Borders can capture the popular imagination and inspire creative works. We welcome scholarly submissions from all disciplines and backgrounds.īIG_Review also promotes artistic submissions pertaining to borders (borders understood broadly: political, social, cultural, metaphoric, personal).
Research questions might include: What challenges are posed by subnational and transnational groups? What challenges do borders pose to communities and migrants? How are cultures shaped by borders, and vice-versa? How are technologies shaping borders? We encourage innovative theoretical work and explorations of borders widely construed, as well as empirical and quantitative research. We are equally interested in the potential of Indigenous knowledges to transform border studies, along with questions of colonialism, climate change, and sustainability.
We are interested in studies that go beyond the ‘land image’ by exploring borders as non-contiguous, functional, aterritorial, mobile, electronic, biometric, etc. Scholarly submissions should engage with the research literature on borders, including, for example, borderlands, borderscapes, and bordering processes. BIG_Review publishes scholarship (academic articles, review essays, research notes, book reviews, and film reviews), policy work (briefs and reports), and artwork (photography, painting, poetry, short stories, and more).
