Download or read book British Columbia s Borders in Globalization written by Nicole Bates-Eamer and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-11-24 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a case-study collection examining the influences and functions of British Columbia’s (BC) borders in the 21st century. British Columbia’s Borders in Globalization examines bordering processes and the causes and effects of borders in the Cascadian region, from the perspective of BC. The chapters cover diverse topics including historical border disputes and cannabis culture and identity; the governance of transboundary water flows, migration, and preclearance policies for goods and people; and the emerging issue of online communities. The case studies provide examples that highlight the simultaneous but contradictory trends regarding borders in BC: while boundaries and bordering processes at the external borders shift away from the territorial boundary lines, self-determination, local politics, and cultural identities re-inscribe internal boundaries and borders that are both virtual and real. Moreover, economic protectionism, racial discourses, and xenophobic narratives, driven by advances in technology, reinforce the territorial dimensions of borders. These case studies contribute to the literature challenging the notion that territorial borders are sufficient for understanding how borders function in BC; and in a few instances they illustrate the nuanced ways in which borders (or bordering processes) are becoming detached from territory. The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of the Journal of Borderlands Studies.

Download or read book American Boundaries written by Bill Hubbard and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2008-11-15 with total page 469 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For anyone who has looked at a map of the United States and wondered how Texas and Oklahoma got their Panhandles, or flown over the American heartland and marveled at the vast grid spreading out in all directions below, American Boundaries will yield a welcome treasure trove of insight. The first book to chart the country’s growth using the boundary as a political and cultural focus, Bill Hubbard’s masterly narrative begins by explaining how the original thirteen colonies organized their borders and decided that unsettled lands should be held in trust for the common benefit of the people. Hubbard goes on to show—with the help of photographs, diagrams, and hundreds of maps—how the notion evolved that unsettled land should be divided into rectangles and sold to individual farmers, and how this rectangular survey spread outward from its origins in Ohio, with surveyors drawing straight lines across the face of the continent. Mapping how each state came to have its current shape, and how the nation itself formed within its present borders, American Boundaries will provide historians, geographers, and general readers alike with the fascinating story behind those fifty distinctive jigsaw-puzzle pieces that together form the United States.

This book was released on 2018-02-13 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Statement of Facts Regarding the Alaska Boundary Question: Compiled for the Government of British Columbia The greatest care and candour shall be exercised on my part in dealing with this inter national question, the magnitude and the importance of which are not easily realised. In by-b one days, when the Treaty referred to was framed and passed, that portion of the American Continent, being little known, was not deemed of much value, except for fur hunting purposes. Lapse of time, Chowever, has produced many changes, which require to be dealt with on their merits. Statements which may be brought forward in connection with this question, or which may have been adduced previously, to be of value, should be susceptible of proof, and be founded, not on assumption, but on tangible, solid foundation. The aim Of this report is to present the Boundary Question as free from doubt and ambiguity as possible, referring to both sides without bias or prejudice, keeping the Treaty continually in View as a guide. The whole matter naturally resolves itself into two heads, which require to be fully investigated and examined and decided upon, namely the contention of British Columbia, or Canada, or Great Britain, under the Treaty, on the one side, and the claims of the United States, with their purchase of the rights of Russia to Alaska in 1867, on the other.

Download or read book Converging Empires written by Andrea Geiger and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2022-03-15 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Making a vital contribution to our understanding of North American borderlands history through its examination of the northernmost stretches of the U.S.-Canada border, Andrea Geiger highlights the role that the North Pacific borderlands played in the construction of race and citizenship on both sides of the international border from 1867, when the United States acquired Russia's interests in Alaska, through the end of World War II. Imperial, national, provincial, territorial, reserve, and municipal borders worked together to create a dynamic legal landscape that both Indigenous and non-Indigenous people negotiated in myriad ways as they traversed these borderlands. Adventurers, prospectors, laborers, and settlers from Europe, Canada, the United States, Latin America, and Asia made and remade themselves as they crossed from one jurisdiction to another. Within this broader framework, Geiger pays particular attention to the ways in which Japanese migrants and the Indigenous people who had made this borderlands region their home for millennia—Tlingit, Haida, and Tsimshian among others—negotiated the web of intersecting boundaries that emerged over time, charting the ways in which they infused these reconfigured national, provincial, and territorial spaces with new meanings.
