摘要

本文探讨了讲故事和魔法在英国移民警务中的地位。“移民故事”对于掌握叙事在移民警务中的作用非常重要。虽然这种形式的知识旨在使复杂的社会世界变得清晰可辨,但它也暴露了它的局限性。移民执法实践并没有产生一个认知模板来理解这个无边无际的世界,而是显示出难以辨认是这个国家的一个标志。移民官员的工作被危险和武断的做法和规则所主导⸻我称之为“移民魔法”⸻,这往往使他们缺乏权力和控制。作为对南部边境犯罪学的一次练习,我在对南部和北部的国家以及国家和社会进行理论化的过程中,对公认的劳动分工进行了质疑。在这样做的过程中,我试图将这个北方的警察官僚机构向未被探索的维度和角度开放,因为一线工作人员的任务是将国家权力重新空间化。

Storytelling and Magic: Meaning Making in Immigration Policing
This article explores the place of storytelling and magic in immigration policing in the United Kingdom. ‘Immigration stories’ are important for grasping the role of narratives in migration policing. While aimed at rendering a complex social world legible, this form of knowledge reveals its limitations. Rather than producing a cognitive template to make sense of a boundless world, immigration enforcement practices show illegibility as a hallmark of the state. The work of immigration officers is dominated by hazardous and arbitrary practices and rules⸻which I call ‘immigration magic’⸻which often leave them devoid of power and control. As an exercise in southernising border criminology, I interrogate the received division of labour in theorising the state in the south and north, on the one hand, and state and society on the other. In doing so, I seek to lay this northern policing bureaucracy open to underexplored dimensions and angles, as frontline staff are tasked with re-spatialising state power.
