Technologies used for this task, such as European databases and biometric systems, are increasingly making use of the bodies of migrants as a source of information, discriminating for or against them as citizens or aliens. These new technological borders have a severe effect on the privacy and bodily integrity of people. Migration policy in Europe runs the risk of becoming a test lab for these new technologies. This cutting-edge collection provides a variety of disciplinary perspectives analyzing political, legal, administrational, and technological issues. Offering different strategies of counter-surveillance to strengthen the position of migrants and citizens, the book unpicks the new tensions in Europe between states and citizens, and between politics, technology and human rights.
