To understand the historical complexity of the PakistanAfghanistan borderland, this book brings together some of the foremost thinkers of this borderland and seeks to approach its various problematic dimensions.
This book presents an overview of the geopolitics of the PakistanAfghanistan borderland and approaches the topic from different methods and perspectives. It focuses on some of the least debated dimensions of this borderland, for instance, the status of women in the tribal-border culture, the legal status of aliens in the making of the border, material and immaterial manifestations of the border, political aesthetics of the border, and the identity crisis on the border. Given the fact that its authors come from diverse backgrounds, academic and geographic, they make an enriching contribution. Employing their expertise in different theories and methods, they focus on local memories, literature, and wisdom to understand the border.
