Abstract

The changes caused by globalization and entering the age of information and communication have caused geographical spaces to be mixed and spatial links to expand to a significant extent. This increase has caused the communication functions of borders to increase significantly. However, with the spread of the Corona virus, extensive changes were made at once, and the links between geographical spaces were transformed, and the communication function of borders was greatly affected. Based on this, in the current research, which has been carried out using a descriptive and analytical method, an attempt has been made to answer the question of what effects the spread of the corona virus has had on the communication function of borders in Southwest Asia. The results of the present research show that the spread of the Corona virus has greatly affected the communication function of borders in Southwest Asia and has reduced the links between spaces to the extent that in some cases it has been replaced by a barrier function. Although the corona virus disease has been controlled and subsided to a certain extent, it seems that human societies will face many such diseases and problems in the future, and the results of the current research can provide the basis for countries' preparation and insecurity. can significantly reduce the challenges caused by these kinds of problems.The changes caused by globalization and entering the age of information and communication have caused geographical spaces to be mixed and spatial links to expand to a significant extent.
