Описание:

At the crossroads between international relations and anthropology, The Migrant Passage analyzes how people from El Salvador, Honduras, and Guatemala navigate the dangerous and uncertain clandestine journey across Mexico to the United States. However much advance planning they do, they survive the journey through improvisation. Central American migrants improvise upon social roles and physical objects, leveraging them for new purposes along the way. Over time, the accumulation of individual journeys has cut a path across the socioeconomic and political landscape of Mexico, generating a social and material infrastructure that guides future passages and complicates borders.

Tracing the survival strategies of migrants during the journey to the North, The Migrant Passage shows how their mobility reshapes the social landscape of Mexico, and the book explores the implications for the future of sovereignty and the nation-state. To trace the continuous renewal of the transit corridor, Noelle Brigden draws upon over two years of in-depth, multi-sited ethnographic fieldwork along human smuggling routes from Central America across Mexico and into the United States. In so doing, she shows the value of disciplinary and methodological border crossing between international relations and anthropology, to understand the relationships between human security, international borders, and clandestine transnationalism.

Описание:

Born on the South African veldt to a San Francisco socialite and a dashing Afrikaner, Julia "Girl" Dreyer Brigden has lived many lives. Crossing the Atlantic on the Queen Elizabeth and traversing the United States in a 1953 Lincoln Continental, the family washes up on the shores of the Pacific as the cultural revolution is about to begin. Leaving home at 16 to hitchhike unaccompanied to Mexico and landing in Ajijic, Julia settles in with a cast of bohemian characters for the first of what will become many adventures... From the Golden Gate Park Human Be-In to gem trading in Jaipur, India, from flying high with the Jefferson Airplane to crashing and burning on the streets of San Francisco, Julia's story is a roller-coaster ride through the ups and downs of living an "untethered" life.
