‘A Research Agenda for Border Studies, edited by James W. Scott, is a timely and concise sweep of border theory as it has developed over the past two decades. Drawing upon a number of theoretical perspectives and case studies, this engaging book provides a clear understanding of the state of borders in global perspective. Chapters are written by both established and emerging border scholars, and each provides a careful examination of border theory and analysis at different scales and in different locations. The result is a study of borders from multiple perspectives and through very different lenses. A must read if you want to know why borders matter more and more in a contemporary world and networked world.'
