It is caught in the crosshairs of Mexico's warring cartels, and it brutally exposes the lies that we tell ourselves about globalization, NAFTA, immigration, corruption, and the war on drugs. CJ descends into anarchy as the police and military fight for drug profits, and the government and the cartels co-exist with no one in charge. A clean very presentable copy in a Brodart mylar jacket., Nation Books, 2010, 3, BridgeCity 1997. Signed by the author, super octavo softcover (Near FINE); all our specials have minimal description to keep listing them viable.

Ordering more than one book will reduce your overall postage cost, BridgeCity 1997, 0, Routledge/Manohar Publisher & Distributors, 2009. Softcover. New. Deploying the provocative idea of the subaltern citizen, this book raises fundamental questions about subalternity and difference, dominance and subordination, in India and the United States. In contrast to other writings on subordinated and marginalized people, the essays presented here devote deliberate attention to diverse locations of subalternity: in the conditions and histories of slaves, dalits, peasants, illegal immigrants, homosexuals, schoolteachers, women of noble lineage; in the Third World and the First; in pre-colonial, colonial and postcolonial times. With contributions from a diverse group of distinguished scholars, the anthology explores issues of gender and sexuality, migration, race, caste and class, education and law, culture and politics. The very juxtaposition of different bodies of scholarship serves to challenge common perceptions of inherited histories claims to American and Indian exceptionalism and promotes a new awareness, not only of shared histories and shared struggles in the making of the modern world, but of particularities and facets of our different histories and societal conditions that are assumed as being well understood, and hence often taken for granted. Subaltern Citizens and Their Histories will be essential reading for scholars of colonial, postcolonial and subaltern studies, American studies, US and South Asian social science and history. 1.
