Borders and Mobility Injustice in the Context of the Covid-19 Pandemic

Journal of Borderlands Studies, 2021, vol. 36, issue 4, 695-703

Abstract: The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has been an occasion to reflect on the uneven geographies of threats and disasters in relation to diverse population groups, rising fundamental concerns on issues of spatial and social injustice. In different areas of the world, the most affected by the virus are categories of people who already present some kind of vulnerability and experience inequalities. Borders and bordering processes have had a major role in the shaping of asymmetries, and this commentary intends to focus explicitly on them and on their renewed importance as technologies for the production and reproduction of inequalities.
