Dualism of Border and Security Qualitative study of the role of border markets in the sense of socioeconomic security of border villagers

In this research, the role of border markets on the sense of security of border villagers in Baneh city has been investigated. The method used in this study was qualitative using a typical case study and focus groups. Findings show that cross-border exchanges and cross-border trade have played an important role in improving the living conditions of border residents and and helped the residents to improve their lives both economically and socially.With the creation of bazaars, according to the people and the officials, the number of smugglers who endanger the security of the people has been reduced to some extent. In terms of investment and inclination to economic and commercial activities with people across the border, we have seen an increasing trend, but productive investment has not been made in the region, which is one of the weaknesses of creating those markets. The feeling of financial security compared to the period before the establishment of the bazaar has been increasing and has also had a positive impact on reducing unrest in the region and reducing crime within villages and border areas. But the sense of security in border and Culbary traffic has diminished, and law enforcement policies need to be revised to some extent in favor of Culbarha and small businesses. In the initial goals of the formation of cross-border exchanges, economic development and healthy employment, these decisions have been prominent, but the effectiveness of markets in other areas, including urban areas, has been greater than rural border areas.
