Moving beyond border studies paradigms dominated by the MexicoUS border, this collection aims to contextualise cultures and communities within a wider global understanding of border thinking. It builds on recent considerations of, and changes to, the cultural life of (and across) the CanadaUS border, to prioritise theoretical reflections on representations, identities and policies. Approaching the border as a place, a theory, a practice and a process, this collection draws attention to the ways in which aspects of the CanadaUS border itself (re)frame discussions of the borderlands as sites that continue to evoke, invoke and provoke ideas of nation and post nationalism; negotiation and imposition; resistance and refusal.

Industry Reviews

One of the first to establish an interdisciplinary, humanities-based perspective on the Canada-US border, the collection insists that this boundary needs to be taken seriously as its own object of study. In the current moment when international borders are becoming reinforced or newly established, the collection is necessary reading for those interested in border, Indigenous, settler colonial, American and Canadian studies.
