当今世界的国际边界比以往任何时候都多。当人们考虑到这些边界对数十亿人生活、工作和旅行方式的影响时，这是一个重要的事实。然而，尽管国际边界的倍增是一个重要的发展，但它本身并不是全球学术界比较边界研究起源和演变背后的指导性要求。边界的扩散，以及创造和促进其发展的许多力量，共同吸引了来自所有人文和社会科学的学者，共同关注国家和国家边界处发生的事情，以及由于边界而发生的事情，并扩展到其他地缘政治边界和边界，例如城市，地区和超国家政体。他们的兴趣一直是在特定的边界，边疆和边疆地区发生了什么，因为它已经在什么边界帮助我们理解的主要力量的变化，似乎是席卷地球仪，力量往往包括作为全球化的方面，但也可以被视为新自由主义，新帝国主义，后期现代资本主义和超民族主义。在这些利益和观点，边界研究学者进入与所有那些谁愿意了解新的自由，新的运动，新的流动性，新的身份，新的公民身份和资本，劳动和消费的新形式的对话。边境研究本身已经变得很重要，因为学者和政策制定者都认识到，对国家和国际政治经济不断变化的条件至关重要的大多数事情都发生在边境地区--就像我们每个民族国家几乎其他地方所做的那样--但其中一些事情，例如与移民、商业、走私和安全有关的事情，可能在边境地区发现更清晰的浮雕。有些国家的重要性，可以最经常和最好的发现在边境地区。本书是一本论文集，代表了边界研究从何而来和向何处去的观点，反映了当前的边界状况。
There are more international borders in the world today than ever there were before. This is a signifi cant fact when one considers the impact of these many borders on the ways in which the billions of people encompassed by them live, work and travel. As important a development as this multiplication in international borders is, however, it alone is not the guiding imperative behind the origin and evolution of comparative border studies in scholarship worldwide. The proliferation of borders, and the many forces that have created and fostered their development, together have drawn scholars from all the humanities and social sciences to a mutual interest in what happens at, across and because of the borders to nations and states, and in extension to other geopolitical borders and boundaries, such as those of cities, regions and supranational polities. Their interest has been as much in what happens at specifi c borders, frontiers and borderlands as it has been in what borders help us to understand of major forces of change that seem to be sweeping the globe, forces often included as aspects of globalization, but which may also be seen as neoliberalism, neo - imperialism, late modern capitalism, and supranationalism. Within these interests and perspectives, border studies scholars enter into dialogue with all those who wish to understand new liberties, new movements, new mobilities, new identities, new citizenships and new forms of capital, labor and consumption. Border studies have become signifi cant themselves because scholars and policy - makers alike have recognized that most things that are important to the changing conditions of national and international political economy take place in borderlands – as they do in like measure almost everywhere else in each of our national states – but some of these things, for instance those related to migration, commerce, smuggling and security, may be found in borderlands in sharper relief. And some things of national importance can be most often and best found in borderlands. This book, a collection of essays that represent views both of where border studies have come from and where they are going, refl ects the current state of border
