The University of Texas-Pan American (UTPA) has gone through several incarnations. It began as a two-year locally funded community college, which was part of the Edinburg, Texas public school district. Then, the college secured county funding. Eventually, it separated from the school district and grew into an independent four-year, bachelor degree granting, state funded regional college. In the early 1970s the college became a university.

As the magazine of the Texas Exes, The Alcalde has united alumni and friends of The University of Texas at Austin for nearly 100 years. The Alcalde serves as an intellectual crossroads where UT's luminaries - artists, engineers, executives, musicians, attorneys, journalists, lawmakers, and professors among them - meet bimonthly to exchange ideas. Its pages also offer a place for Texas Exes to swap stories and share memories of Austin and their alma mater. The magazine's unique name is Spanish for "mayor" or "chief magistrate"; the nickname of the governor who signed UT into existence was "The Old Alcalde."

In Land of Necessity, historians and anthropologists unravel the interplay of the national and transnational and of scarcity and abundance in the region split by the 1,969-mile boundary line dividing Mexico and the United States.

Though its importance is uncontestable, the role of necessity in consume...

The book reads well and is accessible without a high degree of technical ability. It would be of interest to most researchers focusing on job displacement and would be appropriate even at the advanced undergraduate level.' - Roger White, Labor Studies Journal
