In the Space between Aboriginal Sovereignty and National Security

Re-engaging Border Security and Mohawk Culture at Akwesasne

New!

From: Borders, Culture, and Globalization

$2.10

This chapter considers the contributions of local leaders and communities to the ways that borderlands become “secured,” not only in the literal sense of security measures but also in the sense of being “securitized” through the institutionalization of First Nations’ participation in the implementation of these policies.
