This book examines the ways in which Nigeria’s borders are used as instruments of soft and hard power in the country’s relations with other African states.Across land, air, sea, cyberspace, and even outer space, Nigeria uses its borders to insert the country into the heart of African geopolitics. Drawing on the African realist conception of African internationalism, this book analyses how the country exerts the geographic advantage of its territoriality as a diplomatic instrument to assert its regional aspirations. The authors also examine how Nigeria positions itself amongst its direct West African neighbours and within the ECOWAS ‘borderless Protocols’ and the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA), the book goes further to consider how Nigeria uses non-physical borders, deploying space exploration and cyber security initiatives to further its hegemonic influence in Africa.This book will be of interest to researchers across the fields of Political Science, International Relations, Border Studies and African Studies.

This book offers a theoretical and empirical explanation of the intersection of border, diplomacy, and security, with particular emphasis on the border policies and practices of Nigeria and South Africa in the context of border enforcement, cross-border concessions and agreements, visa regimes, migration control, and refugee policies. Primarily focusing on physical frontiers, particularly borderlands, the author draws on the African realist assumption of African international relations and the lived experience of state and non-state actors to explain the divergence and convergence in the border and security practices of the two states, emphasising African agency and experiential realities in the understanding and framing of the continent’s experience. The book also examines the limitations to the effectiveness of the two states’ border practices and how such factors impact not only their security landscapes but also the regional ‘borderless Africa’ agenda in the context of the AfCFTA and the continental-wide Free Movement Protocol.
