Rezensionen

"Border Policing and Security Technologies is a tour de force of the bordering of the Balkans and remedies their neglect in the burgeoning field of borders and migration. The everyday borders of this region, in all their many forms, is brought to life through the finest empirical and theoretical interplay. This is a must read for everyone concerned with how powerfully the edges of Europe speak to the crisis of the centre, and challenges us to go well beyond our concern with the North and the South."

Sharon Pickering, Professor of Criminology and Dean of Arts, Monash Universiy, Australia

"Milivojevic lucidly unpacks the historical and contemporary interdependencies between the Western Balkans and

the European Union through a fresh lens of border control. Her multi-sited ethnographic research shows the pivotal role that policing, security and technology play in the Europeanization of the region as Serbia and FYR Macadonia "become the policemen" for Europe, patrolling the external borders, conducting migration control, and keeping unwanted border crossers out. But perhaps more importantly, Border Policing and Security Technologies highlights the complex technology-human-migration intersections that can act as counter claims, counter movements and ways out of the current border regimes based on violence and exclusion."
