Europe's Border and Surveillance Technologies advances a
postcolonial reading of border and surveillance technologies by
conceptualizing the present-day European border regime as part of a
racial-colonial complex that stretches from the contemporary
refugee crisis to the colonial era. From the days of colonial
conquest to the economic exploitation under the Mandate System and
recent years' interventions in the "Orient," the book provides a
longue duree perspective to uncover the unacknowledged legacies
that have sedimented into the bureaucratic and technological
backbone of the European border regime. Europe's pre-digital
colonial history continues to shape the political present and has
morphed into EU border technologies, media infrastructure,
classification apparatuses, and weaponry. By locating border and
surveillance infrastructure between Europe's former colonies and
the current migrant crisis, Madoerin lays bare the colonial fabric
of late-modern surveillance technologies--the colonial antecedents
of today's border apparatuses.
