Afterword
This Afterword underscores the collective interdisciplinarity of Canada-US Border Studies as evidenced in the preceding essays, particularly as they decidedly transcend the borders of individual disciplines.

Occupation, Religion, and the Voidable Politics of Empire at the US-Mexico Border
Following Ann Stoler's analysis of 'imperial debris' and Gastón Gordillo's notion of the 'void', this article examines how, in the context of the Mexican-American War of 1846–1848, imperial and religious impulses have endured from the mid-nineteenth century to the present at the US-Mexico border. Using photographs taken at different 'sites of memory' located along the 60-mile corridor that connects Las Cruces, New Mexico, with El Paso, Texas, thi…

Theorizing Border Inspections
The purpose of this article is to reconsider the 'border crossings' theoretical concept through an analysis of two seemingly unrelated social domains in the El Paso-Ju·rez region: skin-color preference and crossings at the local US inspection station. Ultimately, the article attempts to show that 'border inspections' are all-pervasive and, therefore, more common than border crossings in the lives of working class people
