The Land of Open Graves: Living and Dying on the Migrant Trail Volume 36 Paperback - 2015
by Jason de Leon; Michael Wells (Photographer)
From the rear cover
"De Len confronts us with a vivid indictment of the killing fields on the US-Mexico border and reveals the brutality of global inequality in all its goriness and intimate suffering. A self-described refugee from archaeology, De Len is revitalizing the field of anthropology by blowing apart the traditional subdisciplinary boundaries. With no holds barred, he offers new paths for theory, methods, and public anthropology."--Philippe Bourgois, author of Righteous Dopefiend and In Search of Respect: Selling Crack in El Barrio
"Jason De Len has written a remarkable book. I know of no other ethnography of life and death on the borderlands that is more moving, theoretically ambitious, or powerful than this eagerly awaited work."--Mara Elena Garca, author of Making Indigenous Citizens: Identities, Education, and Multicultural Development in Peru "This book sears itself into your memory. You literally can't put it down."--Stanley Brandes, Robert H. Lowie Professor of Anthropology, UC Berkeley "An impressive piece of scholarship, The Land of Open Graves is a brilliant and important book that humanizes the realities of life and death on the migrant trail in southern Arizona."--Randall H. McGuire, author of Archaeology as Political Action "Jason De Len has written that rare and precious book--a masterful deployment of tools from across the broad spectrum of anthropology."--Danny Hoffman, author of The War Machines: Young Men and Violence in Sierra Leone and Liberia "The Land of Open Graves is a politically, theoretically, and morally important book that mobilizes the four fields of anthropology to demonstrate beyond a doubt how current US border defense policy results in deliberate death. Beautifully written and engaging, it is a must-read for the general public and students across the social sciences."--Lynn Stephen, author of Transborder Lives: Indigenous Oaxacans in Mexico, California, and Oregon and We Are the Face of Oaxaca: Testimony and Social Movements "The Land of Open Graves is an invaluable book, one full of rich ethnographic accounts of migrants, sharp analysis, and beautiful photographs by Michael Wells (as well as some by the migrants De Len encounters). It is a strong indictment of the violence migrants face, particularly of a structural sort, and it calls us to "better understand how our worlds are intertwined and the ethical responsibility we have to one another as human beings." It deserves a broad audience."--NACLA Report on the AmericasDetails
