Before and After: Dogs’ Biographies Along and Across the Mexico-US Border
In the Mexican border city of Ciudad Juárez, numerous animal protection organizations seek to rescue street dogs that have been abandoned or abused. Many of these organizations seek to place previously abused dogs in “forever homes” in the United States. To accomplish this, the dogs often go through a transformation that transforms them into objects of care, making them adoptable. In this article, I analyze how narratives and photos used in socia…
Gaining Voice through Injury: Voice and Corporeality in Animal Rights Activism in Ciudad Juárez, Mexico
Activism in favor of non-human animals is on the rise throughout Mexico despite ongoing and episodic violence. Activists, also known as animalistas, represent themselves as the "voice" of non-human animals as they seek rights and well-being for animals. In Ciudad Juárez, a border city once considered the most dangerous city in the world (2008-2012), animalistas engage in complex ways with non-human bodies as they seek to "speak" for them. This ar…
De jaurías, sufrimientos y rescates: Violencia Y Relaciones Entre Perros Y Humanos en Dos Ciudades Fronterizas Mexicanas
Los perros son presencias importantes en las calles de las ciudades mexicanas, sobre todo en los emplazamientos periféricos o fronterizos. El presente artículo explora estas presencias caninas en dos ciudades afectadas por la violencia, así como las relaciones que estos animales establecen entre sí, con los humanos y con los espacios, partiendo del supuesto de que los perros son entes activos que construyen alianzas, territorios, paisajes y vincu…
The Politics of Saving Dogs in Mexico
We Came for the Cartilla but We Stayed for the Tortilla: Enlisting in the Military as a Form of Migration for Zapotec Men
En años recientes se ha discutido de manera extensa el papel del ejército Mexicano. Sin embargo, aún sabemos poco de las vidas de los soldados mismos. Este artículo analiza las experiencias de hombres Zapotecos que son parte del ejército Mexicano y establece dos puntos: (1) La relación entre comunidades indígenas y el ejército Mexicano se entrelaza con fenómenos políticos y económicos más amplios; y (2) las experiencias de soldados indígenas debe…
Navigating the city: Internal migration of Oaxacan indigenous women
The relationship between migration and gender roles has received increased attention in recent decades but most of the literature has focused on transnational migration while the relationships between transnational and internal migration, and gender roles and internal migration have not been widely studied. In this paper, I analyse internal migration as a ‘transborder experience’. I argue that indigenous women from Zegache who engage in internal …
Uncertain Futures: The Unfinished Houses of Undocumented Migrants in Oaxaca, Mexico
Migration often leads to new transnational patterns of consumption, because migrants create new ways in which they, and their families, relate to material objects. The literature on migration and materiality has documented migrants constructing and reconstructing their identities, and creating relationships based on the acquisition of material artifacts. However, little is known about the affective component involved in the construction of migran…
