CfP TECNOSCIENZA Special Issue – Making public in the context of migration and border control. On securitization, non-citizenship, and secrecy
***Apologies for Crossposting*** Dear colleagues, we invite submissions for the Call for Papers "Making public in the context of migration and border control. On securitization, non-citizenship, and secrecy" to be published on Tecnoscienza - Italian Journal of Science and Technology Studies. Please, find the details below. *Deadline for abstract submissions: October 30th, 2023* Guest editors: Silvan Pollozek, European New School of Digital Studies Maria Ullrich, University of Bonn Olga Usachova, University of Padova The special issue (SI) focuses on the making and shaping of publics in the realm of migration and border control. In line with the open and critical approach of Tecnoscienza, it aims to foster dialogue at the intersection of STS and critical migration and border studies. On the one hand, it explores how STS inspired work on issue publics, heterogeneous collectives, and material forms of participation can stimulate research on migration and borders. On the other hand, it reflects upon frictions, limitations, and blind spots that arise when being translated from realms of techno science into those of security, non-citizenship, secrecy, and ignorance. It highlights discursive strategies, ambivalences, boundaries and (methodological) limitations, violence and resistance, and reflects upon the conditions of (im)possibility and the power effects regarding the socio-technical making and shaping of publics. We invite contributions that examine the conditions of (im)possibility, the becoming, and the shaping of publics in the realm of migration and border control. Contributions may refer to but also may go beyond the following topics: - publics and the the securitization and criminalization of migration - technologies as devices of engagement and participation as well as of surveillance and control - publics under conditions of non-citizenship and precarity - institutional hurdles and barriers of making publics - secrecy and (strategic) ignorance of migration and border control actors - politics of (non)accountability - publics in times of crisis *Link to the full call*: https://tecnoscienza.unibo.it/announcement/view/593 *Deadline for abstract submissions: October 30th, 2023* *Abstracts (in English) with a maximum length of 500 words should be sent as email attachments to tecnoscienza.specialissue@gmail.com and carbon copied to the guest editors. Notification of acceptance will be communicated by mid-November 2023. Full papers (in English with a maximum length of 8,000 words including notes and references) will be due by April 30th 2024 and will be subject to a double blind peer review process.* We expect to publish the special issue in 2025.
