Indigenous Memory, Urban Reality
Michelle R. Jacobs's Indigenous Memory, Urban Reality aims to demonstrate the ongoing costs that settler colonialism has on urban Indigenous peoples in order to “increase settlers’ accountability to Indigenous peoples and communities” (p. 26). Given the recent demand by President Donald Trump that the Washington Commanders and Cleveland Guardians revert to their previous demeaning Indigenous-referring names or face consequences, Jacob's explorati…

Mobility and leverage along the US–Mexico borderlands
After the Mexican Revolution (1910–1920), the Mexican government sought to establish a series of frontier schools along the United States–Mexico border in an attempt to keep what officials believed were its most economically valuable citizens from migrating to the United States in search of improved economic and educational opportunities. This article examines the frontier schools in three Mexican states – Sonora, Chihuahua, and Coahuila – and fo…

Mexico’s Once and Future Revolution
Daniel D. Arreola. Postcards from the Río Bravo Border
The so-called wars on drugs and terrorism along with escalating concerns about undocumented migration have placed the United States-Mexico border so centrally within our focus that it is easy to forget that most of the borderlands have long been ignored. Even when the borderlands have come into the national spotlight, our historical imagination has treated border towns as lacking in authenticity and has only focused on a few places and activities…

Land of Necessity
No Higher Law
Brian Loveman, perhaps best known for his work on Latin American militaries’ use of legalistic arguments to support the overthrow of democratic governments, provides a thorough examination of US foreign policy in the Americas from the founding of the United States to the present. No Higher Law argues that in spite of drastic changes in the international system and US domestic environment, there has been a surprising level of continuity in some of…
Explaining hydrocarbon nationalization in Latin America
Recent hydrocarbon nationalizations in Bolivia, Venezuela, and Ecuador have renewed debates about the dangers of radicals, populists, or leftists. But, while some of these presidents have acted aggressively towards multinational owners, as a group their policies have not differed greatly from non-leftists facing similar circumstances. To test our hypothesis, we provide a detailed three-variable coding of every Mexican and South American president…
Fragmented Lives, Assembled Parts
In Fragmented Lives, Assembled Parts, Alejandro Lugo examines the continuing oppression of subaltern people in Ciudad Juárez and its historical precedents, beginning with the Spanish conquest of the region in 1598. He argues that working-class life has not improved for people of color along the U.S.-Mexico border. In fact, for women (and many men) it has become harsher and more deadly. Overall, the book has a fairly narrow audience — mainly cultu…
Beyond the Alamo
In Beyond the Alamo, Raúl A. Ramos sets out to trace political and cultural identity in Bexareño (present-day San Antonio) from 1821 to 1861 in order to provide an alternative understanding of Texan secession and the persistence of Mexican culture in the region. Ramos argues correctly that this period of Texas history is almost always — though Andrés Reséndez’s Changing National Identities at the Frontier is an exception — approached from the poi…

Federalization of education in Chihuahua
This article examines the politics behind the initial centralization of primary education in Chihuahua, Mexico during the 1920s and 1930s. The article argues that the centralization of primary education was one of many tools used by the federal government to consolidate its power in the wake of the Mexican Revolution (1910–1917) and create a corporatist state. Even before the Revolution, federal officials were concerned that neither states nor mu…
