- Summary:
-
"Borders represent an intriguing paradox as globalization continues to leap barriers at a vigorous pace, yet the political boundaries separating peoples remain pervasive and problematic. As the first text to explore global borders, this reader brings together key essays on border societies, politics, and economies to explore this complex dynamic. With its accessible essays, this text will allow professors in a variety of courses to easily globalize their classrooms. The readings have been carefully selected to appeal to undergraduates, offering theoretical concepts for understanding the overarching context of globalization as well as focusing on the experiences of specific peoples and communities."--BOOK JACKET.
