The border is one of the most urgent issues of our times. We tend
to think of a border as a static line, but recent bordering
techniques have broken away from the map, as governments have
developed legal tools to limit the rights of migrants before and
after they enter a country's territory. The consequent detachment
of state power from any fixed geographical marker has created a new
paradigm: the shifting border, an adjustable legal construct
untethered in space. This transformation upsets our assumptions
about waning sovereignty, while also revealing the limits of the
populist push toward border-fortification. At the same time, it
presents a tremendous opportunity to rethink states'
responsibilities to migrants. This book proposes a new, functional
approach to human mobility and access to membership in a world
where borders, like people, have the capacity to move. -- .
