Border Crossings, From Theory to Practice: Looking for Floriberto
This article is about two women's journeys to understand our own and others' border crossings in the context of the forced migration that is transforming Mexico and the U. S. We explore insights from our experiences and observations of crossing diverse kinds of borders while conducting research and applied work in Chiapas, Mexico and living and working on the U.

After graduation, Megan …

Seeking Our Own Food: Indigenous Women’s Power and Autonomy in San Pedro Chenalhó, Chiapas (1980-1998)
This article explores indigenous women's pursuit of power and autonomy in San Pedro Chenalho, a highland Chiapas township. Specifically, it describes women's grassroots initiatives since the early 1980s in the context of two social movements-the weaving cooperative movement and the Zapatista democracy movement. Within these two movements I focus on two cooperatives-Mujeres Marginadas (Marginalized Women), which is a bakery cooperative of approxim…
Women and Alcohol in a Highland Maya Town: Water of Hope, Water of Sorrow
In this well-written ethnography, Christine Eber weaves together the critical issues of gender relations, religious change, domestic violence, and drinking in highland Chiapas. . . . This is a fine ethnography that is a must-read for all interested in gender relations in contemporary Latin America. It is also one of the best current discussions on the little-studied phenomenon of religious change in Mexico. . . . Eber also provides a wonderful mo…
