"At the center of the 2,000 mile U.S.-Mexico border, a sprawling
transnational urban space has mushroomed into a metropolitan region
with over two million people whose livelihoods depend on global
manufacturing, cross-border trade, and border control jobs. Our
volume advances knowledge on urban space, gender, education,
security, and work, focusing on Ciudad Jurez, the export-processing
(maquiladora) manufacturing capital of the Americas and the
infamous site of femicide and outlier murder rates connected with
arms and drug trafficking. Given global economic trends, this
transnational urban region is a likely paradigmatic future for
other world regions"--Provided by publisher.
