Book Description:

Standing on Common Ground locates the roots of today's debates over border enforcement in the Sunbelt's pan-ethnic and transnational history, as cross-border ties in the 1940s among entrepreneurs and politicians, and a flourishing cultural traffic among tourists and students, gave way to economic instability and illegal labor migration.
