Theeffectsoftransnationalpoliticalsituations

areradicallychangingthewaywelive.Therealities

of cross-border conicts and political disputes of

autonomy have created strife within cities leading

tocrises ofidentity, place,and hate within culture.

I contend that transnational borders are

places where conict and identity crises have

manifestedinthemostcogentandattainableform.

By investigating transnational border crises, one

can study its effects at a local and transnational

condition, enabling geophysical forces to manifest

in a productive border for the crises at hand.

Atransnationalborderconditionattheedgeof

theEuropeanUnion,intheSpanishexclaveofCeuta,is the site of the project. The exclave, which was

seizedbyPortugalin1415,andSpainin1560,became

anautonomouscityin1995,asapartofSpain.For

over600years,ithasbeenastrongholdofEuropean

presence in North Africa and the Mediterranean.

In 1985, the same year Spain joined the

EU (then the EEC), the Shenghen Agreement

was signed, creating the abolishment of internal

boundaries inside the EU, emphasizing theexternal boundary for movement within. Once

inside, a traveler has unrestricted access to all

countries under the Shenghen Agreement. In

1995, the EU funded a $320 million border fence

in Ceuta under EU’s motto, “Fortress Europe.”

Ceuta’s border has become a siphon for the

emergent Sub-Saharan migratory phenomenon.5

Ceuta is one of three Sub-Saharan migratory

destinationsinordertocrossintomainlandEurope,

the Canary Islands, Ceutaand Melilla,andMalta. As

theStraitofGibraltaristheoneoftheclosestpoints

a deathtrap for migrants, as 1,200 people die each

Additionally,theconditionthatexistspresents

ON BORDER

Geographically, we are in a space of transition:

between Africa and Europe, the Mediterranean and the

Atlantic; a space that separates and connects, and hasalways been permeable to the continuous ows of life.

Today this place fullls a strategic function by acting as

a barrier, both physical and mental, separating the legal

from illegal, like a folding line that splits our world in two.

But borders are habitable territories that can’t be

reduced to lines on a map. They are environments that

encourage interchange and hybridity, highly dynamic

territories that generate a gradation of shared spaces,

where the character of “crossing” prevails over that of

“barrier.” To cross their thresholds means to physicallymove from one place to another, but, even more, it implies

the start of a transformation, to becoming-others.

Spaces for movement and mobile spaces;

capitalist modernity accelerates this quality even as it

expands, bounding over mobile borders. Like the Far

West, destruction and colonization, but also a horizon

for creative exodus. There is a single substance,

that of capitalism and of those who escape from its

chaings to create (and create themselves as) freeterritory; even if people who want to stake it out and

privatize it follow close behind. Our modernity has its

own mobile borders, which, as always , are in search

of the other: the external other that we call nature,

and the internal other-subjectivity, ourselves, in plural.

Against sterile, immutable linear abstraction

stand ideas that spreak like contagious viruses; from

here springs Madiaq territory. Here, at the dense crux

where seas, lands and multitudes convege, over themoat they have made deadly, we are building a multiple

territory, both geographic and infographic, social and

technological, that extens innitely in four directions:

toward the South and toward the North; towards the depths

of carnal bodies and toward the immaterial noosphere

that grows in the ferile land of words without owners.

Maps report existing territories, but

they also construct them; thus territory lives

in the mind and is constructed as knowledge.7

Territory is always shifting in the

mind of the person who crosses it.

6



Thus, the project will produce an architecture that does not

attempt to solve the the conicting conditions that exist at the

Ceuta border: religious conicts, identity crises, and a high

number of migratory deaths.

Rather, the archItecture will be a vehicle to spatialize these

forces, bridging the gap between what is a jarring reality,

and an “architectural reality” that suspends judgement

in order to juxtapose and highlight conict, producing a

reconceptualization of the current EU border as a space of

productive difference.

GLOSSARY

Border: A spatial dierence between outside and inside

simultaneously creating dierence (a new outside o both

meaning and space). A flter or the gathering o dierences.

