This book critically challenges the usual territorial understanding
of borders by examining the often messy internal, transborder,
ambiguous, and in-between spaces that co-exist with traditional
borders. By considering those less visible aspects of borders, the
book develops an inclusive understanding of how contemporary
borders are structured and how they influence human identity,
mobility, and belonging. The introduction and conclusion provide
theoretical and contextual framing, while chapters explore topics
of global labor and refugees, unrecognized states, ethnic networks,
cyberspace, transboundary resource conflicts, and indigenous and
religious spaces that rarely register on conventional maps or
commonplace understandings of territory. In the end, the volume
demonstrates that, despite being "invisible" on most maps, these
borders have a very real, material, and tangible presence and
consequences for those people who live within, alongside, and
across them.
