书籍简介

在《控制论边界》中，伊万·查尔·洛佩斯认为，美国殖民者国家需要生产并瞄准威胁帝国的种族化敌人。 控制论边界是通过数据捕获、存储、处理、流通和通信的实践来组织的，这些实践将国家构成一个有界的领土空间。 查尔·洛佩斯 (Chaar López) 回顾了从二十世纪中叶至今美国政府对墨西哥人、阿拉伯人和穆斯林使用边境执法技术的历史，展示了如何将数据系统作为未经授权越境的解决方案。 与无人机、智能墙、人工智能和生物识别技术所谓的中立性的持久幻想相反，控制论边界代表了种族暴力中计算和自动化的巩固。 查尔·洛佩斯借鉴了企业和政府记录、宣传文件和电影、技术报告、新闻报道、监控录像以及活动家和艺术家的实践。 这些材料揭示了敌对逻辑如何嵌入到塑造边境控制和现代主权的信息基础设施中。

In The Cybernetic Border, Iván Chaar López argues that the settler US nation requires the production and targeting of a racialized enemy that threatens the empire. The cybernetic border is organized through practices of data capture, storage, processing, circulation, and communication that constabulary bodies and constitute the nation as a bounded, territorial space. Chaar López historicizes the US government’s use of border enforcement technologies on Mexicans, Arabs, and Muslims from the mid-twentieth century to the present, showing how data systems are presented as solutions to unauthorized border crossing. Contrary to enduring fantasies of the purported neutrality of drones, smart walls, artificial intelligence, and biometric technologies, the cybernetic border represents the consolidation of calculation and automation in the exercise of racialized violence. Chaar López draws on corporate and government records, promotional documents and films, technical reports, news reporting, surveillance footage, and activist and artist practices. These materials reveal how logics of enmity are embedded into information infrastructures that shape border control and modern sovereignty.
