Through a postcolonial feminist lens, this book examines the intersection of immigration and environmental security along the U.S.-Mexico border. It investigates how security threats are perceived and articulated within U.S. institutions, including media, government, NGOs, and academia. By analyzing the discourse surrounding environmental security and immigration, the author reveals the complexities of national and civilizational security, highlighting the implications of these interpretations for marginalized communities and broader societal narratives.
