José David Saldívar

Examines what is at stake, both culturally and politically, in recent theorizing about U.S.-Mexico border relationships. Offers a critical study of Chicano/a cultural perspectives from a diverse assortment of texts-corridos, novels, poems, short stories, punk and hip-hop music, ethnography, paintings, essays, and performance art-that challenge the homogeneity of U.S. nationalism and culture.
