Transnational Frontiers of Asia and Latin America since 1800: Border Regions Series
Editat de Jaime Moreno Tejada, Bradley Tataren Limba Engleză Paperback – 2 mai 2018
This book provides 16 different case studies of frontiers in Asia and Latin America by interdisciplinary scholars, charting the first steps toward a transnational and transcontinental history of social development in the borderlands of two continents. Transnationalism provides a shared focus for the contributions, drawing upon diverse theoretical perspectives to examine the place-making projects of nation states. Through the lenses of different scales and time frames, the contributors examine the social processes of frontier life, and how the frontiers have been created through the exertions of nation-states to control marginal or borderland peoples. The most significant cases of industrialization, resource extraction and colonization projects in Asia and Latin America are examined in this book reveal the incompleteness of frontiers as modernist spatial projects, but also their creativity - as sources of new social patterns, new human adaptations, and new cultural outlooks and ways of confronting power and privilege. The incompleteness of frontiers does not detract from their power to move ideas, peoples and practices across borders both territorial and conceptual.
In bringing together Asian and Latin American cases of frontier-making, this book points toward a comparativist and cosmopolitan approach in the study of statecraft and modernity. For scholars of Latin America and/or Asia, it brings together historical themes and geographic foci, providing studies accessible to researchers in anthropology, geography, history, politics, cultural studies and other fields of the human sciences.

Descriere
Frontier history remains staunchly traditional, still sheltered under the powerful wings of 19th century historian and founder of the discipline, Frederick Jackson Turner. But things are changing, partly thanks to the rise of transnational history and interdisciplinary research. This book shows the emergence of pathways for investigation in various academic fields which are both innovative and faithful to the well-established framework of frontier studies. There is a long tradition of borderlands research in both Asia and Latin America, but thus far there has been very little contact between these two strains of scholarly literature. The volume builds a bridge between Asia and Latin America, and opens up the field for conversation and collaboration.
