Description

Borderland studies have emerged as a subfield of Political Science and International Relations. Fixed clear borders are a relatively recent phenomenon and are human constructs, results of politics, geography and power plays. The borderland has historically served as a route for armies, wars and more recently non-state interventions and terrorism. Although, people living on borderlands have always shared a longer history of social interactions, economic and political relations as the population belong to the same ethnicity, culture and in some cases same religion.
