The authors discuss borders as sites where human mobility has been and is being controlled by biomedical means, both historically and in the present. Three types of border control technologies for preventing the spread of disease are considered: quarantine, containment and the biomedical selection of migrants and refugees. These different types of border control technologies are not exclusive of one another, nor do they necessarily lead to total restrictions on movement. Instead of a simplifying logic of exclusion-inclusion, this volume turns the focus towards the multilayered entanglement of medical regimes in attempts at managing the porosity of the borders. State and institutional responses to the COVID-19 pandemic provide evidence for the topicality of such attempts. Using interdisciplinary approaches, the chapters scrutinise ways in which concerns and policies of disease prevention shift or multiply borders, as well as connecting or disconnecting places. The authors address several questions: to what degree has containment for medical reasons operated as a bordering process in different historical periods including the classical quarantine in the Mediterranean and south-eastern Europe, in the Nazi-era, and in postcolonial UK? Moreover, do understandings of disease and the policies for selecting migrants and refugees draw on both border regimes and humanitarianism, and what factors put limits on the technologies of selection? aAll rights reserveduhttp://oapen.org/content/about-rights aEnglish 7aHistory of medicine2bicssc 7aMedical anthropology2bicssc 7aMigration, immigration & emigration2bicssc 7aSocial & cultural anthropology, ethnography2bicssc aquarantine; containment; biomedical selection; COVID-19; camp; racialisation; migration; refugees; medicalised borders; health security1 aPromitzer, Christian4edt1 aPromitzer, Christian4oth1 aTrubeta, Sevasti4oth1 aWeindling, Paul4edt1 aWeindling, Paul4oth0 aDOAB Library.40uhttps://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/7087370zFree-to-read: DOAB: description of the publication c92902d92902
