Rihan Yeh, Books, Social and Cultural Studies, Passing: Two Publics In A Mexican Border City, Tijuana is the largest of Mexico’s northern border cities, and although it has struggled with its share of the US’s dramatic escalation of border enforcement, it nonetheless remains deeply connected with California by one of the largest, busiest international ports of entry in the world. In Passing, Rihan Yeh probes this border’s role as a shaper of Mexican senses of self and collectivity. Building on extensive fieldwork, Yeh examines a range of ethnographic evidence: public demonstrations, internet forums, popular music, dinner table discussions, police encounters, workplace banter, intensely personal interviews, and more.  Through these everyday exchanges, she shows how the promise of passage and the threat of prohibition shape Tijuana’s residents’ communal sense of “we” and throw into relief longstanding divisions of class and citizenship in Mexico.   Out of the nitty-gritty of everyday talk and interaction in Tijuana, Yeh captures the dynamics of desire and denial that permeate public spheres in our age of transnational crossings and fortified borders. Original and accessible, Passing is a timely work in light of current fierce debates over immigration, Latin America citizenship, and the US-Mexican border.  .
