Unsettled Borders: The Militarized Science of Surveillance on Sacred Indigenous Land
Precarity and Belonging: Labor, Migration, and Noncitizenship
Precarity and Belonging examines how the movement of people and their incorporation, marginalization, and exclusion, under epochal conditions of labor and social precarity affecting both citizens and noncitizens, have challenged older notions of citizenship and alienage. This collection brings mobility, precarity, and citizenship together in order to explore the points of contact and friction, and, thus, the spaces for a possible politics of comm…
Automated Border Control: Criminalizing the “Hidden Intent” of Migrant Embodiment
I argue that we are entering an automated era of border control that I label a border-biosecurity industrial complex. Funded in great part by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), scientific research and automated surveillance technologies promise the state innovative and supposedly unbiased solutions to the challenge of border control and security. This article spotlights a border surveillance technology called AVATAR (Automated Virtual Age…
Les cybermariages au Mexique et en Colombie: De l’érotique du nationalisme aux modulations d’une citoyenneté transnationale
Il existe plus de deux cents sites d’agences matrimoniales spécialisées dans les rencontres internationales entre hommes états-uniens et femmes latino-américaines. Sur ces sites, les femmes d’Amérique latine sont présentées comme naturellement plus féminines, plus belles, plus chaleureuses et plus attachées à l’idée de famille que les femmes aux États-Unis. Pourtant les Mexicaines de Guadalajara et les Colombiennes de Cali mettent en avant des ar…
Spirit Matters: Gloria Anzaldúa's Cosmic Becoming across Human/Nonhuman Borderlands
In this article I situate Gloria Anzaldúa's writing within feminist "new" materialism and posthumanism. In dialogue with the spiritual in Chicanx/Latinx decolonial writing, I turn to the poetic interruptions in Borderlands/La Frontera, as well as research of Anzaldúa's unpublished archival materials, to open up the queer moments where Anzaldúa radically embodies and enters into spirited matter, or the communality with (not commonality, but commun…
Estados de amor, sexo e intimidade através de fronteiras virtuais
Feministas estadunidenses nos anos 1990, preocupadas com a natureza mutável do Estado-nação em relação aos processos globais, dirigiram suas pesquisas não somente às estruturas econômicas, mas também às estruturas transnacionais que respondiam à rápida e dispersa zona de contato e encontros que traziam pessoas para um contato íntimo. Estes casos através de fronteiras recusaram ver a globalização como uma nova formação, ao invés disso, argumentara…
Governing virtual bodies and intimacies: Cybermarriage industries between the United States and Latin America
This article explores the ways the foreign emerges as a fantasy of mobility in the Cybermarriage Industry uniting Mexican and Colombian women with U.S. men. While some women use the marketing of their bodies as passionate and erotic to attract opportunities such as marriage with U.S. men, Internet scholars during the 1990s celebrated the Internet as a utopian space for enacting oneself outside the limitations of the physical body. These theories,…
Modern Babylon: Prostituting Children in Thailand
Child prostitution became one of the key concerns of the international community in the 1990s. World congresses were held, international and national laws were changed and concern over commercially sexually exploited rose dramatically. Rarely, however, were the children who worked as prostitutes consulted or questioned in this process, and the voices of these children brought into focus. This book is the first to address the children directly, to…

The French Excavations at Minet el Beida and Ras Shamra in Syria
The excavations at Minet el Beida and Ras Shamra, begun in 1929 and continued in 1930,were undertaken at the suggestion of M. Rene Dussaud, Member of the Institute and Conservator at the Louvre. The natural harbour of Minet el Beida (the White Bayy lies facing Cyprus; and it was this fact which gave M. Dussaud the idea of a Mycenaean colony from Cyprus importing thither the copper which had to be disembarked for transport to the interior and to M…
