With the process of globalization,modernization,and urbanization,the study of border issues has different perspectives in different periods.The study of borders in the context of globalization has gradually turned to social boundaries,cultural boundaries,etc.,emphasizing the construction of boundaries.The construction of the boundary should be explained in a specific social context.In the context of current cultural consumption,cultural manifestation is associated with the pursuit of interests.When identity also represents a cultural symbol,the boundary as an instrumental existence is constructed.At the same time,due to the uncertainty of various factors in the social context brought about by globalization,the way of constructing and presenting the boundary also presents a series of new features.Through the interpretation of the'daily life of the practitioners in Shaanxi snack bar in Kunming,this paper attempts to show the construction process of this boundary,focusing on the daily life of the group,and expounding the boundaries of its construction from the aspects of daily life and daily life.Cause,process and meaning.As a strategic and instrumental existence,the boundary must exist Even if the construction is unconscious,it actually happens.The grand construction is the accumulation of every daily fine movement.From the perspective of daily life,the daily representation of the boundary presents strategic,permeable,fuzzy and multi-faceted,unconscious construction.Starting from the main choice of operating a snack bar,the professional attribute provides the material and social space foundation of the boundary construction,and also stimulates the emotional return of the subject,strengthens the identity of the hometown,drives the strategic cultural construction,and promotes the cognitive boundary of the group.Cultural boundaries and group boundaries are constructed.This kind of construction does not only stem from the shaping of the subject by the profession,but also the embodiment of their own emotion,culture and economic choice in daily life.The combination of the two makes them a special group that highlights the culture of the region and forms an invisible ethnic boundary.In this process,their cultural manifestations,emotional identity,and economic pursuits are unified.Through this article,I want to explain that globalization brings not only the assimilation,integration,differentiation,and isolation produced by the collision of different cultures,but also the path of independent self and beauty.From the development of urbanization to today,in the urban context of multicultural coexistence,border phenomena have always existed.Boundary construction has a"normalization"existence in daily life,and its existence is related to multiple factors in specific situations.
