The disputed area claimed by #Venezuela, known as the #Essequibo or #GuayanaEsequiba, makes up 3/4 of #Guyana's total area (based on current control), but less than 1/3 of its population. The seas off its coast contain major oil resources.

This week the International Court of Justice (#ICJ) rejected #Venezuela's 2nd try at getting #territorialdispute case with #Guyana thrown out, meaning it will go forward with ruling (eventually) on whether huge part of what's now governed as Guyana land is actually Venezuela's.

#Britain & #EuropeanUnion reach preliminary deal to soften post-#Brexit customs border between #NorthernIreland and rest of #UK.
Northern Ireland so far has been treated more or less like it's still part of #EU to avoid threatening open border with #Ireland, crucial to peace deal that ended 20th Century insurgency.

The third South Asian Border Studies Conference will be in April. Will soon share the details.
Starting the year as I hope to continue: dragging the family along on improbable border rambles, chasing and experiencing imaginary lines of history & geography. Today, we ambled along the 🇨🇭🇫🇷 border demarcated in 1869, giving the Vallée des Dappes back to France in exchange of other territories further east.
We normally come here to ski in winter, but today was 12C in crazy sunshine, with fresh grass growing. ❄️🔥

🇨🇭🇫🇷 Border stones 11, 12, 13, 14. Some have been restored and cleaned. So someone has decided to apply Swiss standards of cleanliness to these old ladies. Adieu romantic decay.

🇨🇭🇫🇷 Border stones 8, 9, 10. On we go, in the light drizzly rain. Is anyone still following along? It is starting to feel like a rather laborious Advent calendar, a few weeks late…
Moss and ivy are slowly taking over some of the stones. Should we clean them? Let them be? I am torn between feeling that they should be cleaned & preserved and a fondness for the the romantic aesthetic of them merging and dissolving into the landscape.

#Introduction part 2! I am a #PhD candidate in Global Studies at the #UBC - Okanagan Campus. My main research interests are in #memorystudies, #oralhistory, #borderstudies, #digitalhistory and the modern #UpperAdriatic. In my PhD research, I plan to explore how the profound political, economic, and demographic changes in the post–World War II era affected the Italian-speaking community in Rijeka/Fiume. Also, I am a #FLOSS enthusiast, and I would love to connect with other #histodons here!
