This article analyzes the urbanization of the border city of Chiang Rai as facilitated by development aid from transnational institutions, the ASEAN Economic Community, and investment from foreign countries. This analysis of the urbanization of Chiang Rai is one of a number of studies describing the relationships between places and the interactions of people, technology, and policies constructing a certain type of city. The border city is a space where urbanization is spurred by these networks of interaction, the border being both a medium and a product of these connections. Because the border city is a relational urban space, it is necessary to clarify what connections and relationships bring about border city development and what characteristics of urbanization appear as a result. This study focuses on how mobility and daily practice define urban space. It observes the process of establishing connections between places and distributing their functions by examining development planning, everyday mobility, and trade solidarity. Regarding development planning, the urbanization of the Chiang Rai border region has been considered in relation to three nodal points of border trade, Chiang Saen, Chiang Khong, and Mae Sai. These places have multitudinous connections created by merchants’ trade activities and the trajectories of their movements between cities, markets, and borders. Moreover, the emerging importance of the border in the local market creates the possibility that the border area, Chiang Rai, will be spatially and economically connected to the nearby city of Chiang Mai. These processes reveal the relational characteristics, the ambiguous coexistence between the periphery and the center, and the multi-centered urbanization of the border city.
