与这一时期的可怕经历有关的记忆可能会保留下来,并成为未来很长一段时间日常生活的特征。这本书有点分裂的意义上说,第一部分侧重于更多的理论解释的边界,而历史和经验的部分在很大程度上走自己的轨道。遗憾的是,理论观点很少与经验部分进行对话。总之,纳什、里德和格雷厄姆写了一本刺激而详细的书,并能够在很短的篇幅(157页)内表达他们的信息。看到一本关于边疆的书,认真对待历史,同时为边疆人民发声,令人耳目一新。与当代许多关于边界的文本相反,这本书也非常没有术语。
memories related to the dreadful experiences during this period are likely to remain and characterize everyday lives long into the future. The book is somewhat divided in the sense that the first section focuses on more theoretical interpretations of borders, while the historical and empirical sections go largely on their own track. It is a pity that the theoretical perspectives are rarely set into a dialogue with the empirical part. To conclude, Nash, Reid and Graham have written a stimulating and detailed book and have been able to pack their message in a short space (157 pages). It is refreshing to see a volume on a borderland that takes history seriously and at the same time gives voice to borderland people. Contrary to many contemporary texts on borders this book is also very much jargon-free.
