Sum
 mary
Recent escalations in migration control involve the criminalization o
 f non-citizens. In assessing this punitive turn criminologists have highli
 ghted drastic expansions in state sovereignty and coercion. Focusing on th
 e Australian context\, this talk examines a less noticed trend: the civili
 anization of migration policing. To facilitate irregular migrants removal\
 , the government has created tip-lines that encourage private citizens to 
 conduct surveillance and anonymously ‘dob-in’ or report unlawful non-c
 itizens.
Approaching the initiative as a distinct responsibilization strat
 egy that enrolls the entire citizen body as policing agents\, I explore it
 s instrumental and symbolic goals\, whether expanding official gazes or re
 storing an exclusive sense of national citizenship. Assessing the function
 s and effects of public vigilance reveals important tensions and ambiguiti
 es within the responsibilization process. In particular it demonstrates ho
 w ‘adaptive’ approaches to order maintenance are not external to\, but
  potentially promote and perpetuate\, punitive forms of sovereign power.
