Governing circulation through technology within EU border security practice-networks

Abstract

In this paper, I critically interrogate efforts to govern circulations of non-EU citizens to and within the Schengen area. I do so by dwelling on the functionalities of information systems used, among other purposes, for border security. My argument is twofold. First, I contend that circulations are governed within nexuses of technologically mediated control practices (practice-networks) performed outside, at the edges of, and inside the Schengen area. Second, I show that information systems, borders, mobile bodies, and security rationales do not remain fixed throughout the process of governing circulations, but emerge, mutate and multiply through their ongoing (re)enactment within practice-networks.
