Con l’implementazione spaziale delle frontiere, gli stati-nazione, come pure le differenze sociali e politiche a essi collegate, divengono evidenti. L’articolo discute le varie possibili concettualizzazioni del confine nel discorso architettonico, elaborando le caratteristiche spaziali delle frontiere (ad esempio, le forme contemporanee del pensiero di confine) e analizzando una gamma di condizioni e pratiche di frontiera contemporanee. Le concettualizzazioni qui proposte sono: la frontiera come limite, come spazio territoriale, come luogo politico, come luogo di ritrovo e spazio dell’incontro. Nonostante la ricca e rapida espansione della letteratura accademica relativa ai border studies, la loro complessità spaziale rimane tuttora poco studiata. Il contributo propone una comprensione sintetica della frontiera come spazio di simultaneità
