Book Launch: The Politics of Borders
Matthew Longo will be discussing his book, ‘The Politics of Borders: Sovereignty, Security, and the Citizen after 9/11’, recently published by Cambridge University Press. The event will be chaired by Kalypso Nicolaïdis, Professor of International Relations, Director of the Centre for International Studies, and Faculty Fellow, St Antony’s College.

Border security is an obsession of our time. Why is this true and why does it matter? This book offers an in-depth look at border security in the US and worldwide after 9/11. The book contributes to debates within political science on sovereignty, citizenship, cosmopolitanism, big data, new security technologies, human rights and global justice.
