Remaking Borders

Venue: Monastero dei Benedettini, Catania (Italy)
Period: Jan. 20-22, 2011

The scholarship in this conference is collectively working towards understanding the shifting, multiple and ongoing processes by which borders are made, relocated, and remade, as well as focusing on all of the social, political and economic implications of that. Each panel represents a theme that has been focused upon in interrelated workshops held in a range of cities across Europe over the last two years. There are eight of them: the ones marked WG1 to WG4 focus on different aspects of border; the ones marked WS1 to WS4 focus on themes that, while not exclusively about borders in themselves, often involve borders or bordering techniques.
