摘要以罗马尼亚公民在法国的案例为例，本文记录和分析了用于将欧盟公民驱逐出申根边境和欧盟领土内的数字方法和传统警察活动。欧盟法律和申根法规支持各国在移民治理和警察工作中实施高科技方法。我们与法国和罗马尼亚的几个警察单位进行的实地调查表明，由于政策执行限制(缺乏对数字需求的立法调整)、管理不善(培训边境人员、分配资源)和政治决策(协调或相互竞争的叙述)，所谓的通过犯罪移民对流动进行的“受控”管理与申根边境实际的混乱之间存在差距。尽管在驱逐过程中促进了尖端技术，但传统技术和文书工作仍然相关。这引发了关于传统技术与高度推广的控制技术之间的联系的问题。虽然后者改变了驱逐程序的运作，但这些改变并不一定使前者毫无用处。在实践中，这项工作由警察和基层官僚自行决定，他们以“法治”的名义解释、制定和执行规范和条例。
ABSTRACT Taking the case of Romanian citizens in France, this article documents and analyses the digital methods and traditional police activities used for the deportation of EU citizens across the Schengen border and within EU territory. EU laws and Schengen regulations support states’ implementation of high-tech methods in migration governance and police work. Our fieldwork, conducted with several police units in France and Romania, indicates a gap between the claimed ‘controlled’ management of mobility through crimmigration and the actual messiness at the Schengen border as a result of policy implementation limitations (lack of legislative adjustment to digital demands), poor administration (training of border agents, allocating resources) and political decisions (harmonisation or competing narratives). Despite the promotion of cutting-edge technologies in the deportation process, traditional techniques as well as paperwork remain relevant. This raises questions regarding the articulations of traditional techniques with highly promoted control technologies. While the latter has modified the functioning of the deportation process, these changes do not necessarily make the former useless. In practice, this work is left to the discretion of police officers and ground-level bureaucrats who interpret, create and enforce norms and regulations in the name of ‘the rule of law’.
