Description
Border as Method, or, the Multiplication of Labor by Sandro Mezzadra and Brett Neilson explores how contemporary globalization has led to an increase in borders, affecting migratory movements, capitalist transformations, and political life. The authors examine the violence surrounding borderlands and border struggles across various geographical scales, using case studies from Europe, Asia, the Pacific, the Americas, and elsewhere to illustrate their arguments. Mezzadra and Neilson approach the border not only as a research object but also as an epistemic framework, using it as a method to gain new perspectives on the crisis of the nation-state and transform our understanding of concepts like citizenship and sovereignty. This book offers powerful reassessments of these ideas and sheds light on the complexities of borders in the modern world. By analyzing the proliferation of borders, Mezzadra and Neilson provide valuable insights into the implications of globalization for political life and social movements.
