Abstract
|
|
|
|
| Everyday life at the Finnish-Russian border has undergone significant changes in recent years. The development of neighbourly relations and the growth of cross-border traffic and interaction, which began after the collapse of the Soviet Union, have been disrupted by border crossing restrictions and closures, a consequence of COVID-19 pandemic and Russia's attack into Ukraine. This visual essay provides an account of everyday life on the border over the past 15 years through my personal experiences and observations as a border scholar. The selected visual images illustrate how the material and social landscape, as well as people's experiences and agency (including my own), transform at the Finnish-Russian border in response to the shifting political climate and changing border policies. |
