Our passport marks the junction between the physical and the juristic body. As the border space, in which the items "identity" and "identification" overlap, the passport takes the role of a social skin. The relation between the government/ office and the individual owner of the passport is defined very clearly: "This passport is property of the Federal Republic of Germany". The passport becomes the direct expression of the power of definition which decides who is "German" and who is "Non-German", who is "European" and who is "Non-European", who is "legal" and who is "illegal"?
