Fabrica mundi : producing the world by drawing borders

Sandro Mezzadra, Brett Neilson

Research output: Chapter in Book / Conference PaperChapter

Abstract

In recent years borders have become an important concern not only of research but also of political and artistic practice. Contrary to the vision of a borderless world that shaped debates on globalization in the 1990s, there is today a pronounced awareness of the increasing presence of borders. This article presents excerpts from a forthcoming book titled "Border as method, or, the multiplication of labor" that charts this proliferation of borders, investigating its implications for migratory movements, capitalist transformations, and political life.
