Human Rights Along the U.S.-Mexico Border: Gendered Violence and Insecurity
ISBN: 9780816528721 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Much political oratory has been devoted to safeguarding America's boundary with Mexico, but policies that militarize the border and criminalize immigrants have overshadowed the region's widespread violence against women, the increase in crossing deaths, and the lingering poverty that spurs people to set out on dangerous northward treks. This book addresses those concerns by focusing on gender-based violence, security, and human rights from the perspective of women who live with both violence and poverty. From the Pacific to the Gulf of Mexico, scholars from both sides of the 2,000-mile...

Fronteras No Mas: Toward Social Justice at the Us Mexican Border
ISBN: 9780312295479 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 204 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych.

Residents live and work within a region of vast economic inequalities and markedly different governments. The authors offer a civic blueprint on ways to...