Territory: a feld or sphere o action, thought, etc.; domain orprovince o a controlling body.

Sovereignty:

Supreme and independent power or authority in government

as possessed or claimed by a state or community. 8

Transnational space:

Space that is simultaneously anchored in “nation state,” while

transcending one or more “nation state,” through the people

that inhabit it.

Exclave:

Territory legally or politically attached to another territory withwhich it is not physically contiguous. 9

Enclave:

Territory whose geographical boundaries lie entirely within the

boundaries o another territory. 10

Transit Spaces:

Space that exists at the point o tension between new

technologies, which open up access and migration control

simultaneously attempting to close it. 11

Peripherality:

Denotes margins that are not problematic to sovereignty andare subordinate to the authority and governance o the state.12

Marginality:

Denotes margins as problematic and necessary to be

eradicated by the sovereign state’s control. 13

Hybridity:

such as embassies and overseas airports. 15

S.I.V.E:

Integrated System o External Vigilance. First developed on

the northern coast o the Strait o Gibraltar in 2002. It is a

technologically advanced structure to detect and intercept

pateras and other small vessels. It measures the approximate

distance and number o people in boats, relating this inormation

to a central agency where urther deployment o helicopters or

boats can be utilized.

Clandestine Migrants:

The problem of immigration is not actually on each

state independently, but rather of the EU in general,

1985 (with the progressive dissolution of interior

or ers rom 1993) allowe or ree movement

TREATY OF ROME

The Treaty o Rome established

a coopertative trade agreement

to allow the “ree fow o goods,

services, and peoples,” within

the member state’s borders.21

The countries under this treaty

created an “economic border” that

can be read as seperate rom the

traditional notion o nation state

territorial boundaries. This border

was an economically devised

transnational border, creating

new fows through politically

connected territories. The rsttreaty within Treaty o Rome

established the EEC |European

Economic Community|, which

would later become the EU. The

border that was created connected

two continents, as Algeria was still

under France’s sovereignty in 1957.

ACT OF ACCESSION |SPAIN|

SHENGHEN AGREEMENT

Spain and Portugal joined the

EEC in 1985, and with the merger

o these countries, the EEC’s

boundary established a greater

presence in the Mediterranean

and in Arica. The Single European

Act signed in 1986, gradually

turned the EEC as a Customs

Union into a Common Market

over a seven year period with the

ormation o the EU in 1993.22 The Schenghen Agreement

created a territory where the

ree movement o persons isguaranteed. The internal border

o countries were “abolished”

in avor o on external border.

This agreement maniests

in the EU moto, “Fortress

Europe,” and simultaneously

created a strong desire or

12



“FORTRESS EUROPE”

CURRENT STATE OF EU

The EU IS now a unied bodyo 27 countries. The Shenghen

Agreement, critical or the EU to

position itsel advantageously

in the ree world market has put

tremendous strain on the ringes o

the EU as it has become a desirable

place or immigration. Immigration

has led to militarization and

increased surveillance at the

border o the EU, in an attempt

to maintain it’s internal reedom.

Thus, the moto “Fortress

Europe,” has maniested

most visibly at the border as

these spaces are otentimes

radically dierent geoeconomic

or geopolitical situations.

EXCLAVES

Territory legally or politically

attached to another territory withwhich it is not physically contiguous.

A true exclave needs to be both anenclave and an exclave, where the

territory needs to be completely

surrounded within another alienterritory. There can be many

variations on exclaves and manydo not ully match the defnition o

a true exclave such as pene, quasi,

virtual, or temporary exclaves.

Pene-exclaves are territories thatcan still be accessed to politicallyattached subordinate such as by

transportation route, or are exclaves

but one side o the territory shares aboundary with water.

Quasi exclaves hold certainexceptions such as a country that

is physically not contiguous but

may hold allegiance to anotherpolitical body simultaneously.

