Description

Explore the history of how official agencies certify who we are. Documenting Individual Identity: The Development of State Practices in the Modern World provides a deep look into the mechanisms used to track and verify people across the globe. This volume covers a wide range of topics, from traditional passports and identity cards to labor registration and alien documentation. Readers will learn about the evolution of identity through fingerprinting and modern developments like DNA-typing and body surveillance. The book also examines the serious consequences of identity documentation, such as the impact of colonial-era practices in postcolonial Rwanda. Featuring nineteen essays, this work offers a comprehensive historical overview of a subject that affects almost every aspect of modern life. It is an essential resource for those interested in anthropology, sociology, and the legal processes that shape our world.
