Exporting the Homeland: The global transformation of border control in the fight against illicit trade
- Introduction
- Theorizing supply chain security cooperation
- The reinvention of border control
- Transnational diffusion of a new policy paradigm
- Network effects and the exchange of sensitive information
- Conclusion
“Transgovernmental networks of customs and border agencies are progressively exchanging information and collaborating, either in mission-specific task forces, or by way of more enduring arrangements ... The territorially linear quality of borders is passing away in favour of increasingly connected and networked borders.”
