摘　　要：纵观世界历史,边界的作用和功能过去曾经并且现在依然是划定和分隔一国主权与他国主权的界线。然而,“9·11”事件使我们认识到边界不仅仅是线,也是一种流——在全球范围内的合法或非法的人流和物流。我们的边界起点不是在我们的口岸,而应该在乘客登上飞往这些口岸的飞机和货物被装上驶往这些口岸的船舶始发港。为了做出切实可行的安排来保证旅行和贸易的安全,应当把人流、物流看作是陆地、海上或空中的无数条线,并且从这个角度来观察和管理边界。The purpose and function of borders in world history has been and remains to delineate and demarcate—that is,to differentiate—one sovereignty from another.However,since 9/11 borders are not only perceived as lines,but also as movements—flows of people and goods on a global scale both legally and illegally.We began to understand that our borders begin not where our ports of entry are located,but rather,where passengers board air carriers and freight is loaded on maritime vessels bound for those ports of entry.In order to forge practical arrangements to take both travel and trade security into account,borders needed to be viewed and managed as flows of people and goods as much as lines in the sand,on the water or through the air.
