistent racial hierarchies and power relations that form these systems, highlighting key moments when the past and present interact and collide, such as in panoptic surveillance, biopolitical registers, and biometric sorting. This specialized work will appeal strongly to those researching surveillance regimes, racism, migration, and postcolonialism more generally. Highly recommended. Faculty, researchers, and professionals.
The multilayered, high-tech surveillance systems that guard Europe's borders appear instrumental in facilitating the orderly and efficient movement of bona fide passengers and denying entry to 'problematic populations.' However, Anouk Madörin argues that beneath this façade lies appalling neocolonial policies and racist sorting principles that European governments, colonial companies, and elites have developed over centuries of colonialism and the trade of enslaved populations. The author argues her case forcefully and passionately. It is essential reading for those interested in critical surveillance studies, racism, migration studies, and colonialism.
Colonial history and racial domination have often been the open secrets of border and migration scholarship, seen but not seen. Postcolonial Surveillance treats these absent presences as its most central and pressing questions, making this book a vital intervention in debates and struggles about borders today.
This is an urgent and a much-needed book to help us think about the issue of migration beyond crisis and Europe's technologized borders in relation to its colonial past. Analyzing contemporary cases, Anouk Madörin masterfully unravels the colonial fabric of contemporary surveillance technologies, underscoring the chronicity of what we call 'crisis.'
