Samenvatting

New ID card systems are proliferating. These may use digitized fingerprints or photos, may be contactless, using a scanner, and above all, may rely on computerized registries of personal information. This book argues that such IDs represent a fresh phase in the long-term attempts of modern states to find stable ways of identifying citizens.
