- Summary
- "This book is a cross-genre, cross-disciplinary study discussing how Latinx narratives in literature, photography, and film reveal the strategic interplay between free-market economy and national security, a necessarily violent process that plays out on Latinx bodies, peoples, and migrants; it shows how these texts ultimately imagine what forms of resistance or mobilization are possible while living and dying within this violence"--
