A 1961 quote from Frantz Fanon, stating that the army and police form the pillars of the regime and are advised by foreign experts, is being cited to draw a parallel between colonial-era practices and today's police cooperation among EU states in the field of migration. Commenters are using the passage to argue that current European migration policing continues colonial patterns of external control.
Why now: Ongoing political disputes over EU migration policy and border policing are prompting comparisons with colonial rule.
