Abstract

This study considers border as a complex form of intellect, as an elimination of the meanings of disinterest, as a proposition, as the promise of radical otherness, or as an existential space for fears from straying over it. Referring to concepts which interpret modern subjects as border subjects, it also speaks of those narrative relations which set greater value upon the permanence of the feasibility of crossing the border than the crossing itself; according to this, it is important to know that the “rule of the border” is demolishable if by destroying it we are able to break down the narrative of delimitations. Texts which ironize the act of getting over the border are also included in the study. The ironic gesture of crossing the border carries subversive energies, while the fetishizing procedures strengthen the border’s power system mechanism.
