| Sumario: | This is an insightful historical work on borders and bordered existences, with special emphasis on the gender dimensions of these existences. The author argues that the experiences of women living on borders and in borderlands are definitive of those of the vulnerable communities who bear the brunt of the complex border and security issues.

Their history is one of negotiations with structures of control, leading to insecurity, subversio. |
