So much so that I occasionally ask around my family to see if anyone else is using my account to watch Care Bears or something. They may work for you, but generally? They don’t work for me. I stumbled upon Calibre in the unlikeliest of ways. He welcomes prospective doctoral projects including on innovative anthropological or interdisciplinary approaches to security, risk and human mobility.3.8 The 7 Moral Failings of the Movie Calibre Explained Prior to joining ODID, Ruben worked at the London School of Economics and at Stockholm University, where he remains an associated researcher. Taking as its starting point the conflict in Mali in the West African Sahel, it explores how the mapping of danger, the perception of risk and the politics of fear have all contributed to framing and fuelling security, aid and border interventions in the Sahel as well as in other settings such as Somalia, Libya and Afghanistan.īesides his academic output, Ruben frequently engages with wider audiences, for instance via reports on borders and security and commentary in the media. Ruben's latest book is No Go World: How fear is redrawing our maps and infecting our politics (University of California Press 2019). This book builds on Ruben's more recent research, financed by the AXA Research Fund, and looks comparatively at remote-controlled interventions and the selective withdrawal of international actors from global 'crisis zones'. The book shows how the ‘fight against irregular migration’ has fuelled distress and drama at the borders, which in turns has led to the expansion of a self-reinforcing industry of controls. His book Illegality, Inc.: Clandestine migration and the business of bordering Europe (University of California Press 2014), an ethnographic account of European efforts to halt irregular migration, accompanies border agencies, aid organisations and migrants along the Spanish-African borders. Ruben Andersson is an anthropologist working on migration, borders and security with a focus on the West African Sahel and southern Europe.
