| Abstract
|
:
|
"As the United States hardens its border with México, how do migrants make transnational claims of citizenship in both nation-states? By enacting citizenship in both countries, Mexican migrants are challenging the meaning of membership and belonging from the margins of both citizenship regimes. Drawing on his experiences leading citizenship classes for Mexican migrants and working with cross-border activists, Adrián Félix examines the political lives (and deaths) of Mexican migrants in Specters of belonging. Tracing transnationalism across the different stages of the migrant political life cycle, Félix reveals the varied ways in which Mexican transnational subjects practice citizenship in the United States and in México. As such, Félix unearths how Mexican migrants' specters of belonging perennially haunt the political projects of nationalism, citizenship, and democracy on both sides of the border."--
