Throughout major airports across the United States, Canada, and countries in Europe, plans are under way for installing full-body scanners in response to the failed attempt by Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab to blow up an airplane travelling from Amsterdam to Detroit on Christmas Day 2009. Despite concerns from privacy groups and security experts that scanners will not enhance security, these nations are investing in this latest technological border control (Stone 2009). Canada will pay as much as $11 million for 44 scanners (Maccharles 2010a), while some forty scanners have already gone into 19 U.S. airports, with plans to increase the number… <\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

The mobility of people, objects, information, ideas, services, and capital has reached levels unprecedented in human history. Such forms of mobility are manifested in continued advances in communication and transportation capacities, in the growing use of digital and biometric technologies, in the movements of Indigenous, migrant, and women’s groups, and in the expansion of global capitalism into remote parts of the world. Mobilities, Knowledge, and Social Justice demonstrates how knowledge is mobilized and how people shape, and are shaped by, matters of mobility. Richly detailed and illuminating essays reveal the ways in which issues of mobility are at the centre of debates, ranging from practices of belonging to war and border security measures, from gender, race, and class matters to governance and international trade, and from citizenship and immigration policies to human rights. Contributors analyze how particular forms of mobility generate specific types of knowledge and give rise to claims for social justice. This collection reconsiders mobility as a key term in the social sciences and humanities by delineating new ways of understanding how mobility informs and shapes lives as well as social, cultural, and political relations within, across, and beyond states. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
