An island's boundary - where it meets the sea - is self-evident and
non-negotiable. But a land boundary is contestable: it can be
changed and shifted to suit, reflecting power politics, the outcome
of victor and vanquished in warfare, or negotiated compromise.
There are today only ten inhabited islands where both these
dynamics pan out. This text is the first to focus on the intriguing
political economy of these rare, shared island spaces. It examines
the fascination, and obsession, with islands as unitary geographies
and polities; and explores the tensions in contemporary 'divided
islands' - as in the case of formal and informal, legal and illegal
'border crossings' and practices - from both 'island studies' and
'international relations' perspectives.
