Description
Take a closer look at geographical and cultural borders and understand their effects on people who occupy them or cross them.
Learn what borders are and what motivates people to cross them
When thinking of borders, images of division often come to mind. This introductory course will help you learn how borders can both divide and connect territories or people.
You’ll encounter and discuss a range of different borders and employ theories to analyse and explain the functions and effects of different borders on space, and individuals who occupy them and cross them. You’ll explore different circumstances of crossing borders focusing on motivations such as travel or immigration and understand the effects of the invisible borders we all cross everyday.
