Abstract
Boundaries in Eastern Africa reflect intricate compromises by colonial and post-colonial authorities to stabilize human habitation within territorial spaces. Although creatures of human contrivances, these boundaries have evolved into natural formations that delimit the external reach of power and delineate citizenships. Over the years, the instability occasioned elsewhere in Africa by border conflicts has dissipated in Eastern Africa, lending some semblance of permanence to existing boundaries. By the same token, however, boundaries are always permeable and flexible, responsive to emerging needs and priorities.