Virtual exclaves can be defned asembassies, or spaces that are not

quite territories.

Temporary exclaves are territories

that may have been in a territory

that has since, dissolved theirboundaries, such as West Berlin.

The frst concentration o exclaves

occurred during the Middle Ages

where a series o territories were

decentralized due to eudal rule.

These spaces were sel-sufcient

but still held allegiance to their

eudal lord. The disparate nature

o territories in the Middle Ages

created a eld o territories, that

made a patch-like environment.

The negotiation between these

dierentiated spaces was beore

the Treaty o Westphalia in 1668,

which can be considered the

modern ounding o territorial

states and boundaries. 24

STRAIT OF GIBRALTAR: FIELD OF TERRITORIES

16



1717

The Strait of Gibraltar is a unique moment in the boundary between the

Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean. Not only is it a geopolitcal

sphere of complex boundaries with 5 areas of disputed territory, but the

strait’s geographric properties form another kind of spatial boundary.

While the strait is a meeting point between the Atlantic Ocean and theMediterranean Sea, it is also a meeting point of a top layer of warm fresh

water owing eastward into the Mediterranean and a bottom layer of colder

and salty layer ow westward into the Atlantic. Through this process,

solitons are formed, which are underwater waves maintaining shape while

traveling at a constant speed. A density boundary separates the layers at

a 330 foot depth. The Camarine Sill, at the very westward end of the Strait,

is the shallowest seaoor pass between the Iberian Peninsula and Africa, at

-918 feet, causing the waters from the Atlantic to rise to the Sill, then force

its way into the Strait. The Strait’s current, depending on the winds ows

between 2 - 4 knots (2.3 - 4.6 mi/hr), making the strait dangerous to cross.25

Both Spain and Morocco claim over

sovereignty over ve territories in

the Strait of Gibraltar: Ceuta, Me-

lilla, Penon de Alhucémas, Penon

Velez de la Gomera, and the Cha-

farinas Islands in North Africa. The

most important of these is Ceuta.

Spain claims these territories based

mainly on historical terms: right ofconquest, terra nullis principles and

longevity of occupation. 26Spain also

argues that the territories are im-

portant for military security. All but

two territories, Ceuta and Melilla, are

under 1 sq miles in area and are only

military garrisons. As a composite of

Spanish hegemony near the Strait of

Gibraltar, these exclaves stretch the

boundary of Spain, creating a eld of

hegemony over the Strait of Gibral-

tar, “pulling” Moroccan land into the

Strait, and consequently into the EU.

Morocco’s argument maintains that

Spain claims the right to Gibraltar

from the UK, therefore nullifying their

own actions against the disputes

over the 5 exclaves with Morocco.

3. Travel through Saharan dessert, Morocco, and into Ceuta or Melilla.

The extreme dialectic between Christianity and Muslim territories is

physically manifested at the borders of Ceuta and Melilla, where literally the

Muslim territory of Morocco plays ‘host” to the Christian exclaves.

The distances migrants travel, as indicated by the furtherst points Kampala and

Mogadishu are nearly 2,570 km from the Strait of Gibraltar.

Michael Collyer describes the

“fragmented journey” that

migrants undergo as a result of

the “mismatch between policy

response to transit migration and

the social organization engaged in

these fragmented journeys.”28

This mismatch is a result of thespatial morphology in response toterritorially based border controlimplementation as well as thegeographic difculties of the NorthAfrican region. The paradoxicalnature of this type of bordercontrol methodology fragmentsthe journeys of migrants moreincreasingly. Surprisingly, this hasnot mitigated migration arrivals.

Thus, border control may start as faraway from the actual border itself.The border in Ceuta, for instance,has become as symbolic as it isphysical even though it still a siphonfor the emergent Sub-Saharanmigration.

