The space-time conditions of state boundaries

Abstract

The article analyzes the state boundaries from different spatial and temporal conditions. From this analysis, four typologies were constructed, called space-time boundary conditions. In the approach of the article, a more focused analysis about the situation of the Brazilian border has been made, as a strategy of communication to the reader. It is emphasized, through this text, that the categories proposed are not presented as necessary stages of an irremediable evolutionary process. Moreover, the existence of categories does not imply the belief that a frontier frame in its terms, opening the possibility for the existence of characteristics of different typologies in the same space analyzed
