About this product

Product Information

This volume addresses the marked influence that African borders and boundaries, whether real or imaginary, have on the lives of those inhabiting the borderland. How do political and symbolic borders take concrete shape, and how do they bear on daily life? Conversely, how does life in the borderland shape the borders that characterize it? The book recognizes borderlands as shifting places, times, or domains where competing discourses and regimes of power overlap. Characterized by overt contradiction and paradox, they are often imagined at the outside. Yet, they pertain to and define the center. The collected case studies challenge the assumption that states and anymized institutions are the principal actors in border-making. Instead, they argue for an actor-oriented perspective, while drawing attention to the physicality of the borderscape. (Series: African Studies / Afrikanische Studien - Vol. 40)
