This book addresses the recent evolution of borderlines around the
world as an attempt to control transnational movements with a view
to securitization of borders rooted in the need to control mobility
and preserve national identities. This book moves beyond physical
borders and studies new manifestations of borders such as
technological and symbolic walls. It brings together scholars from
various academic fields such as geography, political science, and
border studies to examine the various movements, functions and
articulations of international borders. It explores two main
issues: how international borders have become enforced lines of
demarcation and division, reinforcing national identity and
impacting national and regional dynamics; and the material and
immaterial, discursive and concrete expressions of borders and the
impacts of the transformation of bodies into threat to be
monitored, as daily lives become sites of border enforcement.
Offering multidisciplinary insights on the growing phenomenon of
border walls, this book will be of interest to undergraduate and
postgraduate students of Border Studies, European Studies,
International Relations, Political Geography, and Regional Studies.
