In Asia, where authoritarian-developmental states have
proliferated, statehood and social control are heavily contested in
borderland spaces. As a result, in the post-Cold War world, borders
have not only redefined Asian incomes and mobilities, they have
also rekindled neighbouring relations and raised questions about
citizenship and security. The contributors to the Routledge
Handbook of Asian Borderlands highlight some of these processes
taking place at the fringe of the state. Offering an array of
comparative perspectives of Asian borders and borderlands in the
global context, this handbook is divided into thematic sections,
including: Livelihoods, commodities and mobilities Physical land
use and agrarian transformations Borders and boundaries of the
state and the notion of statelessness Re-conceptualizing trade and
the economy in the borderlands The existence and influence of
humanitarians, religions, and NGOs The militarization of
borderlands Causing us to rethink and fundamentally question some
of the categories of state, nation, and the economy, this is an
important resource for students and scholars of Asian Studies,
Border Studies, Social and Cultural Studies, and Anthropology.
