International borders are among the most significant political
inventions of modern times. The borders between national states are
not just important to the peoples and governments who face each
other across the borderline – any international border can become
a regional hotspot of global concern. But aside from the
significant role borders play in national and international
affairs, borders are also places and spaces where people live,
work, raise families, and build businesses. Written for students
across disciplines, Borders, Boundaries, Frontiers introduces
readers to the study of borders and border cultures. Thomas M.
Wilson examines both historical foundations and current
developments in the field, with an emphasis on anthropological
contributions. Ultimately, Borders, Boundaries, Frontiers
encourages students to explore the role anthropology plays in the
understanding of contemporary borders.
