They are enough borders that we don’t keep in mind. Normally when we speak about the boundaries we imagine a big wall or simply a dividing line. No buts there are a lot of different unconsidered borders. Let’s go in depth with these facets, seeing an example.

Reflection about borders

In Spain we don’t have administrative boundaries, if you are civic, you don’t have the necessity of carrying your papers we just don’t have to cross them. Nevertheless, we have many borders such as linguistics, economic, cultural or social boundaries. Those are as a crystal wall, they hinder or make impossible the free people's move.


 

Reflect about the idea of boundary such a separation between human groups, we should use it as to build a new Europe keeping in mind a common coexistence space. These reflection have to serve as for leading this distinction, improving the life quality of the individual member of the previous group separated for the “invisible” boundary. The advance of the free movements, leading the administrative borders has supposed a bigger traffic trade between the ancient statues. These could have supposed an increasing of wealth too, but not the enough if we understand that the omission of all those borders will built a new physical space called Europe.


 

It could help to make understand at what type of border is the ones that we are alluding to. Linguistic boundaries make that a Barcelona citizen consider greatly different travelling 400 kilometres to north or to the south of Spain.

 


 

Economic boundaries cause of the states of Central European to develop the financial politics, development of the Euro. Culture boundaries make others feel conscience, although they are in the same administrative space or also the building of different external boundaries. Europe needs to propel a unique model of external borders in which the impermeability with the surrounding countries are thoroughly agree with.  

 

To eliminate each one of these borders, we will have to continue propelling projects into a European level, thus the total integration on a politician and communal system on which the state member will have to give up with the sovereignty.

 

 

This study doesn’t expect to include all these facets of the border idea, although we couldn’t let to mention about them.
