As borders bend : transnational spaces on the Pacific rim
"As Borders Bend: Transnational Spaces on the Pacific Rim" by Xiangming Chen explores how globalization reshapes state boundaries, creating new transnational spaces. The book examines seven transborder subregions along the western Pacific Rim, including the Greater Southeast China Subregion, the Bohai/Yellow Sea Subregion, and the Greater Tumen Subregion. Chen analyzes the complex processes of economic growth, social transformation, infrastructure development, and urban landscapes in these regions. He also compares these Pacific Rim cases with the U.S.-Mexico border and several European border regions, offering a comprehensive understanding of de-bordering and re-bordering dynamics
