Elgar Research Agendas outline the future of research in a given
area. Leading scholars are given the space to explore their subject
in provocative ways, and map out the potential directions of
travel. They are relevant but also visionary. The power of borders
emerges not only from their institutional and legal nature but also
from their symbolic and identity-forming significance. This
innovative Research Agenda uncovers links between different levels
of border-making processes, or bordering, from the political to the
cognitive, and connects everyday processes and experiences of
border-making to the wider social world. Grounded in their original
research, contributors offer a variety of discussions on future
directions for border studies, including two areas which may prove
particularly fruitful; firstly, the question of the broader
political salience of borders and secondly, the ways in which the
border studies paradigm increasingly connects ontological and
ethical questions to processes of border-making. Taken together,
these address the question of how everyday bordering practices and
discourses can be productively linked to different aspects of
social relations. This timely book will be an invigorating read for
those studying borders across a wide range of disciplines including
human geography, political science, sociology, anthropology,
history, international law as well as the humanities, notably art,
media studies and philosophy.
