The objective of this investigation is to discuss qualitatively the different methodological approaches developed to deal with uncertainty in decision making processes. For its preparation were used mainly the analysis of documents, the historicallogical method and the analytical-synthetic method which allowed an assessment of the state of the art in the topic.

Roving vigilantes, fear-mongering politicians, hysterical pundits, and the looming shadow of a seven hundred-mile-long fence: the US–Mexican border is one of the most complex and dynamic areas on the planet today. Hyperborder provides the most nuanced portrait yet of this dynamic region. Author Fernando Romero presents a multidisciplinary perspective informed by interviews with numerous academics, researchers, and organizations. Provocatively designed in the style of other kinetic large-scale studies like Rem Koolhaas's Content and Bruce Mau’s Massive Change, Hyperborder is an exhaustively researched report from the front lines of the border debate.

Police claimed a shoot-out and closed the case, but an investiga tion carried out by civil rights workers and journalists, of whome Nelson was one, exploded into a major scandal and cover-up involving the governor and even the U.S. Department of Justice.
