Re-thinking frontiers in Southeast Asia.(Editorial)
The frontier has a long tradition in geographical study. Exploration, conquest and the colonial project were all about pushing back the frontier of civilisation, and seeking riches at and beyond the resource frontier. Turner's thesis put frontiers as geographical peripheries at the heart of what defines the national character (Turner 1920). In another sense, frontiers define the national 'geobody' (Winichakul 1994), so that cores are delimited and partly characterised by perimeters and peripheries. The frontier is thus in part a metaphor for national development in its material and ideological senses, as well as in terms of spatial expansion and delimitation.
