“The Border and Its Bodies breaks away from regular treatments of migration and forces us to look at the physiological signs of expulsion, risk-filled travel and border crossing, psychological suffering, health deterioration, and untimely death of human beings whose only sin was to look for a better life.”
—Tony Payan, co-editor of Undecided Nation:Political Gridlock and the Immigration Crisis
“The Border and Its Bodies is a timely exploration of how the lives of migrants and residents on both sides of the U.S.-México line are shaped by the enforcement of militarized border policies.”—Dawn Paley, author of Drug War Capitalism
"The Border and Its Bodies is a remarkably cohesive collection. ... the articles within this book are very clear, making it a suitable text for a variety of undergraduate and graduate classes that address issues related to migration, borderlands, or public policy."—Linda C. Noel, The Journal of Arizona History
