Contestations along frontiers in East Africa (B03)

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

B03 applies the concept of frontiers – shifting socio-spatial boundaries, defined by an expansive social order that is pushing into new terrain – to analyse the relations between future-making and dynamics of violence in East Africa. In phase 2 the concept is turned into an analytical tool for undertaking systematic and comparative empirical research of development corridors in Kenya and Tanzania. By investigating the interrelations between future-making practices at frontiers and violence, the project contributes to the debate on boundary-making as one of the CRC’s bridging concepts.
