Borders: Frontiers of Identity, Nation and State

By Hastings Donnan, Thomas M. Wilson, Thomas Wilson

Book Overview

Borders are where wars start, as Primo Levi once wrote. But they are also bridges - that is, sites for ongoing cultural exchange. Anyone studying how nations and states maintain distinct identities while adapting to new ideas and experiences knows that borders provide particularly revealing windows for the analysis of 'self' and 'other'.
