Borders and Control: Negotiating Mobility, Security, and Rights in Digital Regimes
Abstract
Despite millions crossing the border, the right of mobility has been restricted in lieu of states' discretion based on their sovereignty. This brings the authors to the age-old debate on mobility and border control. Amidst the tussle between the human right of mobility and the sovereign right of nation-states, the role of technology continues to influence the security lens of nation-states' borders. Recently, the EU, USA, Canada, Australia and other host countries installed digital border measures. A cross jurisdictional study of the above mentioned four jurisdictions highlight the surveillance and information-sharing system deployed at borders. The aim of the chapter is to assess the systemic efficiency of Digital Border Governance in Global North and South as means of securitization. Digital border governance brings an inevitable risk of abuse of data obtained at borders which can be remedied only via means of an inclusive regime built on the three pillars of fairness, transparency, and cooperation.
