Popis: | The frontier spaces of Central Africa have forthe last fifteen years been experiencing bubbling cornmercial activity, within a general context of an economic and political blind alley. These ernerging transborder zones are crisscrossed on a lasser or grealer scale by other boundaries (monetary, cultura1, political) that are superimposed with the national perimeters. For this reason, these spaces are very complex in the way they function. They are structured with regard to markets and the avenues of cornmunication that put them in contact with cities in the interior, comsumers and providers of merchandise. Problems of security, of police control, of uneven maintenance of roadways explain the constant movement of real restate investments on the borders. The transborder spaces are, when all is said and done, fleeting structures but closely connected with the interior urban centers, consolidating framework of the national territories. |
