Europe's borders have always been historically ambiguous and
dynamic, whereby borders shift and change character and new borders
replace older ones. By focusing upon the title question 'where are
Europe's new borders', this volume looks at the present state of
European bordering and questions the often taken for granted
relationships between borders, borderers and the bordered. While
each chapter concentrates on a different (but overlapping) border
issue or perspective, they are united through their focus on the
level of everyday bordering practices and experiences, as well as
the meaning that borders have upon all stakeholders and the
relationships between them. To talk about border meaning (including
the perspective of the researchers themselves), and how that
meaning continually (re)creates and is (re)created by bordering
practices, is to critically question where important borders lie,
why and for whom do they matter and how are they imposed,
maintained and resisted. As a result the chapters engage with
issues of border violence, the power of maps and symbols
(carto-politics), migrant mobility, gender and the rise of the far
right in Europe. Taken together this edited collection will be of
interest to border scholars as well as students of European
politics more generally. This book was previously published as a
special issue of the Journal of Contemporary European Studies.
