"For residents living at national borders, the divisions between countries are rarely
black and white, and often everyday interactions contribute to the creation of a cross-border
region. This book examines this phenomenon in Cascadia, which runs along the Canada/US
border in the Pacific Northwest. Placing people at the heart of the analysis, the
book considers the everyday interactions and links which bind residents together and
help to define Cascadia as a cross-border region. The book also assesses the impact
that increased border security in the wake of 9/11 has had on border residents. Following
a bottom-up approach rather than a top-down approach, the book examines how border
security impacts the residents' mobility, their representations of the border and,
potentially the existence of a cross-border identity. Drawing on extensive original
qualitative and quantitative data, this book will be of interest to researchers across
border studies, geography, geopolitics, and cultural studies, as well as to policy
makers and other stakeholders with an interest in cross-border cooperation"
