This article explores internal border controls in 1980s Britain, examining how they were conceptualised and resisted by a group of activists, the Group. Drawing on archival research conducted at the Hull History Centre and the Institute of Race Relations and focusing analysis on the Group's public-facing information leaflets and bulletins, this article explores how internal border controls created differentiated access to employment and the welfare state, targeting migrant and racialised residents and citizens. The Group's framing and analysis, in particular their use of pass laws as a frame through which to apprehend the spread of internal border controls, this article argues, allows us to draw out the continuities between policies developed to maintain colonial rule and those present in the metropole.
本文探讨了20世纪80年代英国的内部边境管控，研究了一群活动家（该组织）是如何对其进行概念化以及抵制的。通过在赫尔历史中心和种族关系研究所进行的档案研究，并将分析重点放在该组织面向公众的信息传单和公告上，本文探讨了内部边境管控如何造成了就业和福利国家的差异化获取，将移民以及被种族化的居民和公民作为目标。本文认为，该组织的框架和分析，尤其是他们将通行证法作为一种框架来理解内部边境管控的蔓延，使我们能够梳理出为维持殖民统治而制定的政策与宗主国现行政策之间的连续性。
