*‘All migrants know that the reply to the question “Who on earth are you?”
is another question: “Where on earth are you?” And so they want what we’ve
got, a verified self that will transport them to our side of history.’ *
       ~ Frances Stonor Saunders

*Globalisation promised a borderless world, but it has delivered an age of
neurotically policed zones and cubicles. To cross a border legally now
involves an unprecedented level of scrutiny: fingerprint and iris scans,
chips embedded in your passport, hidden sensors to detect your heartbeat
and carbon dioxide emissions from thirty feet away, the tick-box
confessional of ‘Are you now or have you ever been . . .' **Frances Stonor
Saunders** inspects the complex apparatus of today’s border regimes and
their obsession with the verified self.  Frances Stonor Saunders’s piece in
this issue was delivered as the second of this year’s LRB Winter Lectures
at the British Museum. (Watch the video:
