  1. Bringing the Battlefield to the Border
    The Wild World of Border Security and Boundary Building in Arizona

    Resource Type: Article
    First Published: 2012
    The U.S.-Mexican border has not only become Ground Zero for every experiment in immigration enforcement and drug interdiction, but also the incubator, testing site, showcase, and staging ground for ever newer versions of border-enforcement technology that, sooner or later, are sure to be applied globally.
  2. Models of Coming U.S. Interventions: Iraq or Haiti?
    Against The Current vol. 134

    Resource Type: Article
    First Published: 2008
    Ben Terrall interviews Mike Davis.
  3. Spokane vs. the Border Patrol: How Immigration Agents Stake Out a City Bus Station
    Resource Type: Article
    First Published: 2019
    Amid the Trump administration's immigration enforcement crackdown, the Border Patrol has stepped up raids on Greyhound buses nationwide, combatting what the agency claims is a "growing threat" of "alien smuggling and drug trafficking organizations to move people, narcotics, and contraband to interior destinations."
  4. Time to Unfence our view of Migration
    Resource Type: Article
    First Published: 2014
    Instead of pretending that fence-building will solve anything, it is high time that we 'unfence' our views of migration. On the one hand, this means seeking other, more humane responses to human movement, including orderly refugee resettlement. On the other, it means not seeing migration as a self-contained 'problem' in need of a security response - but rather as an intrinsic part of a world inexorably on the move.
  5. What's the Border Fence Good for? Subsidizing Mexican Scrap Metal Entrepreneurs
    Resource Type: Article
    First Published: 2009
    It was obvious from the very beginning that Bush's push for a border fence was nothing more than a political show to boost Republicans' creds with their base.

Mission Connexions exists to support individuals and groups working for freedom and social justice. We work to maintain and make available a record of the theory and practice of people struggling against oppression and for social change. We believe that the more we know about the struggles, victories, and defeats of the past, and about those who took part in them, the better equipped we will be to bring a new world into being. Connexions maintains a physical archive of books and documents, and is engaged in an ongoing project to build and expand an indexed digital archive of documents. We try to feature a wide variety of resources reflecting a diversity of viewpoints and approaches to social change within our overall mandate of support for democracy, civil liberties, freedom of expression, universal human rights, secularism, equality, economic justice, environmental responsibility, and the creation and preservation of community. We are internationalist in our orientation, but as a Canadian-based project we feature an especially extensive collection of Canadian documents and profiles of Canadian activist organizations.
