Border, Region, Border studies, Analytical dimensionsAbstract
Borderis a legal concept, relevant in the structure of modern national states. This notion has been used in different fields, such as literature and journalism. In addition, this concept has been contemplated in geopolitics, history and sociology since the late nineteenth century. Lately, it is also the label of an emerging field of interdisciplinary studies, and with multiple theoretical-methodological approaches. For this reason, the border has acquired great lability as a concept, as well as a myriad of definitions. This article introduces a reflection on these issues and presents, still in an introductory way, other concepts that offer great heuristic potential, such as wall, frontand periphery, among others. Furthermore, it seeks to state that the study of bordersis enriched when done in parallel to the study of regions. Finally, it aims to expose different dimensions to think bordersfrom a renewed perspective of geography.
