Other duties may include: teaching online courses and organizing conferences, workshops, seminars, and summer schools. These logics connect non-contiguous states and regions of the world through mobility and flow corridors linking airports and seaports, requiring global border infrastructures to be located away from territorial boundaries. Our research program assesses the visibility and invisibility of borders as well as their territoriality, and their spatial natures beyond their territoriality.
