Border Games

In the third edition of Border Games, Peter Andreas examines the evolving strategies of border policing between the US and Mexico, highlighting how recent enhancements such as crackdowns and border wall initiatives are part of an ongoing escalation rather than isolated responses. He explores the political and symbolic motivations behind these policies, illustrating how they reflect broader issues of territorial integrity and authority. Including analysis of border policies from multiple U.S. administrations, the book sheds light on the complex, contentious role the border plays in American politics and international relations.
