In Mexico and other migrant-sending countries, mass emigration prompts governments to negotiate a new social contract with their citizens abroad. After decades of failed efforts to control outflow, the Mexican state now emphasizes voluntary ties, dual nationality, and rights over obligations. In this groundbreaking book, David Fitzgerald examines a region of Mexico whose citizens have been migrating to the United States for more than a century. He finds that emigrant citizenship does not signal the decline of the nation-state but does lead to a new form of citizenship, and that bureaucratic efforts to manage emigration and its effects are based on the membership model of the Catholic Church. 606 $aReturn migration$zMexico 606 $aMexicans$zUnited States 607 $aMexico$xEmigration and immigration$xGovernment policy 607 $aMexico$xEmigration and immigration$xReligious aspects$xCatholic Church 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aReturn migration 615 0$aMexicans 676 $a325.72 700 $aFitzGerald$b David$f1972-$01043569 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910456833903321 996 $aA nation of emigrants$92468626 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02099oam 2200493 450 001 9910165073803321 005 20230809222723.0 010 $a1-60868-461-X 035 $a(CKB)3710000001065434 035 $a(DLC) 2017003617 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC5840408 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL5840408 035 $a(OCoLC)970396763 035 $a(EXLCZ)993710000001065434 100 $a20170125d2017 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cn$2rdamedia 183 $anc$2rdacarrier 200 10$aWords at the threshold $ewhat we say as we're nearing death /$fLisa Smartt ; foreword by Raymond Moody, Jr., MD, PhD 210 1$aNovato, California :$cNew World Library,$d[2017] 215 $a1 online resource 311 $a1-60868-460-1 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $aTranscribing the mystery : following the sacred path of final words -- No words for it : language changes as we approach the threshold -- Metaphors of the momentous : before we die, we announce a big event -- I leave you with these words : travel metaphors speak of a coming voyage -- Repetition, repetition, repetition : intensified language in our last days -- Nonsense or a new sense? : unintelligible language at end of life -- Words between the worlds : visions and visitations before dying -- Lullabies & goodbyes : is our first and final language unspoken? -- I'll call you when i get there : after-death communication. 330 $aA pioneering look at the hidden meanings in final words, based on personal experience and case studies. 606 $aNear-death experiences 606 $aLast words 606 $aDeath 606 $aFuture life 615 0$aNear-death experiences. 615 0$aLast words. 615 0$aDeath. 615 0$aFuture life. 676 $a133.901/3 700 $aSmartt$b Lisa$01246633 801 0$bDLC 801 1$bDLC 801 2$bDLC 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910165073803321 996 $aWords at the threshold$92890364 997 $aUNINA
