2009/4 - Reimagining Borders

[Login]

Today's many borders - physical and psychological, political and social, cultural and ideological - are no longer fixed or impermeable. Overcoming them is mainly about overcoming the socially constructed limitations of belonging to a certain place and going beyond what is apparently sure and secure. Borderlands are places of negotiation that need communication if there is to be safe passage.
