AB  - Roving vigilantes, fear-mongering politicians, hysterical pundits, and the looming shadow of a 700-mile-long fence: the U.S.-Mexico border is one of the most complex and dynamic areas on the planet today--but too often its complexities are viewed through the myopic lens of illegal immigration, ignoring a multitude of other critical issues that include health, the environment, drug trafficking, free trade, and post-9/11 security. This book provides the most nuanced portrait yet of this dynamic region. Author Romero uses current economic, political, social, and environmental trends to project potential scenarios both positive and negative for the border at the midway mark of the 21st century. Nonpartisan in its politics and tackling issues from both U.S. and Mexican perspectives, this book is essential reading for anyone who wishes to understand and find solutions for the many intertwined issues that define this complex region of the world, and others like it. --From publisher description.
