In this third edition of Border Games, Peter Andreas charts the rise and transformation in policing the flow of drugs and migrants across the US-Mexico border. Recent border crackdowns and wall-building campaigns, he argues, are not unprecedented.

Focusing on the power of symbolic politics and policy feedback effects, Andreas traces the logic behind such buildup.

A Christian response to the needs of refugees and immigrants should reflect their commitment to Christ more than their fears or political allegiances.

Thus, would it not be beneficial to know and explore the advantages in our roots and avoid losing out, and losing deep? This is the main message of this book, Voices from Home: Wisdom from our Diasporic Roots.
