Focusing in particular on the European borders, this volume brings
together an interdisciplinary group of academics to consider
questions of immigration and the free movement of people, linking
control within the state to the role of the police and internal
security. The contributors all take as the point of departure the
significance of European governmentality within the Foucauldian
meaning as opposed to the European governance perspective which is
already well represented in the literature. They discuss the
relation between control of borders, introduction of biometrics and
freedom. The book makes available in English an analysis of an
important and politically highly charged field from a major French
critical perspective. It draws on different disciplines including
law, politics, international relations and philosophy.
