À propos de l'événement

The Covid-19 pandemics has shed light and exacerbated pre-existing global regimes of surveillance articulating state bio-political power and the increasingly invasive tech-enabled security industry. This webinar will discuss how ethno-racialized populations such as Uighurs in North-West China or immigrants in the US have become the targets of processes of “digital enclosure” and “digital confinement”. It will also explore what effects these complex configurations of surveillance produce and how they are being resisted.
