- This special issue on Care and Control in Asian Migrations, including the joint authored introduction and standalone article, grow out of the British Academy funded research project, ‘Big Data, Live Methods and Surveillance Subjectivities’. The standalone article, ‘Beyond the Seeing Eye’ emerges in particular out of empirical data produced through collaborative research on Filipino migrants’ awareness of and perceptions about surveillance travelling to and living in Hong Kong. An early presentation of that material led to further conceptual development with Johan Lindquist at Stockholm University reflecting on and theorising ethnographically the relationship between relations of care and control as they emerge within process of different sorts of migration in South and South East Asia. We sought additional funding from the Forum from Asian Studies at Stockholm University to convene two workshops, one at Stockholm and one at Goldsmiths, drawing together a range of scholars internationally to reflect on that relation from the vantage point and perspective of a range of situations they were studying and researching. The introduction draws both on the initial conceptual work done in framing the workshop and in response to collective discussions that emerged within the workshops and in response to the workshop discussant, Nicole Constable.
