¿Cómo trazan ‘la frontera’ como parte de sus rutas cotidianas las personas que viven dentro de y/o entre las regiones Tijuana-San Diego? ¿Qué imágenes y asociaciones dan ellos a la frontera respecto a sus prácticas cotidianas y experiencias en y/o a través de estas regiones urbanas? ¿Cómo esas imágenes y asociaciones podrían relacionarse (o no) a los aspectos de clase socio-económica, localización de su vivienda, identidad legal, tiempo de estancia en estas regiones, las percepciones de seguridad, propósito de (in)movilidad, presencia de redes de trabajo, familia, amigos dentro de y/o entre estas regiones?
Usando el concepto de mapas mentales introducido por Kevin Lynch, y basado en 21 entrevistas durante el trabajo de campo aquí en Tijuana, Kolar Aparna, investigadora de la Universidad de Radbound, discutirá estas preguntas en su presentación.

Everyday Urban-Border mappings at Tijuana San Diego regions
By Kolar Aparna
Radboud University, The Netherlands
How do people living within and/or across the Tijuana-San Diego regions map ‘the border’ as part of their everyday routes? What images and associations do they give to the border in relation to their everyday practices and experiences in and/or across these urban regions? How might these be related (or not) to aspects of socio-economic class, location of home, legal identity, duration of stay in these regions, perceptions of safety, purpose of (im)mobilities, presence of networks of work, family, friends within and/or across these regions?
Using the concept of mental maps introduced by Kevin Lynch and based on material from 21 interviews during the fieldwork here in Tijuana the presenter try to grapple with these questions during the presentation.By Kolar Aparna
