"The European Digital Border. Narratives on technology and practices of control in the governing of migrant mobilities" is the title of the paper that we commissioned to researcher Jacopo Anderlini to address the issue of tracking and monitoring at European borders. The research is part of the #SmartPrisons programme.

"The Feeling of Being Watched" by Assia Boundaoui explores the impact of surveillance on Muslim-American communities in the wake of the #WarOnTerror, and raises important questions about ##privacy, security, & #CivilLiberties.

"We, refugees from the ethnic cleansing, were already treated as a dirt and parasites in our home country, now we are only allowed to live on the water and to have the task to keep everything clean on land. We clean their houses and sleep on the water at night so as not to contaminate their land with our presence." Adnan Softić
