In this second track of research, I move from city to borderlands to explore what ruins, mobility, and ecology through the Syrian Badia and the Jordan Valley can tell us about colonial partitions, the seemingly concluded pasts of anti-colonial struggle, deep histories of the environment, and everyday life. What can counter-images of smuggling routes, caravans, basalt stone, vanished landscapes, and ruins of buildings from the depths and landscapes of the Arab Levant tell us about borders and the world today?
