Borders, like architecture, are physical and conceptual constructs that encompass a range of political, social, cultural, religious, economic and environmental implications across time. This two-day HKU research postgraduate student symposium is organized around the oscillations between material form and immaterial abstraction that borders and architecture often comprise. Seemingly fixed and stable for certain periods, fluid and immaterial at others, borders have long shaped politics, societies, economies, religions, environments and cultures in Asia. Buildings have been active if underexamined participants in these processes.
