An anthology of essays dating from the 1890s and presenting a Mexican national outlook.
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.
Examines the writer-revolutionary's involvement in the anarchist movement that helped provoke the Mexican Revolution against the government of Porfirio Diaz, looking at his early life as the son of a wealthy hacandado, his writing for three liberal newspapers, and his death in guerilla action against federal forces in 1910. Includes bandw photos. For general readers and history buffs. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
