Wende Museum Will Host Bosworth – The Logistics of Border Control

With the challenges and controversies of the U.S. border getting a lot of airtime, a very timely conversation will be happening this the Wende Museum on Saturday, August 3, 2024 at 2 p.m. “We are excited to host Professor Mary Bosworth of the University of Oxford, who will explore the logistics of border control in the UK and the US. Bosworth will explain how border control operates like a business, with easily replaceable workers, financial goals, and incentives. She will compare deportation practices in both countries, highlighting how these systems are a mix of public and private efforts. Like all logistic systems, these are designed with failure built in.”

Viewing border control as a type of labor and a marketplace opens up new ways to understand and critique these practices.

Don’t miss this opportunity to gain a fresh perspective on the complexities of border logistics.
