Recenzje

...Félix provides a riveting ethnographic account that grounds new conceptual frameworks and methodologies for studying not only political membership of Mexican migrants but also transnationality...The book thus serves as both poetic narrative and political analysis...Concepts such as diasporic dialectics spring organically from these ethnographic encounters and from the words and practices of his research participants...The strength of this book comes from the author's intimate understanding of shifting, multifaceted borders...the important part of the research is in fact the 'accompaniment,' the use of ethnography to break down the very borders the author is interrogating, including those across the academic/activist divide.
