Borders sit at the center of global politics. Yet they are too often understood as thin lines, as they appear on maps, rather than as political institutions in their own right. This book takes a detailed look at the evolution of border security in the United States after 9/11. Far from the walls and fences that dominate the news, it reveals borders to be thick, multi-faceted and binational institutions that have evolved greatly in recent decades. The book contributes to debates within political science on sovereignty, citizenship, cosmopolitanism, human rights and global justice. In particular, the new politics of borders reveal a sovereignty that is not waning, but changing, expanding beyond the state carapace and engaging certain logics of empire.

Comment penser la frontière ? Franchir les frontières pour échapper à la misère et à la guerre ; établir des frontières pour dessiner les contours de l'Etat-nation ; fermer les frontières pour se protéger d'envahisseurs ; rêver sur la frontière, à un monde plus ouvert de libre circulation... En ce début de XXIe siècle, jamais la frontière n'a été à ce point un lieu de controverse, d'espoir, de critiques. Une ligne qu'il faut atteindre, renforcer ou détruire. Le philosophe et l'historien peuvent nous aider à appréhender cette réalité complexe et contradictoire: un débat qui fait histoire entre Régis Debray et Benjamin Stora.

Why is it that we so readily accept the boundary lines drawn around nations or around regions like 'Asia' as though they were natural and self-evident, when in fact they are so mutable and often so very arbitrary? What happens to people not only when the borders they seek to cross become heavily guarded, but also when new borders are drawn straight through the middle of their lives? The essays in this book address these questions by starting from small places on the borderlands of East Asia and looking outwards from the small towards the large, asking what these 'minor pasts' tell us about the grand narratives of history. In the process, it takes the reader on a journey from Renaissance European visions of 'Tartary', through nineteenth-century racial theorising, imperial cartography and indigenous experiences of modernity, to contemporary debates about Big History in an age of environmental crisis.