There is a paradox inherent within

the pattern of spatial morphology

associated with migration in North

Africa. While greater systems of

territoriality based control have

increased due to ineffectual linear

border control measures, they

have succeeded in increasing the

travel time of migrants. Due to this,

a greater impetus to nish one’s

journey because of social and

monetary pressure is the norm. In

territorially based migration control,

the more the journey becomes

fragmented within various social

networks. Most paradoxically,

perhaps, is the fact that while more

control is established, the migrant

arrivals have are not hindered.29

constantly accepting these ows,

CEUTA PORT AND BORDER TRADE

Ceuta was a free port from 1863-

€>1863 1863-1956 >1956



Morocco does not allow legal cross-border trade.

However, Moroccan authorities allow it to happen

anyway. As documented by the Shenghen Agreement

of 14 June, 1985, Moroccans registered in the province

of Tetouan are allowed access into Ceuta without a visa

requirement for up to 24 hours. 37 This law is the loophole

to not only bring citizens in, but to smuggle goods across

the border.

The nearby city o Fnideq, 4 km south, hassurged rom this agreement with Ceuta.Ceutans ock to Fnideq to purchase lowerpriced goods and Moroccans ock to Ceutato sell goods on the street. The border allowsthis cross-border exchange.

t w p t

1986 until joined the EU. Now,

it has a low-tax system within

the European Monetary System.

Items within Ceuta sell duty-free

and therefore increases tourism.

Additionally the exclave has a 50%

VAT reduction, which has prompted

industries to station themselves

near the border, in an industrial

complex called Polygonal Tarajal. 35

But the winds o change seem to be blowing

across the border landscape. The pattern o cross-

border trade [in Ceuta] is rapidly evolving due

to a number o actors. Mainly: gradual

commercial debordering between EU and

Morocco; ree-trade agreements signed byMorocco with the US and China; substantial

investment and inrastructural transormations

taking place in the north o Morocco.” 41

There are presently approximately

27,000 Muslims living in Ceuta, which

is 40% o Ceuta’s population. 12,000

live in the slum, Principe Alonso,

which is half of the total population of

Ceuta’s Muslim population.43It is the

rst residential area one sees when

crossing from Morocco into Spain.

The marker of this holiday

signals a slow but improving

acceptance of the Muslim

citizens in Ceuta. The

signicance of this event is a

critical step in Ceuta garnering

a supportive partnership

between the two countries,

and as a rapidly developing

economic sphere, Ceuta may

be poised to allow the exchange

of culture in a denitive way.

BOUNDARY AS FIELD

“Paradoxically together with gains salience and it suggests



How can architecture utilize theemergent territorial dynamicsbetween Ceuta and Morocco asa catalyst to propose a spaceof ltering that dematerializesthe border but simultaneouslyallows for it’s presence?

Paradoxically, together with

the selective militarization of

Ceuta’s perimeter, the evolution

of territorial dynamics in the

border region suggests the

gradual socio-economic

amalgamation betweenthe two sides o the border.

...The new confguration o

power relations between Ceuta

and Morocco (understood as the

new distribution of geopolitical

and geoeconomic inuence

capacity between the two sides

of the border) might require

the reconcezptualization

o cross-border politicalinteraction in the region.

...In this mileu, dialogue and

co-operation between the two

main local political institutions

(ciudad Autonoma de Ceuta and

Municipalite de Fnideq) could

be depicted as a potentially

constructive management tool of

current border territorial dynamics.

...co-operation potentialities

cannot be detached from the

extraordinary urban development

in the border region. Urban

continuity across the border

gains salience and it suggeststhe prospective forging of across-border metropolitanamalgamation betweenCeuta and its hinterland. In

this context, the room, as well as theneed for cross-border management

initiatives is presumably growing.”4 5

Ceuta is at the crossroads of not

only Third world and First, but

exists as a place of limbo for the

temporary inhabitants of the

city. The surrounding territory

is poised to have a larger say in

international economics, as the

Tanger-Med Port will become amajor international player in port

handling. This catalyst , along with

the gradual acceptance of Muslim

tradition in Ceuta makes the border

reconceptualization critical in the

our current transnational world.
