To many, a border is a geographical fact. But what happens when a border is subject to an emergency? Today, as millions are forced to migrate due to war, famine and political unrest, it is important to analyse how states use new bordering techniques to control populations.New Borders focuses on the Greek island of Lesbos. Since 2015, the island has come under intense scrutiny as more than one million people have disembarked on its shores.During this time, the authors spent two years studying the changing meanings and functions of the EU's border. They observed how the reception of the refugees slid into detention and refuge became duress. Examining how and why this happened, they tackle questions on European policy, the securitisation of national and EU borders and the real impacts this has had on everyday life, determining who 'belongs' where and when.

Taking a critical approach, this book advances understanding of the social, legal and ethical aspects of digitalisation in law enforcement and the reliance on data-driven tools to predict and prevent crime. It shows how the proliferation of data analytics challenges citizens’ rights, at a time when what counts as ‘safety’ or ‘policing’ is being fundamentally transformed.Expert contributors examine data driven policing infrastructures across Europe from a variety of disciplinary perspectives, showing how its day-to-day application differs from intended aims, and the consequences of this. With ethnographic case studies from border to traffic control, and from facial recognition to essentially automated data analytics, the authors argue that predictive policing is shaped not only by technology, but also by the imaginaries, policy, power, interest and resistance within policing agencies.Offering a critical perspective on this topical subject, Critical Perspectives on Predictive Policing is an excellent resource for scholars in critical criminology, critical geography, science and technology studies, and digital and urban studies.

Nowhere is this problem clearer than in the favelas of Rio de Janeiro. Through meticulous research, community engagement and direct action within the Mare region - a cluster of seventeen favela communities in the northern zone of Rio - Antonis Vradis, Timo Bartholl, and Christos Filippidis have created a shocking, inspiring, and revolutionary collection of essays that go beyond the question of food in the Brazilian urban periphery, and highlights critical issues concerning state control, pacification, solidarity, and grassroots organizing. Favela Resistance is a lens through which we can understand how the state creates marginalized lives in cities throughout the world under the auspices of welfare, security, and emergency support. The link between food and public security is intertwined with decades-long pacification operations in the favelas of Rio. This fight for food sovereignty shows how local production structures and solidarity networks have radically rethought and reconfigured the relationship between cities and farms; providing a map of how impoverished populations can organize resistance, create health and community, and fight - literally from the ground up - for a better world.

I detta nummer åker Ord&Bild till det Grekland som just nu får hela EU att hålla andan. Vad händer med tiden, poesin och livet självt i åtstramningarnas och revolternas tid? Tillsammans med Aris Fioretos, Kajsa Ekis Ekman och Sun Axelsson besöker vi militärjuntans 60- och 70-tal, och reflekterar över vad som idag skiljer sig från då och vad som är sig likt. I sällskap med Antonis Vradis stiger vi ner i Atens tunnelbana och lyssnar till stadens och krisens rytm. Och med Thea Potter spårar vi attiska gränsstenar och drar upp linjerna för en stenkastandets filosofiska arkeologi. Dessutom bjuder vi på samtida grekisk poesi, reportage i ord och bild från en revolterande by och, som alltid, kritik. Medverkande i detta tema: Antonis Vradis i Atens tunnelbana , Anna Bredström, Michele Lapini och Evie Papada om kampen mot guldexploatering i Halkidiki, utdrag ur Aris Fioretos kommande roman, grekisk motståndspoesi från 1960-talet, Kajsa Ekis Ekman om Sun Axelsson i Grekland, Louise Harbo och Liv Sejrbo Lidegaard talar koltrastar och nationalism med Orfeas Apergis, Martin Bengtsson talar gethuvuden och digital poesi med Theodoros Chiotis, Thea Potter kastar attiska gränsstenar, Kalle Hedström Gustafsson spårar cellmembranens evolution och Helena Fagertun skriver om män som beundrar Homeros. I kritikdelen har Martin Engberg läst Claus Beck-Nielsen, Hjalmar Falk Annika Ruth-Persson och Stefan Jonsson Euripides.
