Border Security

Shores of Politics, Horizons of Justice

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Drawing empirically on the now notorious case of Australia, this book pursues a range of theoretical perspectives - including Foucault's work on power, the systems theory of Niklas Luhmann, and the cybernetic ethics of Heinz Von Foerster - in order to formulate an account of the thoroughly constructed and political nature of border security.
