The construction of borders are often forged by trading networks, the development of ports of commerce, and as a direct result of cultural exchange. These are a few of the many dynamics that can experienced through a walk by Shuwaikh’s coastal line. Stepping outside the old city walls was a political act of Modernity and power. Moving away from the city center, was an economic and social gesture of independence from the previous dominant governance of the sea. In this tour Madeenah will be exploring the different definitions and forms of borders and how together, they draw an outline of a city’s future.
