Crossing Borders examines how translocal, transnational, and
internal borders of various kinds distribute uneven capabilities
for moving, dwelling, and circulating. The contributors offer
nuanced understandings of the politics of mobility across various
kinds of borders and forms of cultural circulation, showing how
people experience and practice crossing many different borders.
Several chapters draw on interviews and ethnographic methods to
analyze transnational migration, while others focus on material
relations and cultural practices. Rather than the usual narrative
of mobility as a kind of freedom, border crossing emerges here as
an instrumental practice for building translocal livelihoods, a
tactic for simply getting by, and a material practice potentially
generating new forms of future sociality. Ultimately these diverse
perspectives on crossing borders offer new ways to think about the
mobility of political relations and the politics of mobile
relations in a world of growing circulation across borders, but
also flexible forms of (re)bordering. This book was originally
published as a special issue of Mobilities.
