  • Summary

  • with İlkay Yılmaz hosted by Sam Dolbee
    | Passports are objects at once momentous and mundane. How did they come about in the late Ottoman Empire? In this episode, İlkay Yılmaz discusses the history of this technology, and how the state effort to manage information about identity and control people's movement emerged alongside international police efforts to control anarchist and revolutionary subjects between different empires in the late nineteenth century.

She also discusses how these state efforts to limit people's movement through the technology of the passport have echoes in the present, even in her own life. « Click for More »
