WiSe 15/16: Ringvorlesung Borders in Motion - Fronteras en Movimiento

Jessica Gienow-Hecht, Marianne Braig

Kommentar

"Borders in Motion -- Fronteras en Movimiento.“ Borders are and have always been in motion. Their shape and design depend on the political and economic context, scientific knowledge, natural adjustments as well as the migration and exchange of people, goods, services, and capital. Experts have labeled some borders – such as the one between Mexico and the United States or the Pacific Rim – as transnational spaces per se: their effect on international policy and adjacent states is not merely limited to the border region itself but fundamentally impacts our understanding of the state, citizenship, nation, and culture. The lecture series seeks to explore the concept of borders in motion and their relevance for the disciplines of the humanities and the social sciences with a particular eye on the North and Latin American contexts. Contributions should explore the historical conditions, contingencies and valences of borders in motion as a field of communication and interaction (political and cultural exchange, military confrontation, interstate diplomacy, mediascapes) to highlight processes of transnationalism, translocalism, translation and the reconfiguration of borders.
