The Rebordering of North America: Integration and Exclusion in a New Security Context de Peter Andreas

The Rebordering of North America: Integration and Exclusion in a New Security Context

Editat de Peter Andreas, Thomas J. Biersteker
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 23 mai 2003
The U.S.-Mexico and U.S.-Canada borders are the two busiest land crossings in the world. Canada and the United States are each other's largest trading partners and Mexico is America's second largest trading partner with trade between the two nations more than tripling since the start of NAFTA. The many immediate ripple effects of the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon included a dramatic tightening of North American border controls and a hardening of the policy discourse about cross-border flows. This is the first book that explores the implications of September 11th and the new war on terrorism for border controls, cross-border relations, and economic integration in North America. The volume makes a unique contribution to important scholarly and policy discussions over the meaning and management of borders in an increasingly borderless (regional and global) economy, and adds fuel to broader debates over the changing nature of borders and territorial politics in a radically transformed security environment.

Recenzii

"[The] first serious attempt to examine how 9-11 has affected bilateral and trilateral North American relations. It brings together the most important North American security analysts. It provides thoughtful reflections now that the dust has settled which will appeal to decision-makers, academics and the interested citizen alike. It is a must read for anyone keenly concerned with the future of North American cooperation." -- Rafael Fernandez de Castro, Head of the Department of International Studies, Instituto Tecnologico Autonomo de Mexico
"Smart, timely, informative, and practical-The Rebordering of North America addresses comparatively and systematically the rebirth of a border between the United States and Canada and the transformation of the border between the United States and Mexico. This distinguished team of authors thinks hard and well about the people and goods that crisscross these borders legally and illegally in very large numbers, about the shared interest in prosperity and, alas, crime, and about the construction of one North America amidst both discord and cooperation." -- Jorge I. Domínguez, Clarence Dillon Professor of International Affairs, Harvard University
"The continentalization of the North American economy seemed all but inevitable until September 11th made "border security" a higher priority. With insight and breadth of knowledge, this book describes the implications of the new world of counter-terrorism on Canada, Mexico, and the United States. Andreas, Biersteker, and their colleagues have made a magnificent contribution explaining the trade-offs between border control and interdependence, sovereignty and collaboration, and security and human rights." -- Robert A. Pastor , Director, Center for North American Studies and Vice President of International Affairs, American University
"Andreas, Biersteker and their international colleagues have produced the first book to evaluate the impact of the September 11 attacks on North American border definitions and controls, security concepts and constructs. International security, domestic politics and economic integration pull policy in contradictory directions. This volume contributes greatly to sorting out the issues, illuminating policy choices and building theory for a new era." -- Abraham F. Lowenthal, Professor of International Relations, University of Southern California and President, Pacific Council on International Policy
"The Rebordering of North America astutely observes that in the present precarious context, Canada and Mexico are like two scared mice next to a neurotic elephant. The contributors explore several provocative options, both for the mice and the elephant, and make us think hard, in fresh ways. A must read for anyone interested in North America as a work in progress." -- Janice Gross Stein, Director, Munk Centre for International Studies, University of Toronto
