This article speaks to debates in international political sociology that critically interrogate the ongoing digitization of border controls through the deployment of surveillance technologies that render mobility intelligible and governable. Our contribution to these debates is both empirical and conceptual. Empirically, we explore not only how surveillance is enacted but also how it is contested and fails to meet its stated objectives. We do so by focusing on two technologies that support the visibilization of maritime borderzones and mobilities: satellites and drones. Conceptually, our contribution revolves around the kinopolitical character of maritime surveillance and the productive power of technologically mediated vision. We synthesize Nail's work on kinopolitics with ideas inspired by Foucauldian studies on governmentality to develop the following argument: satellites and drones are technologies of power embedded within a kinopolitical regime of maritime surveillance, which strategizes vision in attempts to govern subjects and objects on the move—attempts that challenge any clear-cut distinction between security controls and humanitarian interventions in the field of border management.

感知和控制海上流动。技术、运动政治和愿景的政府化

本文讨论了国际政治社会学中的辩论，这些辩论通过部署使出行变得可理解和可管理的监视技术，批判性地质疑边境控制的持续数字化。我们对这些辩论的贡献既是经验性的，也是概念性的。根据经验，我们不仅探讨了监视是如何制定的，而且还探讨了它是如何受到质疑和未能实现其既定目标的。我们通过专注于支持海上边界区域和流动性可视化的两种技术来做到这一点：卫星和无人机。从概念上讲，我们的贡献围绕着海上监视的运动政治特征和以技术为媒介的视觉的生产力。我们合成 Nail'
