Governing borders in France: From extraterritorial to humanitarian confinement.

In the western states, restrictive migration policies of the last thirty years have resulted in a change in control practices, leading to the construction of detention facilities at borders. Incarceration borders raises a significant question about human rights, issues involving the concepts of legality and legitimacy as well as the definition of new technologies of government. In France, the Origins of Border confinement demonstrate how existing administrative practices have been legalized with the adoption of «waiting zones», new system of detention that enhanced prison conditions and the disciplinary control over inmates. For activists who claim human rights and opposing incarceration border since the mid-1970s, this development is paradoxical and gains a difficult dilemma: the rights granted by the state to travelers detained border have remained inadequate while legalization has led to the creation of new control mechanisms. The study of the border confinement involves an analysis of the paradoxes created by constant negotiations between, on one hand, an administration willing to tighten its control over the borders and, secondly, some civilian groups whose concerns include the basic rights and the legal framework of practical control. Conditions of exclusion processes of legal administration are underlined, in France, by the spreading patterns of the prison administration and the ambiguity of the law. What do these processes reveal about the evolution of government systems within systems based on liberal rights?
