Las fronteras no son solo lineas fisicas en un mapa, sino procesos sociales y simbolicos que se configuran continuamente a traves del lenguaje y la interaccion cotidiana. Este volumen bilinguee (espanol-ingles) desafia las nociones estaticas y binarias de las fronteras, mostrando como se construyen, se mantienen, pero tambien se resisten y se reinventan mediante practicas comunicativas concretas.?

Desde diversas perspectivas teoricas y metodologicas, los y las autoras analizan fronteras nacionales, transnacionales, simbolicas y de genero en distintos espacios (Europa, Africa y America), abordando cuestiones sociales y politicas de gran actualidad como la migracion, la identidad, el racismo, la discriminacion de genero y otras formas de exclusion mediadas por el lenguaje.?Este volumen, ademas de promover?un dialogo cientifico mas equitativo entre el espanol y el ingles, ofrece claves criticas para comprender como el lenguaje moldea las fronteras de nuestro mundo contemporaneo. Una contribucion que invita a reflexionar sobre las formas sutiles y manifiestas en que el lenguaje participa en la construccion-y deconstruccion-de las divisiones sociales.?

Borders are not just physical lines on a map-they are social and symbolic processes constantly shaped through language and everyday interaction. This bilingual volume (Spanish-English) challenges static, binary notions of borders, revealing how they are constructed, maintained, but also resisted and reimagined through specific communicative practices.?

Bringing together diverse theoretical and methodological perspectives, the contributors examine national, transnational, symbolic, and gendered borders in different spaces (Europe, Africa and the Americas), engaging with urgent social and political issues such as migration, identity, racism, gender discrimination, and other forms of exclusion mediated by language. By fostering a more equitable scientific dialogue between Spanish and English, this book offers critical insights into how language shapes the borders of our contemporary world. A thought-provoking contribution that invites readers to critically engage with the subtle and overt ways language participates in the making-and unmaking-of social divides.?
