Borders are imaginary lines which separate the jurisdiction of nation states. In most parts of the world, crossing these lines requires a wodge of establishment paperwork, such as passports and visas.

Borders exist between countries and regions.

Official narrative

Clear definition of which parts of the globe belong to which nation state are important, as is controlling movement of people across these borders. The system of passports and visas is an important policy to promote global stability.

Open borders is good for capitalism.

Opposition

Many groups, such as the UK-based No Border network, campaign against borders, arguing that people should not be discriminated against because of their country of origin.[1]
