Thesis (M.A.L.S.)

Includes bibliographical references

The geopolitical formation and reformation of the U.S.-Mexican border throughout the twentieth and twenty-first centuries situated the American citizen at the head of a global order that depends on the relationship between American citizens and undocumented migrants. At the turn of the twenty-first century, the United States relied on geographic borders by establishing these boundaries as political symbols that reified the fantasy of a hegemonic American culture. The U.S.-Mexican border, therefore, exemplifies an example of how the myth of American Exceptionalism geographically, culturally, and politically enforced the American identity through the subjugation of the undocumented migrant. While a global discourse appears to undermine the nation-state by forcing Americans to confront the influx of illegal immigrants politically, this discourse also creates an area of exception in which illegal immigrants disappear so that American exceptionalism can still exist.
