I. The territorial imagination -- pt. II. Mobile frontiers -- pt. III. Modalities of dissensus. 330 $aAmerican territorial borders have undergone significant and unparalleled changes in the last decade. They serve as a powerful and emotionally charged locus for American national identity that correlates with the historical idea of the frontier. But the concept of the frontier, so central to American identity throughout modern history, has all but disappeared in contemporary representation while the border has served to uncomfortably fill the void left in the spatial imagination of American culture. This book focuses on the shifting relationship between borders and frontiers in North America, specifically the ways in which they have been imaged and imagined since their formation in the 19th century and how tropes of visuality are central to their production and meaning. Rodney links ongoing discussions in political geography and visual culture in new ways to demonstrate how contemporary American borders exhibit security as a display strategy that is resisted and undermined through a variety of cultural practices. 410 0$aRoutledge advances in art and visual studies ;$v19. 606 $aBoundaries in art 606 $aBoundaries$xAnthropological aspects 606 $aNationalism and art$zUnited States 606 $aNationalism and collective memory$zUnited States 607 $aUnited States$xBoundaries$zCanada 607 $aUnited States$xBoundaries$zMexico 607 $aCanada$xBoundaries$zUnited States 607 $aMexico$xBoundaries$zUnited States 615 0$aBoundaries in art. 615 0$aBoundaries$xAnthropological aspects. 615 0$aNationalism and art 615 0$aNationalism and collective memory 676 $a700/.4581 676 $a700.4581 700 $aRodney$b Lee.$0896293 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910155246803321 996 $aLooking beyond borderlines$92002097 997 $aUNINA
