Identities on the Portuguese-Spanish border: permanence and transformation after Schengen
2011
Overview
ABSTRACT IN SPANISH: Para intentar comprender el impacto del tratado de Schengen en la construcción y recreación de las identidades de las gentes que viven en un sector de la frontera luso-española, específicamente en la parte de la frontera donde se encuentran las regiones de Trás-os-Montes del norte de Portugal y la comunidad autónoma española de Galicia, es necesario examinar, e intentar interconectar, tres elementos: a) las teorias manejadas por los cientificos sociales sobre los conceptos de \"identidad\" y de \"fronteras\"; b) las ideas (y estereotipos) del \"Otro\" por parte de los portugueses y de los españoles a través de la historia, desde la fundación de Portugal en el siglo XII, y c) la etnografia, en sus dos sentidos, como producto y como proceso, realizada en las poblaciones (tanto en las aldeas como en las ciudades) de la frontera luso-española antes y después de la implementación del tratado de Schengen. // ABSTRACT IN ENGLISH: In order to understand the construction and re-creation of identities of those who live on a section of the Portuguese-Spanish border, specifically that part of the frontier where the northern Portuguese region of Trás-os-Montes meets the Spanish region of Galicia, this essay examines and attempts to interconnect three elements: the theories used by social scientists concerning the concepts of 'identity' and of 'borders'; the ideas (and stereotypes) of the 'Other' held by the Portuguese and the Spaniards throughout their history since the founding of Portugal in the twelfth century; and the ethnography, in both senses of product and of process, carried out by the author over the past two decades in villages and towns on the Luso-Spanish frontier, both before and after the Schengen Agreement.
