Scholarship on borders is still largely focused on the political boundaries and borderlands between sovereign states. However, reframing the issue of French disadvantaged  banlieues  through critical border studies suggests that the borders that separate socio-economically deprived neighborhoods from other urban areas are in many regards “harder” than those between France and its European neighbors. The article explores the multiple forms of territorial ordering involved in the production and reproduction of these inner borders. It draws on spatial and postcolonial approaches towards urban geopolitics to argue that the borders that enclose the  banlieues  constitute an essential stabilizing element in contemporary representations of the Republic.
