This book examines this phenomenon in Cascadia, which runs along the Canada\/US border in the Pacific Northwest.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlacing people at the heart of the analysis, the book considers the everyday interactions and links which bind residents together and help to define Cascadia as a cross-border region. The book also assesses the impact that increased border security in the wake of 9\/11 has had on border residents. Following a bottom-up approach rather than a top-down approach, the book examines how border security impacts the residents' mobility, their representations of the border and, potentially the existence of a cross-border identity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDrawing on extensive original qualitative and quantitative data, this book will be of interest to researchers across border studies, geography, geopolitics, and cultural studies, as well as to policy-makers and other stakeholders with an interest in cross-border cooperation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePierre-Alexandre Beylier \u003c\/strong\u003eis Associate Professor in North American Studies at Universit?
