Reviews
The Border Reader is an outstanding collection of essays on the political complexities, identities and cultures, and futures of the US-Mexico border region. The editors have brilliantly organized the volume into key themes including borders and the politics of empire building, identity formation, gender relations, migrant crossings, and border imaginaries. With its emphasis on the work of Latinx scholars, The Border Reader is an important intervention in current debates about security, migration, and the future of borders., International borders are abjection machines capable of dazzling violence. They elude easy understanding; their fungibility signals each state's intrinsic dependence upon them. They require, therefore, a multipronged analysis that The Border Reader provides by bringing together foundational essays tackling the border as both a material force and an imaginary site. This kaleidoscopic approach reveals the density of the border and its lingering wake., International borders are abjection machines capable of dazzling violence.
