Abstract: Abstract Frontiers do not lose their meaning in this network society characterized by openness, dynamism, and constant interaction between individuals, but their construction is being modified. Because there is no strict separation between the digital and the real spaces, frontiers migrate to the digital world, contributing to the development of the current network society. However, given the assumption that the electronic space has no limitation, is dynamic and open, what is the relevance of frontiers in the digital world? Their relevance can be taken from the current real society, especially the European one, where frontiers have become spaces for expansion, processes, and institutions.
