David Greig is a playwright from Scotland who has opened up to the world and has dealt with social, political and economic problems related to globalization, an issue of central focus and interest in his plays. The characters of Europe can be categorized under binary oppositions, and the main setting of the play, the train station, is representative of Europe as a continent. The existing system at this station parallels the social and economic structures seen in today's Europe. The train station, on the other hand, is the "in-between" space that connects the two poles, referring to a metaphor that corresponds to the in-betweenness in a society. The purpose of this study, putting this in-between space in the centre, is to interpret the concepts "the other" and "border" and to examine, define and describe the binary oppositions such as Europeans vs immigrants, self vs the other, solidarity vs mobility, a running system vs a collapsing system, cleanliness vs dirt and structure vs restructure within the framework of this analysis and interpretation.

David Greig İskoçya’dan dünyaya açılmış ve oyunlarının merkezine yerleştirdiği küreselleşme konusuna ilişkin toplumsal, siyasal ve ekonomik meselelerle ilgilenmiş bir oyun yazarıdır. Europe oyununun karakterleri genel olarak ikili karşıtlıklar altında kategorize edilebileceği gibi, oyundaki ana mekân olan tren istasyonu da Avrupa kıtasını temsil eden bir yerdir. Bu istasyonda var olan sistem, günümüz Avrupa’sında görülen sosyal ve ekonomik yapıyla paralellik arz etmektedir. Öte yandan tren istasyonu, bir toplumdaki arada kalmışlığa karşılık gelen bir eğretilemeye atfen iki kutbu birbirine bağlayan “aradaki” alandır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, bu aradaki alanı merkeze alarak, “öteki” ve “sınır” kavramlarını yorumlamak ve bu analiz ve yorum çerçevesinde Avrupalılar/göçmenler, benlik/öteki, birlik/hareketlilik, işleyen bir sistem/çökmüş bir sistem, temizlik/kirlilik, yapı/yapı bozumu vb. ikili karşıtlıkları incelemek, tanımlamak ve ortaya koymaktır.
