System of Systems is a research project initiated in 2016 by Rebecca Glyn-Blanco, Maria McLintock and Danae Io, that analyses the bureaucratic, spatial, and technological conditions shaping Europe’s migration landscape. The publication series Managing Displacement that stems from it, explores the intricate web of migration management within and beyond Europe’s borders. Each publication begins with a theme or term to examine processes that restrict, surveil, or obscure displaced people. The first publication, Outsourcing, examines how the EU extends its borders beyond the continent by outsourcing border control. Recognizing this practice within a historical trajectory of colonial ordering, it shows how responsibility is systematically deferred and how racist structures are propagated through border management. The second publication, Extraction, offers a transhistorical perspective on contemporary border systems. The contributions explore extraction as a process that drives displacement, with enduring effects due to environmental devastation. They also examine extraction as a direct mechanism of border management that financially profits from those who are displaced.
