To many, a border is a geographical fact. But what happens when a
border is subject to an emergency? Today, as millions are forced to
migrate due to war, famine and political unrest, it is important to
analyse how states use new bordering techniques to control
populations. New Borders focuses on the Greek island of Lesbos.
Since 2015, the island has come under intense scrutiny as more than
one million people have disembarked on its shores. During this
time, the authors spent two years studying the changing meanings
and functions of the EU's border. They observed how the reception
of the refugees slid into detention and refuge became duress.
Examining how and why this happened, they tackle questions on
European policy, the securitisation of national and EU borders and
the real impacts this has had on everyday life, determining who
'belongs' where and when.
