This implies first and foremost a change in the social function of borders. Borders may be defined as that part of national territory “where there is some critical reduction of the frequency of a certain type of transaction” (Deutsch 1969, 99). In this respect, borders function as bottlenecks; they constitute barriers (Nijkamp 1994). This function may be regarded as an unintended consequence of “thin” infrastructures in areas that are remote from the economic and political centers. More often than not, however, it is the result of conscious efforts, for economic, political, or social reasons, to keep border transactions under control.
The bulk of the argument deals, however, with the emerging contradiction between narrow state-centric moralities and the rise of liberal individualism. ” Didier Bigo also situates himself at the identities/borders (IB) nexus to address the remarkable merging of internal and external security functions. Traditionally, the functions and modes of operation of rethinking the “international” · 27 security-providing institutions (such as the police and the army) were clearly differentiated along the Westphalian, inside/outside, divide.
First, there is the redefinition of state activities from a demand- to a supply-side-oriented policy. This creates, what keeps westphalia together? · 47 as mentioned above, incentives for substate entities to develop stronger transnational links, a process that may be accompanied by a new emphasis on subsidiarity. At the same time, national equity schemes are being threatened. While the state stresses national competitiveness, intercommunal solidarity is being weakened as the central state tries to get rid of some of the externalities of its policies by dumping them on the lower level.
