Description
Summary:The national frontiers are a simultaneous and cumulative overlapping of times and spaces and configure itself as one of the major symptoms of society’s needs to create differentiation models. Based on these arguments, we defend that it is a mistake to reference frontiers as natural or casual and to extract them from their temporal and spatial structures, treating them as homogeneous and non-dialectics. For this, based on the proposition of Milton Santos that knowledge implies analysis, which then implies division, we opted for the separation of these two components, with the ultimate goal to highlight some evidences of the temporal and spatial formation of frontiers. We also intend with this division to show how artificial and didactic this separation is, since the categories of time and space, recognize and confuse themselves continuously throughout our argument.
