Описание: Like many western boomtowns at the turn of the twentieth century, Spokane, Washington, enjoyed a lively theatrical scene, ranging from plays, concerts, and operas to salacious variety and vaudeville shows. Yet even as Spokanites took pride in their citys reputation as a good show town, the more genteel among them worried about its Wild West atmosphere. In Show Town, historian Holly George correlates the clash of tastes and sensibilities among Spokanes theater patrons with a larger shift in values occurring throughout the Inland West - and the nation - during a period of rapid social change. George begins this multifaceted story in 1890, when two Spokane developers built the lavish Auditorium Theater as a kind of advertisement for the young city. The new venue catered to a class of people made wealthy by speculation, railroads, and mining. Yet the refined entertainment the Auditorium offered conflicted with the rollicking shows that played in the towns variety theaters, designed to draw in the migratory workers - primarily single men - who provided labor for the same industries that made the fortunes of Spokanes elite. As well-to-do Spokanites attempted to clamp down on the variety theaters, performances at even the citys more respectable, legitimate playhouses began to reflect a movement away from Victorian sensibilities to a more modern desire for self-fulfillment - particularly among women. Theaters joined the debate over modern femininity by presenting plays on issues ranging from womans suffrage to shifting marital expectations. At the same time, national theater monopolies transmitted to the people of Spokane new styles and tastes that mirrored larger cultural trends. Lucidly written and meticulously researched, Show Town is a groundbreaking work of cultural history. By examining one citys theatrical scene in all its complex dimensions, this book expands our understanding of the forces that shaped the urban American West.

Описание:

An interdisciplinary group of borderlands scholars provide the first expansive comparative history of the way North American borders have been policed—and transgressed—over the past two centuries.

An extensive history examining how North American nations have tried (and often failed) to police their borders, Border Policing presents diverse scholarly perspectives on attempts to regulate people and goods at borders, as well as on the ways that individuals and communities have navigated, contested, and evaded such regulation.

The contributors explore these power dynamics though a series of case studies on subjects ranging from competing allegiances at the northeastern border during the War of 1812 to struggles over Indian sovereignty and from the effects of the Mexican Revolution to the experiences of smugglers along the Rio Grande during Prohibition. Later chapters stretch into the twenty-first century and consider immigration enforcement, drug trafficking, and representations of border policing in reality television. Together, the contributors explore the powerful ways in which federal authorities impose political agendas on borderlands and how local border residents and regions interact with, and push back against, such agendas. With its rich mix of political, legal, social, and cultural history, this collection provides new insights into the distinct realities that have shaped the international borders of North America.
