Using oral histories and local archives, this historical ethnography analyzes how and why Mexican American individuals unevenly experienced racial dominance and segregation in South Texas.

“The Borderlands of Race will be a valuable addition to the literature on Texas, the U.S.Mexico borderlands, and Chicano/a studies. . . .

The author offers a new means for understanding the uncertain and inconsistent policies of segregation through what she calls ‘accommodated segregation.”

“Here’s the book I’ve been waiting for: a wellresearched history of the clandestine side of U.S.Mexico trade relations.

Today’s heated debates about an out-of-control border too often suffer from historical amnesia.

Díaz has given us a muchneeded historical corrective and reality check, reminding us that the border has never actually been under control.”

Guatemala-U.S. Migration Transforming Regions

BY SUSANNE JONAS AND NESTOR RODRÍGUEZ

“Without sounding too effusive, this book is something of a ‘tour de force.’

While there are books and other studies about Guatemalan immigrant communities, this book is a nice combination of theory, case study, and history. I know of no other book on Guatemala or indeed about other countries that accomplishes this. The writing is superb; the book is very readable.”

This comprehensive study of five phases of Guatemalan migration—both Maya and ladino— to the United States from the late 1970s to the present illuminates the transregional experiences of those who pass through Mexico. r ele as e dat e | 2 0 1 5 6 x 9 inches, 310 pages, 31 b&w photos, 1 map
