Border Politics in a Global Era

Meer over het boek

Focusing on trade, migration, and security, this analysis explores the dynamics of border people and borderlands in both the North and post-colonial South. Drawing from decades of firsthand observations, it emphasizes the role of state governance, the impact of independence duration, and the discretionary practices of border bureaucrats in shaping these regions. Staudt's work offers a nuanced understanding of how borders influence the lives and interactions of communities across different contexts.
