Abstract
"Border Rhetorics: Citizenship and Identity on the US-Mexico Frontier." D. Robert DeChaine (ed.). University of Alabama Press. August 2012.. --- A “border” is a powerful and versatile concept, variously invoked as the delineation of geographical territories, as a judicial marker of citizenship, and as an ideological trope for defining inclusion and exclusion. It has implications for both the empowerment and subjugation of any given populace. Anyone interested in the power of border symbology, especially in communication, geography, social movements, migration, and mobility studies would benefit greatly from reading Border Rhetorics , writes Ulises Moreno-Tabarez.
