Border Agnotologies: Power, Technology, Resistance
This Special Issue dives into how borders not only produce knowledge but also actively generate ignorance, ambiguity, and non-knowledge. Through the lens of "border agnotologies," it uncovers how not-knowing is weaponized to control migration, obscure accountability, and reinforce power. The articles invite readers to rethink borders as sites of secrecy and resistance—where absence of knowledge is anything but accidental.

Conjuring a Blockchain Pilot: Ignorance and Innovation in Humanitarian Aid
Blockchain in refugee aid isn’t about tech — it’s about spectacle. Based on ethnographic research in Jordan, this article shows how a flashy pilot project was ‘conjured’ to impress donors, not to serve refugees. Strategic ignorance, illusion, and hype replace expertise. Behind promises of innovation lies a game of reputation, money, and power. Magic sells — even in humanitarian work.
