[ecrea] Borderlands Issue 16.1, Border Politics

Tue Nov 21 22:09:08 GMT 2017


The issue 16.1 of borderlands is now available online:

http://www.borderlands.net.au/issues/vol16no1.html
The contributions from Mahdis Azarmandi, Roberto D Hernandez, David Eades, Anelynda Mielke, Leila Whitley and Brett Nicholls combine to interrogate prevailing methods of state governance, specifically those that enact aggressive and exclusionary forms of border control and nationalism. Azarmandi and Hernandez examine current contestations over the re-naming of colonial sites and memorials in Barcelona and Spain, Eades and Mielke address specific cases of migration and border control in Australia/New Guinea and Palestine/Canada, respectively, while Whitley problematises the uptake of Agamben in border and migration scholarship. Nicholls contends that the documentary style of Adam Curtis is a powerful articulation of the post-political present and a compelling form of social theory.

My thanks to Tony Burke for his help and to Vijay Devadas for his valuable input and guidance in the production of this issue. My sincere thanks also to all the authors who contributed, for the commitment reflected in your writing and for your patient understanding during the publication process, it is much appreciated.
