New Study Explores Materialistic Approach to Border Transgression
Recent publication in the Soft Power Journal, titled “Unsettling Solidarity: Towards a Materialistic Approach to Border Transgression,” delves into the complexities of border politics through a materialistic lens.
Authored by Ivan Bonnin, Camille Cassarini, Paolo Cuttitta, Georges Kouagang, Ismail Oubad, Luca Queirolo Palmas, and Federico Rahola, the study examines how material conditions and resources influence border dynamics and transgressions.
The authors argue that traditional approaches to border studies often overlook the material aspects that drive migration and border conflicts. By focusing on the tangible elements such as economic resources, infrastructure, and environmental factors, the study aims to provide a more comprehensive understanding of border issues.
This innovative perspective challenges existing paradigms and calls for a reevaluation of policies and practices related to border management. The study is part of the journal’s latest issue, which explores various aspects of authoritarian liberalisms and their impact on global politics.
