The goal of the course is a critical engagement with the history and recent rise of border studies in anthropology and beyond. Starting with early works and forerunners, such as Cole's and Wolf's 'Hidden Frontier', Frederik Barth's work on boundaries, or studies of the Mexican border, the seminar will focus on recent theories and ethnographies of borders as well as interdisciplinary ontologies/epistemologies of border studies.
The students will have the opportunity to explore the complexity and paradoxes of borders in relation to the following thematic foci: theorizing the state through its border regimes; the legacy of imperial/colonial frontiers; the political economy of borders; nationalism and socio-cultural diversity in border regions; borders and/as social practice (mapping, imagining, bordering); historical and present-day patterns of cross-border migration; and border and the ongoing 'refugee crisis'. The seminar will apply a systematic comparative approach in order to enable insights through contrasting and discussing different cases of borders dynamics and constellations.
The seminar will include a focus on (Eastern) European and Mediterranean borders and will thus offer a space to discuss and reflect upon the on-going European/Mediterranean 'border crisis'.Didactic Methods: Input Lectures, close reading sessions, presentations, guest talk(s), film
