本文探讨了英国旨在控制犯罪移民的制度实践，并提出了三个论点。首先，自 20 世纪 70 年代初以来，这些做法已经演变成一种不同于国内刑事司法系统的定制“犯罪移民控制系统”。其次，该制度专门针对有效的排除和控制；通过adiaphorization的过程，对创造“真正敌对环境”的道德反对已经被消除。第三，对被定罪的移民——全球公认的“民间恶魔”——的追捕为国内和全球治安、惩罚和排斥制度之间提供了重要的联系。英国的犯罪移民控制系统是全球范围内负责控制可疑人口的机构正在开展的更广泛流程的一个例子。
This article examines institutional practices designed to control criminalized migrants in the UK and advances three arguments. First, these practices have evolved, since the early 1970s, into a bespoke ‘crimmigration control system’ distinct from the domestic criminal justice system. Second, this system is directed exclusively at efficient exclusion and control; through a process of adiaphorization, moral objections to the creation of a ‘really hostile environment’ have been disabled. Third, the pursuit of the criminalized immigrant—a globally recognized ‘folk devil’—provides a vital link between domestic and global systems of policing, punishment and exclusion. The UK crimmigration control system is an example of wider processes that are taking place in institutions concerned with the control of suspect populations across the globe.
