Surveillance for Detection (Part 1)

Part 1 of surveillance for detection - how are technologies used along physical border lines?Using the territories of Bulgaria & Serbia as case studies, we look at the interwoven roles of surveillance technologies and European border management practices at both the EU’s external border and non-EU borders of ‘third countries’. In this episode we try to answer the question of how and which technologies get to borders? How much is being spent? And who is spending the money?By analysing patterns of externalising border management, alongside how technologies are being used and tested on vulnerable populations - we see how this fits into a wider imperial understanding of European border management practices.Sound Design: Brian Mcnamara SoundGraphic Design: Marlene Janke and Dan SchoolarFor the full list of episodes, transcripts and additional resources, visit https://invisible-borders.jimdosite.com/ Hosted on Acast.
