This important book brings together exciting and original new work on the relationship between migration, borders, and technology. Through a series of fascinating studies, the contributors chart the role of technology in constituting migration and migrants through both practices of control and enabling forms of resistance and subversion. -- Christina Boswell, University of Edinburgh The Migration Mobile provides a unique overview of how deeply the key concepts on which societies are built such as population, identity, trust, infrastructures, dissidence, and resistance are intertwined with migration and mobility. A must read for anyone interested in social transformation, mobility, and the sociotechnical infrastructure of living together - and the resulting tensions. -- Huub Dijstelbloem, University of Amsterdam The Migration Mobile challenges policy frameworks to examine the network of diverse actors co-constituting the changing meanings of migration, detention, deportation, and destitution. A must-read for students, academics, and all those who work with or are interested in contemporary migration. -- Marie Gillespie, The Open University, UK
