A "border" is a powerful and versatile concept, variously invoked as the delineation of geographical territories, as a judicial marker of citizenship, and as an ideological trope for defining inclusion and exclusion. It has implications for both the empowerment and subjugation of any given populace. Both real and imagined, the border separates a zone of physical and symbolic exchange. 410 0$aRhetoric, culture, and social critique. 606 $aCitizenship$xPolitical aspects$zUnited States 606 $aRhetoric$xPolitical aspects$zUnited States 606 $aNoncitizens$zUnited States 606 $aBorder security$zUnited States 606 $aIllegal immigration 607 $aMexican-American Border Region$xEmigration and immigration$xPolitical aspects 607 $aMexican-American Border Region$xEmigration and immigration$xSocial aspects 615 0$aCitizenship$xPolitical aspects 615 0$aRhetoric$xPolitical aspects 615 0$aNoncitizens 615 0$aBorder security 615 0$aIllegal immigration. 676 $a304.80972/1 701 $aDeChaine$b D.
