From the Back Cover
Border Politics The Limits of Sovereign Power Nick Vaughan-Williams 'Offers a significant contribution to debates about borders that deserves wide-spread attention.' John Williams, University of Durham 'An urgently needed book.' Yosef Lapid, New Mexico State University This book presents a distinctive theoretical approach to the problem of borders in the study of global politics. It turns from current debates about the presence or absence of borders between states to consider the possibility that the concept of the border of the state is being reconfigured in contemporary political life. The author uses critical resources found in poststructuralist thought to think in new ways about the relationship between borders, security and sovereign power, drawing on a range of thinkers including Agamben, Derrida and Foucault. He highlights the necessity of a more pluralized and radicalised view of what borders are and where they might be found and uses the problem of borders to critically explore the innovations and limits of poststructuralist scholarship. Nick Vaughan-Williams is a Lecturer in International Relations at the University of Exeter, UK, and Co-Convenor of the British International Studies Association Poststructuralist Politics Working Group. He is co-editor (with Jenny Edkins) of Critical Theorists and International Relations (2009) and (with Angharad Closs Stephens) of Terrorism and the Politics of Response: London in a Time of Terror (2008).
