At a glance, 'borders' and 'boundaries' may seem synonymous. But in
the real (geopolitical) world, they coexist as distinct, albeit
overlapping entities: the former a state's delimitation of
territory; the latter the social delineation of differences. The
refugee crisis in Europe showed how racial and ethnic boundaries
are often instrumentalised to justify the strengthening of state
borders - regardless of the cost in human life. But there are
other, less tragic, examples that illustrate this overlapping as
well, and ultimately demonstrate that the oft-differentiated
spheres of borders and boundaries are best understood through their
relationship to one another. Deepening Divides explores this
relationship from many distinct perspectives and national contexts,
with case studies covering five continents and drawing on
anthropology, gender studies, law, political science and sociology
for a truly interdisciplinary collection.
