The Cambridge Companion to American Literature and Empire
The story of American literature and empire goes beyond the broad historical periodization of empire to reimagine that history. The central terms American and literature have always been tied up in US empire as well as other empires in the Americas. The word 'America,' itself the product of inter-imperial intellectual rivalry, claims the name of an entire hemisphere for one country therein. To understand the full history of American literature an…
Producing Integration
This essay examines how the concept of integration has been produced, translated, and institutionalized in Germany and the United States as a key element of policy frameworks that migranticize some people and, thus, translate them as outsiders. By combining conceptual history and translation theory, we analyze how the meaning of integration has evolved within academic and political discourse, tracing its emergence as a key category in migration g…

Framing Corequisite Reform
States and colleges nationwide are adopting corequisite reforms, where students assessed as not meeting college-readiness standards concurrently enroll in developmental and college-level coursework. Leveraging frame analysis—an approach drawn from collective action research—and interviews with 49 actors at 16 community colleges implementing a statewide corequisite mandate, we examine how institutional actors construct meaning of the status quo an…
Precarity and Belonging
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…
Indians and Negroes in Spite of Themselves
Learning and Unlearning from Ethnic Studies
This essay approaches assimilation as a process whereby the boundary between mainstream and margin blurs, disappears, or paradoxically, is reinforced. To shed light on assimilation’s paradox, it examines the American school’s dual role as guardian of stasis and agent of change, with a focus on two desegregation cases— Alvarez v. Lemon Grove School District (1931) and Mendez v. Westminster School District (1946)—the Development, Relief, and Educat…

Deus ex Machina
This essay examines the visual art of Marion C. Martinez. Her mixed media sculptures and wall hangings of Catholic images are made from discarded computer components, some of which she acquired from a dump at Los Alamos National Laboratory. Through technology, Martinez reproduces and transforms traditional Indo-Hispanic art forms and, at the same time, underscores New Mexico's history as a dumping ground for technological waste. In doing so, she …
