K. Jill Fleuriet contrasts the rhetoric of national political and media discourse with that of local border leaders in economics, health care, politics, education, law enforcement, philanthropy, and activism. As she deconstructs the common narrative of a border in need of external intervention to control corruption, poverty, sickness, and violence, Fleuriet engagingly illustrates the range of regional organizing, local development strategies, and community responses in the borderlands that ultimately situate the Rio Grande Valley as the true North of the U.S. national compass where the Valley goes, the rest of the country soon will follow. Rhetoric and Reality asks us to question our own assumptions, especially about those areas that drive national decisions about resource allocation, economic development and national security. 001435546 650_0 $$aEthnology$$zMexican-American Border Region. 001435546 650_0 $$aMass media$$xSocial aspects$$zMexican-American Border Region. 001435546 650_0 $$aCommunication$$xPolitical aspects$$zMexican-American Border Region. 001435546 650_0 $$aMinorities in mass media. 001435546 650_6 $$aEthnologie$$zRégion frontalière mexicano-américaine. 001435546 650_6 $$aMédias$$xAspect social$$zRégion frontalière mexicano-américaine. 001435546 650_6 $$aCommunication$$xAspect politique$$zRégion frontalière mexicano-américaine. 001435546 650_6 $$aMinorités dans les médias. 001435546 651_0 $$aMexican-American Border Region$$xPress coverage. 001435546 651_6 $$aRégion frontalière mexicano-américaine$$xCouverture de presse. 001435546 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001435546 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9783030635572 001435546 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aFleuriet, Kathryn Jill.$$tRhetoric and reality on the U.S.-Mexico border.$$dCham : Palgrave Macmillan, [2021]$$z3030635562$$w(OCoLC)1200578051 001435546 852__ $$bebk 001435546 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-63557-2$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001435546 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1435546$$pGLOBAL_SET 001435546 980__ $$aBIB 001435546 980__ $$aEBOOK 001435546 982__ $$aEbook 001435546 983__ $$aOnline 001435546 994__ $$a92$$bISE
