Description
Undocumented: The Architecture of Migrant Detention details the banality and violence of the architecture of these centres and contrasts them with stories of daily resistance among immigration detainees. This book explores migrant detention centres, a global industry and the fastest growing incarceration sector in North America's prison industrial complex, and questions the role of architectural design in the control and management of migrants in such spaces. Using the conventional architectural tools of representation, the book draws from the shadows the silenced voices of those who are detained and it confronts the anonymous individuals who design spaces of confinement. - from Amzon
