EU expansion has stoked fears that criminals from the East may
abuse freedom of movement to exploit the benefit systems of richer
states. This book examines the way in which physical state borders
are increasingly being replaced by internal border controls in the
form of state bureaucracies as a means of regulating westward
migration. The work examines the postmodern effect of globalisation
and how ontological anxieties contribute to securitisation and
social sorting in Western countries. It discusses the changes in
control societies and how targeted surveillance as a geopolitical
tool leads to new digitalised mechanisms of population selection.
The book presents a casestudy of Roma migrants in the UK to examine
the coping strategies adopted by those targeted. The book also
critically evaluates the limitations of digitalised bureaucratic
systems and the dangers of reliance on virtual data and selection
methods.
