E-raamat: Smart Borders, Digital Identity and Big Data: How Surveillance Technologies Are Used Against Migrants

This eye-opening book proposes a reading of smart borders, digital identity and the control of migratory movements via surveillance capitalism, showing how structural inequalities are perpetuated, affecting society as a whole. Sara Vannini, University of Sheffield In this remarkable book, Emre Korkmaz both pinpoints the political, economic, and technical logics fuelling the application of AI to migration control and sets out an agenda for ending the structural justice it unleashes. Tony Roberts, Institute of Development Studies "This is a brilliant, well-informed account of how migrants have become the canaries in the surveillance capitalist mine. The sections on smart borders, including inventions like 'Arizona' and the possible application of AI, are revelatory and somewhat frightening. The author convincingly argues that some of the means of controlling migrants will soon be applied to legal residents and citizens. Robin Cohen, University of Oxford









"Accessibly written and refreshingly bold, this book explores migration and security tech through a unique lens of surveillance capitalism, showing how capitalism influences global mobility, especially in the Global South." Sanja Milivojevic, University of Bristol
