El presente artículo reflexiona sobre fronteras europeas y sus dinámicas cotidianas desde una óptica transfronteriza. Se parte de algunos hechos recientes que cuestionan la actual política de fronteras de la Unión Europea para hacer a continuación un repaso de la literatura sobre fronteras y territorios fronterizos. Posteriormente, se discuten los aspectos cotidianos que las prácticas transfronterizas tienen para los habitantes de los espacios fronterizos. En algunas ocasiones, y para completar el cuadro, se hace referencia a fronteras americanas. Si bien el tema de la seguridad es relevante, nos enfocamos en las dimensiones económicas y sociales de la cooperación. Tres aspectos devienen esenciales para los habitantes de frontera, que pretenden usar las ventajas del territorio en su globalidad: trabajo, residencia y compras. Como conclusión, se puede afirmar que ha habido una tendencia hacia un suavizamiento de las fronteras y una mayor integración de las zonas fronterizas de la Unión Europea.  Universidad Autónoma de Baja California 2017-01-17 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion application/pdf application/pdf text/html text/html application/epub+zip application/epub+zip application/xml application/xml image/jpeg image/jpeg image/png image/jpeg image/jpeg https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/576 10.21670/ref.2017.35.a7 Estudios Fronterizos Revista; Vol. 18 No. 35 (2017); 131-149 Estudios Fronterizos; Vol. 18 Núm. 35 (2017); 131-149 2395-9134 0187-6961 spa eng https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/576/1076 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/576/1075 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/576/1090 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/576/1091 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/576/1104 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/576/1105 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/576/1117 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/576/1128 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/576/1327 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/576/1328 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/576/1329 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/576/1330 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/576/1331 cobertura Derechos de autor 2017 Estudios Fronterizos
