Abstract

The chapter stages an encounter between border studies and postcolonial criticism against the background of the lively debates surrounding the topic of political subjectivity and justice. Starting from a discussion of the postcolonial condition, particularly in the light of the development of the "subaltern studies" project in India, the author proposes to take the border as a privileged research onject and at the same time as an epistemic angle on the political tensions and conflicts crisscrossing globalization.
