Abstract
Abstract This article explores the idea of the border as a connective space using the concepts of ‘border’s capture’, ‘borderizations’, and ‘border as horizon’ to highlight ‘practices of relationality’ where borders ‘run the risk of themselves being captured’. This article discusses refugee/migrant solidarity activism as citizenship politics through two examples from Germany across different snapshots in time, illustrating bordering through the camp and the dispersal of borders throughout the city. This article shows why ‘border’s capture’ is central to solidarity mobilizing as citizenship politics, exploring how borders, while integral to violent orderings, are also productive of relations across them in ways that transgress physical and ontological borders of status and belonging. This article argues for conceptualizing the border as horizon to highlight relationality and shows through the two examples why doing so matters politically in terms of how we relate to those identified as ‘outsiders’.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
