Languages of publication

EN
Referring to D. Robert DeChaine’s argument in Border Rhetorics: Citizenship and Identity on the US-Mexico Border in which the author puts forward the need to analyze rhetorical functions of the border, the article examines the examples of challenging of the border doxa. Thereby the article discusses selected examples of border artivism taking place at the U.S.-Mexico border and the Mediterranean since the 2000s. The rhetorical meaning of the border related to values, beliefs and attitudes is understood as a border doxa that influences the social perception of borders and migrants. The works of the artists discussed in the article challenge border related narratives and question the legitimacy of borders, due to the detrimental effects they have, creating divisions between people, communities and the environment.

Odwołując się do tezy D. Roberta DeChaine’a zawartej w „Border Rhetorics: Citizenship and Identity on the US-Mexico Border”, w której autor postuluje zwrócenie uwagi na retoryczne funkcje granic artykuł analizuje polemikę z doksą granicy. W artykule omówione są wybrane przykłady artystycznego aktywizmu (artivism) z pogranicza meksykańsko-amerykańskiego oraz w obrębie Morza Śródziemnego od 2000 roku. Retoryczne znaczenie granicy, związane z wartościami, przekonaniami i postawami rozumiane jest jako doksa pogranicza, wpływająca na społeczne postrzeganie granic i migrantów. Omawiane w artykule prace artystów kwestionują związane z granicami narracje i podważają zasadność granic ze względu na ich szkodliwe skutki: tworzenie podziałów między ludźmi, społecznościami i środowiskiem naturalnym.
